Artificial intelligence .. End of jobs or a new beginning?

in technology •  8 years ago 

Artificial intelligence is accelerating and even amazes even developers working in this field. Currently, it employs voice support devices such as Google Home and Amazon Alexa, allowing it to have normal conversations with users and provide services that facilitate much of their lives.

In an article in the Washington Post, Vivek Wadwa says the artificial intelligence we see in the movies of the world's imagination is inevitable, and that we must be ready for it.

He says companies are integrating artificial intelligence into their products to analyze the vast amount of data and improve decision-making, and within a decade or two we will see service robots reminiscent of the robots that appeared in movies like Star Wars.

Artificial intelligence will become our guide and companion, and will capture millions of human jobs. "Technology is now moving towards an extraordinary turning point, making science fiction a reality, we cannot stop it, and everything we can to do is to understand and use them to improve ourselves and humanity. "

So, the writer, a Carnegie Mellon University professor and researcher, thinks we have to get used to artificial intelligence and "ride the wave," our mental ability to make things that have improved our chances of survival has led to natural selection to make better tools and better users.

We are now using the extended tables. To improve our memory, we were writing on stone and now we are using cloud storage. "Artificial intelligence is the next step in improving our cognitive functions and decision-making."

But he says that what worries is that our reliance on artificial intelligence may lead us to neglect human creativity. Yet the greatest benefit artificial intelligence can bring is that human beings can become free from traditional stereotypes and historical prejudice, and are more focused on enhancing their knowledge and becoming More creative.

My bones tremble, and say that it's not good :( our children will be hard.

So if automation will reshape industry and remove low skilled work, why do we need all the millions of unskilled third world migrant 'workers' that Brussels and Merkel are importing ?
