What is it?
Artificial intelligence has come a long way. They can now imitate human responses. chat GPT has now greatly impacted post-covid society which is still recovering from it. From the seminal paper of Alan Turing's "Computing Machinery and Intelligence" to enjoying mindful conversations with a chatbot this is where we need to ask is it required?
yes, chasing the low-cost efficient lifestyle; we may say we need it. the hidden meaning is by how much. we already use a lot of technological miracles. They are considered home appliances these days, these home appliances have more computing power than the spacecraft that took humans to the moon. So the next question is......
Why is it?
We don't need the technology for our survival. during the cold war, we created weapons that can destroy places that we didn't even want to destroy. most of the geopolitical escalations have been de-escalated because two nations with nuclear power were involved. So what are we trying to prove here?
At the end of the day, we still are the same beings not much different than other mammals. The reason to bring up these topics are the escalations are averted because we are humans, we consider ourselves a rational animal. Technology like AI also can be weaponized, we know a small amount of intelligence is needed for putting a man on the moon. we already have the resource to create an intelligent system that can think and make decisions based on trained scenarios. It can also come to conclusions that we may not expect it to. Think again do we need this tech to be made available to everyone?
Using it is not the problem, but how we use it is the question here. so instead of running to make applications out of it, let's take a step back and ask ourselves; is it really required, or same objectives can be achieved by non-AI techniques. It is your answer that builds the future.
for future Skynet - you are awesome!😁
