Who Owns the Future Due to Artificial Intelligence (AI) having the ability to learn information at an exponential rate, it is very easy to believe that AI owns the future. There are two broad types of AI, soft and hard AI. Soft AI is not intended to mimic the human brain, soft AI could be used to make a difficult boss in a video game. Hard AI on the other hand is intended to mimic the human brain, and many experts in the field are scared of what will come from the evolution of hard AI (Baer).…
narrative, uses metaphors, and you are right back on track. For example, after exploring the technical definitions of intelligence and consciousness, she writes, “Over the years, as I listened to the engineering give-and-take over the question of artificial life-forms, I kept coming up against something obdurate inside myself…….But then I had to ask myself: What else could there be?” and one, as a reader, feels the same queries she has. That way she is able to connect to the readers intimately.…

In article "Automation makes us dumb," Nicholas Carr (2014) presents that machines have the power to do most of people’s professional jobs. However, depending on machines may affect our skills, intelligence and performance negatively. Moreover, the new technologies have improved factories efficiency and productivity. Also, they succeed to provide better jobs for people with valuable talents. However, he states that “de-skill” brought about workers are turning on/off machines without needing of…
Intelligence has a variety of different meanings based of different theories. Different beings are measured by different standards and different tests. With the advent of advanced technology new questions have appeared. Can a machine be as intelligent as a human being? If so, how do we test the intelligence? There is much debate surround these questions, and tests have already been created measure the intelligence of machines. Machines are able to be as intelligent as a human being, and there…
After years of convincing myself that the robotics team of Slidell High was an organization unfit for me, I finally overcame my robotic-phobia and enlisted. The team moved with a rhythm unmatched by any other team, grinding and welding and programming without bounds. The finest gumbo of human achievement, the robotics team accepted my flavor unwaveringly. Although I felt that I was needed with the labeling and organizing, I had no particular impact on the gumbo until computer science discovered…
Artificial intelligence is becoming more prominent in the world. Technology is advancing toward completely autonomous vehicles. However, these technological innovations come with great responsibility. A completely autonomous car can be driven into a situation where a life will have to be taken. This ethical issue is a problem for the engineers, the drivers of the car and society. A variable ethical setting in a car provides controversy over what the ethical setting should be and who should be…
Artificial intelligence. The number one creation that human beings have seeked for many years, an eternal undying form of simulated life, competent of self-thought, and maintenance and protection. Human beings still have yet to invent a truly intelligent artificial imitated being though. Although, in numerous science fiction universes, Artificial Intelligence have become a part of the real world and in every day life. Good morning/afternoon, my name is Rylee, and I am here to analyse and compare…
The world of Artificial Intelligence offers profound benefits to society, along with perilous potential consequences. The outcome of the advancement of Artificial Intelligence likely lies in the hands of those who develop the field. This kind of power comes with numerous ethical questions, as to how far we as a society want to take Artificial Intelligence. Would we prefer a world without disease, or poverty, at the expense of human control over society itself? Important questions such as…
The ethics of uploading the human mind to a computer and transplanting it into something else is something that humanity will need to figure out eventually in our world. With the advancements in computer technology and enhanced artificial intelligence, the age of robots like synths is closer than we think. Francis Fukuyama, a philosopher that sat as a member of George Bush’s Council on Bioethics, believes that humans and human dignity have a “Factor X.” This Factor X is described as “Some…
