The Age of AI


 What are the positive aspects of more and more complex artificial intelligence and machine learning?

    One positive aspect we learned from the video is the way they are using AI to detect breast cancer. The complex artificial intelligence can detect breast cancer at the earliest stages faster than the human eye which is more prone to mistakes.  Breast cancer is best able to be cured at the earliest stages which is why it is so important to detect it as soon as possible. It is also able to move faster and more reliably than a human so they would be better able to work in warehouses and other jobs similar to that. 

What are some cons of AI? 

    Some cons are it helps spread false information. It can create realistic photos that can spread lies that are hard to detect. It is also taking away jobs because they do them more efficiently. Some examples are truck drivers and warehouse jobs.  

What is something that frightened you about AI?

    Something that frightened me about AI is the fact that the government can now track us. In China, they are able to pay for things using their face because they have AI that can detect someone's face within less than a second. This means that they almost always know where you are since a security camera can always detect your face. They are doing similar things like this in the US with police cars. The police cars scan your license plates and never delete the information just in case they need it and they are able to track you and take pictures without your consent. 

This can also be a pro because they will be able to find criminals faster and are able to keep us safe considering national security using this AI detection through security cameras but, unfortunately, innocent people have to also be watched just in case it has information that could help a criminal case. 

AI can be used for good and bad concerning online security and identity theft. There are many new websites that use AI to keep all of your information safe but there are also other people that are able to hack through those AI's and get your information. This means you need to make sure you are using the right software to protect your data.
