How Artificial Intelligence Effect on Our lives Humans can develop their intelligence in many ways by getting into computers more and get to know more about the intelligence of technology. We know that technology has changed our society throughout history. Today, technology and human lives cannot be separated because people rely on technology, whether it is in work, school, home or anywhere else. It is good to discover new technologies and learn new thing from it but getting completely dependent on them without overcoming anything that will be harmful in certain of times. There are a lot of people are smart and can discover anything that will benefit the community. One of the methods have positive things and has negative effects is the artificially …show more content…

One of the negative effects that come from the artificial intelligent is smart machines could take away people's jobs. Greg Scoblete is the technology editor of PDN Magazine, in his article titled ”Is AI a Threat to Humanity?” discourse about how the AI could be dangerous for people and could hurt them. He writes,“ This wave of computerization could destroy not simply low-wage, low-skill jobs though those are in acute danger but some white-collar and service sector jobs previously thought to be immune as well. Technology is marching on both our manual and mental labor”(2). The meaning of this quote is our life now depend on technology whether if we are at work, schools, home, but if we develop the machines it could take away jobs from us and make us sit in the home which that will increase the unemployment in our world. Also, as people will not work, the economic will be in low wage and that will lead to poverty too. Many people are suffering from poverty these days, so if we let the technology and smart machines take all over, then the whole world will suffer too it would be high on anyone’s list. AI need to not discover anymore because its effect on people’s life and by the way they are …show more content…

We know that robot could also be dangerous for humanity. For example, they may power the autonomous weapons. The autonomous weapons is that killer robot that could pose a threat to all of us, it could hunt and kill without further human involvement. According to the research by Max Erik, an MIT physics professor, artificial intelligence could have benefits things that could help people in some ways, but at the same time, it has dangerous and negative effects that could hurt people. In his article titled ” Benefits & Risks of Artificial Intelligence,” he writes, “Autonomous weapons are artificial intelligence systems that are programmed to kill. In the hands of the wrong person, these weapons could easily cause mass casualties. Moreover, an AI arms race could inadvertently lead to an AI war that also results in mass casualties.” Here, Erik emphasis that artificial intelligence might be programmed to do something devastating that hurt people’s life and increase the violence. Also, we know that the autonomous weapon can take people's lives away if it is controlled by wrong people who want to spread hate and killing people. In addition, we know that in our society now there are a lot of people who spread violence among others and if they use this artificial intelligence which is the autonomous weapons that might be dangerous for our
