With all this in mind, it is important to begin by examining what exactly is Artificial Intelligence and how robots will affect the economy and unemployment rates throughout society.
Artificial Intelligence is the science of making computers that perform several different tasks that require human intelligence, such as visual perception, decision making, and translation between two different languages. According to the Atlantic News, in the article “Will Humans Still be Humans in an Age of Artificial Intelligence”, author Megan Garber argues that robots are taking over humanity 's jobs. She emphasizes that Artificial Intelligence will begin to advance and do more and more things.

Big corporations have already begun replacing workers with Artificial Intelligence due to the fact that robots have no emotional boundaries. Having no emotional boundaries allows them to perform their job without having emotions or personal problems getting in the way. In the article, “The Dawn of the Age of AI” author Andrew Mcafee explains how a women was introduced the the OrCam system, she clips her glasses onto a combination of a digital camera and speakers. If she points her finger at a source of text the computer system quickly analyzes it and then the text is read via speaker. Mcafee states, “OrCam or similar innovations show that this is no longer the case, and that here again technology is racing ahead[…] Reading text ‘in the wild’ has been another area where robots have outpaced humans” (Mcafee). In other words even though Orcam may seem trivial, it is in fact crucial in terms of today’s concern over humanity. Artificial intelligence is winning by reading text out loud to people instead of humans reading it themselves, this will soon outsmart humans no matter the case. In Nick Bilton 's New York Time article, “Artificial Intelligence as a Threat”, he examines artificial intelligence in robots. Society often thinks that Artificial Intelligence will always be

    I remember when the world was a better place. I may only be eleven years old, but the latest breakthrough in technology, the one that doomed mankind, only happened three years ago. That's when Harvard University developed a fully-functional AI robot. It was only so long until they took over jobs, and unemployment became an issue for the human race.

    What Impacts do Robots Really Make? In “All Can Be Lost,” Nicholas Carr, writer of NY Times, Wall Street Journal, and Wired, warns that the advancement in technology can lead to the deterioration of human skills. Carr explains that humans are so involved in finding ways for robots and drones to do their jobs that they are forgetting how to innovate and translate information into knowledge. Losing the ability to translate information also limits humans from being able to think deeper and try and understand new topics.…

    in 1942, author Isaac Asimov wrote a landmark science fiction book introducing three laws of robotics entitled “I, Robot.” These laws set the groundwork for a multitude of books, movies and other media including the modern movie “I, Robot” based loosely on one of Asimov’s short stories. The popularity of this sub culture highlights the curiosity of AI as we expand our technology. The recurring fear that something man made could overtake us has been one explored often and frequently, which is why Carr’s work comes as no surprise. Carr cites sociologist Daniel Bell when it comes to the use of the technologies we create: “as we use...the tools that extend our mental rather than our physical capacities — we inevitably begin to take on the qualities of those technologies.”…

    In many respects technology not only helps us complete tasks, but do them more efficiently. Technology is helpful in nearly every aspect of life, such as commuting to work and completing complex tasks. The artificial intelligence (A.I.) presented in society today and in Ray Bradbury's short story "The Veldt" both illustrate examples of ways in which technology can provide both benefits and detriments. Within “The Veldt” we see many examples of artificial intelligence from the nursery to the dining room table. These technologies prove helpful and practical in many respects, yet they also show threats to everyday life.…

    In Better than a Human: Why Robots Will-and Must-Take our Jobs by Kevin Kelly, the author voices his opinion about how robots will eventually replace humans in the workforce and how, according to the author himself, “The robot takeover will be epic.”(301). The article describes how all jobs from blue collar to white collar will no longer need to be done by humans, but yet gives no clear evidence or any information on how this will happen. The author doesn 't provide any strong supporting details to back up his claim and what make matters worse is that he contradicts himself further in to the reading saying how we will be working alongside with the robots as well. The article is completely one sided and doesn 't provide repercussions or backlash…

    Many themes have been present over the course of the book; A Space Odyssey, Some themes show that the progression of humanity comes with a great cost, though the theme that stuck out both to me and the other readers was that dependency and the trusting of technology can be very perilous. This theme sticks out the most due to the fact that it is very relatable to the real world as new, more advanced technologies emerge and the other reason being how technology affects the characters in the novel. I personally believe that we are commencing to get too affixed to technology, the average teen says that they can’t live without their phone, or television and with new technology being revealed every day such as the Hoverboard, IO Hawk and much more,…

    As technology continues to advance with every passing minute, it seems as if the idea of robots taking over human jobs, whether it be physical or intellectual, no longer seems too far off from reality. While it currently seems likely that machines are on a path to take over human jobs, many still feel uncomfortable with this becoming their reality. Kevin Kelly in his persuasive essay, “Better than Human: Why Robots Will-and Must-Take Our Jobs, assumes that his audience is anti-machine job takeover, and attempts to persuade his audience through the use of logos. Kelly heavily relies on logos throughout his essay, it becomes his crutch as there is insufficient amount of strong evidence that prove his claim.…

    The world of artificial intelligence is advancing at a rapid rate with robots becoming increasingly human like everyday. Advancements in these technologies requires us as humans to understand the benefits and the ramifications of introducing this scarcely understood technology into our everyday lives. Blindly allowing a new form of intelligence could be potentially catastrophic if not fully understood as the stability of these technologies are yet to be understood. Within Isaac Asimov's story “Liar!” he attempts to humanize the robot to distance it from the Frankenstein Complex.…

AI is applied in software or machines From the research I did, the scientists are investigating on two type of AI, one AI is that it has its own personality, it can acts as human, has own emotion, feel what human can feel and its own thinking, so singularity. And this AI has self learning program so it is like human can learn from experience.
