Artificial intelligence does so many great things for us, like diagnose people with rare diseases or direct traffic for busy roads. In the Room for Debate's "Is Artificial Intelligence Taking Over Our Lives?", Garry Kasparou brings up a point that if A.I. is taking over our jobs, we should create more jobs for humans. If we don't create jobs for the people who lost them to A.I., unemployment will skyrocket. However, the question is what other jobs are there for humans? If more jobs are created for humans, won't they again be taken over by robots? Joi Ito also brought up a good point that E.I. could be dangerous if not in the right hands. However, even if in the right hands, things could still go wrong. My question is how can we make sure that this kind of technology doesn't end up in the wrong hands? Also how do we ensure that this technology is used for positive purposes?

Humans has always been able to adapt to every challenge when technology is advancing. When a machine took over a job three new ones opened up to work the machine. We as humans just need to improve,adapt, and overcome the challenge that AI and robots presents.
ReplyDeleteTechnology can take over our jobs. There’s no doubt about it. It’s happened in the past too. Machinery in factories take away the jobs of people that had them before. If we keep improving technology, there will be no need for humans. Using machinery instead of humans, will benefit the owner. The owner wouldn’t need to pay the machine money, it would need to pay the people money. The owner will obviously choose the job that benefits him. Machinery taking over jobs will decrease the employment rate, but will also decrease the amount of injuries imposed upon the people while they were performing those dangerous tasks. Ai has both positive outcomes and negative
