6 Risks humans faces due to massive adoption of Artificial Intelligence

Hi! Hope You are Well!

Six risks listed should be identified and combated from the massive adoption of Artificial Intelligence. Doing it intelligently and ethically will determine the success of implementing these technologies.

1: Impact On Behaviour

The first example we already see daily in many houses. Children treat virtual assistants rudely since Alexa or Siri obey without asking them to please. The risk is that children can transfer these behaviours to their relationships with people. Children are more curious but less educated.

2: Artificial Stupidity

It is increasingly more work to fool the machines. But it is possible to do it. "We imagine that there is a small human brain inside the computer, but no, it is only programming and mathematics", explains Meredith Broussard, author of the book Artificial Stupidity. They are not infallible: there are makeup and costume techniques to fool facial recognition systems. Rouyet explained that work must still be done to achieve fully efficient Artificial Intelligence.

The artificial intelligence system used by judges in the US as an advisor is biased and tends to discourage black citizens from freedom more often than whites. The algorithm analyzes 173 variables none of them is race and gives a probability of recidivism from 0 to 10. The problem is not the machine but the risk that the judge delegates.

4: Unintended Consequences

In July 2017, all the alarms went off. Two Facebook chatbots had developed a language that their programmers did not understand. It was, however, a simple programming error. Ramon Lopez de Mantaras, a CSIC expert in artificial Intelligence, maintains that no machine has intentions and never will.

The video of Barack Obama insulting Donald Trump went viral in the United States. And yet it was false. Artificial Intelligence can become very dangerous for our society if we do not use it with the appropriate ethics. In this case, this video is created by Fake App, with the help of Adobe After Effects. This software uses machine learning to scan people's faces in a video, which can be very harmful.

6: Impact on Employment

According to research, almost 14% of the employment rate will be affected due to robotics worldwide. Robot rights Finally, the also president of the Think Tank "We the Humans" asserted that robots should not have rights because they do not have responsibilities either. "Today a robot is not free, therefore it should not answer to anyone. It is the people who are behind an intelligent system who will have to respond if necessary", he said.
