From self driving cars , robots defeating human in chess to SIRI, Artificial Intelligence has become one of the most leading trend in technology. It all came from back 80’s when the Science fiction movies had robot and the villain as robotic creatures , where they would fight the human race or movies where a human would use a robot to fight another human. Nobody has ever thought those fictions would become reality. The human has engaged itself to make machines intelligent as themselves ,so that they do work and take decision rationally. Everything has its side effects too. AI which is about to become the absolute power in technology . Robots have been made intelligent upto that point that they are ready to replace humans in space missions .The way we see the future is purely divided into two halves, it may end up in a unimaginably developed or a doomed world where the human is thrown by its own creation. Yes it might still seems to be a nightmare but Stephen Hawking, Elon Musk, Steve Wozniak, Bill Gates, and many other AI researches have recently expressed concern about the risks of AI. Maybe we encounter an AI war in future . Stephen Hawking warns that rise of robots may be disastrous for mankind. Some people believe that if robots would become more intelligent than humans than they would become the superhuman and then the superpower. The machine in turn would become evil.
Right now Ai is serving the human at it peaks. Vyommitra ,a spacefaring human robot developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation. She is a half humanoid that ISRO plans to send to space as part of test flights that will be undertaken ahead of the ambitious launch of India’s maid .Sophia, one of the most sophisticated humanoid robots . Hong Kong firm Hanson Robotics created Sophia with an advanced neural network and delicate motor controls that allow the machine to emulate human social interactions. Siri is a virtual assistant that is part of Apple Inc.’s iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, macOS, and tvOS operating systems. The assistant uses voice queries and a natural-language user interface to answer questions, make recommendations, and perform actions by delegating requests to a set of Internet services .Tesla’s self driving cars .
All these looks so soothing that’s human life would become so comfortable .But here the real problem is not every human want peace and comfort . Some are in the heat of power and money . Not every AI researches or scientist would be making a AI bot to help others , why not someone would make a bot to kill someone . Someone would use destructive methods to achieve something . Was Thanos wrong in killing half of the universe ? did he not have a valid reason or a motive to do so or he was just doing it for himself ? .Its all perspective .If we make something more intelligent than us , I don’t say it will but there are chances that it can throw us apart and its scientifically proven that AI has the potential to become more intelligent than any human
Robberies, murders, explosions, kidnapping these all would be just like a button to press and the robot would do in seconds ,just like in movies. Also thinking further , if we can make something intelligent than us , the why not they make something which is more intelligent than them , at end humans would become slaves.
If we make this world a completely AI oriented world then a small mistake or malfunctioning of the robot can cause disaster, take lives or create chaos in the whole world. Leave the world ,consider a small AI inbuilt home , a small malfunctioning of robot can burn the house or appliance ,or may put the residents into danger . We all must have seen that video where a man returned home after getting a tooth surgery and is mouth was completely swallowed up . All his door look was AI automated face and voice recognition system . As his one side of the face was completely swallowed his face was not recognized ,also he could speak so he was not able to enter his own house.
By this example I am just saying that with the comfort just comes some difficulties and mishappening events . If we see at the large scale we are not worried about these small difficulties but we are worried about AI war that may happen some hundred year after . Where there would be super intelligent humanoid be taking over the world or A evil minded person would make other slaves using these lethal AI weapons or creature bots.
I would conclude by saying right now we should only focus on flying cars which we thought would be our future ,because right now AI is a developing field , the scientists and researchers are finding more and more about it , one doesn’t know how vast and upto what it can incredibly go . Right now the only fear human has is that there can be something ,more intelligent than him .The fact that there can be an evil mind more evil than a human mind is mysterious, makes human a little scared.
