The Future of Artificial Intelligence (Part 2)

in science •  7 years ago 

AI

Artificial intelligence agents come in soft forms, such as applications, software, algorithms, programs of all kinds, and solid forms, such as robots, motorless cars, smart watches, and other gadgets. They replace even employees and perform functions that were considered a few years ago beyond the limits of technological turmoil: indexing images, translating documents, interpreting x-rays, sounds of birds, extracting new information from large data sets, and so forth.

Digital and automation technologies have replaced workers in agriculture and manufacturing for decades, now covering the services sector. More old occupations will continue to disappear, and while we can only guess the magnitude of the next turmoil, we should realize how dangerous it is. Any job where people work superficially is now in danger—between GPS and cars, documents in different languages, ingredients and final dish, or similar symptoms and diseases.

But at the same time, new jobs will emerge, because we will need new intermediaries between automated services, websites, artificial intelligence applications, etc. A person will have a translation review provided by artificial intelligence to make it accurate and reliable.
