Artificial Intelligence : A Boon or A Bane To Humans

Abstract

The future world can be said the world of the machines that work as intelligently as to replicate the behavior of human mind. This intelligence can be considered as Artificial Intelligence. Researchers have developed an Artificial Nerve System that could give the prosthetic limbs or robots reflexes and the ability to sense. “Avatars”[1], the replica or digital assistants are used to interact with the user. Some of the Virtual Personal Assistant like Siri, Google Now, Google Assistant, Cortana etc. respond to the user request by recognizing the voice. In May 2018, Google revealed Duplex[2], an extension of the Google Assistant that allows it to carry out natural conversation by mimicking human voice and use the filter words such as ‘hmm’ and ‘uh’. The AP Fox and Yahoo! all use Artificial Intelligence to briefly write simple topics like financial summaries, sports recaps and fantasy sports. Artificial Intelligence is also used in litigation as e-discovery, predictive coding, Natural Language Processing of legal documents ( Automated Contract Analysis). Using the Artificial Intelligence 88000 retina images can be drawn in medical area. Chatbots are used for easy ordering via text, email or face recognition. Babel Fish is a fictitious alien fish that performs instant translations. Yahoo! Babel Fish is a web translation service is one of the best features of AI to translate the users’ requests. It can not give the real time response and in the emergency situations it behaves angrily. Recently Apple suppliers Foxconn[3] replaces 60,000 workers with robots at China Factory. Sofia Robot seems to be the replica of Ex-Machina behaves like an adult with self-modification of the programs and a threat to the human life. US researchers recently unveiled Norman: also known as first psychopathic AI. Norman represents a case studyon the dangers of AI gone wrong when biased data is used in machine learning algorithms.
