What is AI?

Unlike natural intelligence, artificial intelligence manifest on machines. It usually refers to the counterfeit and affects of human intelligence on machines that what humans capable of thinking and performing tasks and how they mimic their actions. Artificial intelligence machine usually performs human like tasks and work on intelligence being like solving mathematical proofs or playing chess with great proficiency.

Why it is threatening?

Artificial intelligence is no doubt a smart machine and have ability to work more smarter than humans. It performs very complex tasks and predicting behaviors more better than humans which is cool. But at the same time it is scary too because it develops such a value system and leading to questionable decisions that seriously impact our lives, which is sometimes dangerous for us.

Expert says that artificial intelligence is taking the space of human intelligence because it surpasses the intelligence of human and become a “super intelligent”.it is a higher risk for humans because it could become difficult for humans to have control over it.

All that machines or applications that require human personal information could pose safety risks as everyone has a trust issues nowadays and no one knows that, machines may be poorly designed, misused or hacked.

The biggest threatening of smart artificial intelligence to the mankind is longer-term problem introducing something radical that’s super intelligent and failing to align it with human values and intentions. It is actually the big technical problem faced by the people nowadays

Recent studies show that there is an enormous upside to artificial intelligence technology. If we focus on what’s possible today with AI, here are some of the potential negative impacts of artificial intelligence for example, in jobs automation, AI has capability to change the workplace and the jobs that humans do.

In social manipulation and AI bias, artificial intelligence is still at higher risk for being biased by the human that build it. Also in the deep fakes, artificial intelligence technology makes it very easy to make a, fake videos of real people, which may result in a mental illnesses of people. As AI machines require all human personal data and information which can be later misused by someone without an individual’s permission. AI technology can be used to spread fake news, create porn in a person’s likeness who actually is not acting in it, and more to not only damage an individual’s reputation but livelihood.

Why should we worried about AI?

AI is the type of computer science and we are talking about thinking machines which can modified enough to suppress or supersede us and makes human useless in the labor market. It may could end the race of human because the wealthiest and richest man maybe never affect but the human who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn’t compete with it and would be superseded.

Experts think that mankind exaggerating the phenomena of AI but all that agreed on one thing that computer systems rapidly take on human attributes, theirs habits of study, their abilities to predict things, and of course at the end try to satisfy them.

So the conclusion is that, this would be almost irreversible process and only targeted action now can ensure the perils of the technology are kept and human superiority is sustained for at least another century.
