The Intellify

AI to know

AI makes a machine’s ability to stimulate human intelligence. Learning, reasoning, logic, perception, and creativity earlier considered as unique features of human intelligence are today totally replaced by technology. The chatbots, robots, smart cars, logistics, banking, healthcare, and other IoT devices have marked their presence to replace human mind and revolutionizing the human life to the next level of technology every now and then.

How AI works?

Undoubtedly, the intelligent machine goes through a number of components and methodologies to reach the final result. It is build by studying the way a human brain works, thinks and decides and then, those biological mechanisms are applied to computers. Generally, the classic coding requires putting the exact inputs, output, and logic by the coders, AI provides a machine the desires input, output and lets the machine develop its own path for achieving its objectives. This makes the machines optimize a situation better than the humans. Streamlining financial processes and optimizing supply chain logistics are some good examples in this regard. The voice assistants such as Siri, Alexa, Cortana, and Google’s Assistant are the ones who quickly found the way to most customer houses. 

Is AI safe?

AI is safe until how safe the technology on which it is built upon. But it is also a fact that any device using AI is connected to Internet and all Internet-connected devices cannot assure absolute security. This is the reason we see many news related to company data breaches and some AI vulnerabilities are also seen in the devices that are not properly secured. 

The future of AI

If you think AI is the future of technology, then you are wrong as it is already here. The voice assistants and other AI-enabled gadgets are already becoming more and more prominent in our lives. They have learnt more skills and companies are building out their connected device ecosystem. From a smart home assistant to e-commerce space, there is a lot of AI is affecting human life. For the cluttered marketplaces, online supplies are invented. For immediate payment, payment gateways are invented. There are many facts that show how AI is facilitating digital transformation across different industries. 

AI Takeover

As much as the AI applications increase, people will start wondering if it is soon to erase the need of using human skills and experiences while performing different tasks. For example, an AI-enabled camera handled by a skilled and experienced photographer automatically points the snap and shot. Or AI-enabled software programs are trained to predict stocks to help people make decisions instead of the skills and intuitions of an experienced stockbroker.

Some people will argue that AI trains someone faster to have years of experience without struggling hard for years to practice. But this also affects the fundamental human values and entirely remove the experience gaining process. If we will think in this way, there would nothing be much ridiculous than getting human beings replaced by AI. 

However, this thought cannot be confirmed or rejected yet. This discussion will need a long way to go until we really get deep into the visibly positive and negative effects of Artificial Intelligence on society.
