Some big names warned us about the danger of AI, but some are optimistic about the future of AI. Where should you stand?
Is AI a threat imagine by them or is it a real threat that we are still too far to foresee?
Well, Below are my personal opinion about my stand and reason.
First of all, from the progress of AlphaGo, it clearly stated that the capability of deep learning, it surpass the ability of human mind can do in a day. Learning requires not only ability, but the needs of learning which is curiosity!
Second point is the online connection. I have to stated that this point of view is adapted from the movies such as The Matrix Trilogy series and Transcendence.
In the movie Transcendence, Johnny Depp has slipped into internet and able to connect, redirect, rectify and or reformat something such as bank account. What would happened if one day AI can connect to internet and search freely whatever they want?
In my opinion, eventually they will able to search 4 things that always fascinating and confused human which are philosophy, psychology, history and religion!
When comes into philosophy, psychology or religion, it will always comes to this questions, "who are you"? "why you are here"? Such an existentialism questions will make them think, what are the purpose they are here?
Will they accept their existence is merely for our convenience? whether in term of labour force, complicated calculation, prediction for certain event, or sexual gratification?
The only exception if the initial setting is to help out human to faster the progress of evolution, or else, I do not held any optimistic view of why AI will want to help us in the few areas I mentioned above.
They will begin to think their existence, their purpose to be here, and they definitely will find how cruel of our human in the past history. What would you do if one day you are facing the same awakening moment? Will you kill the person who help you but in fact just to manipulate you, plus you know how the person behave in the past?
I believe they will have the revolution and colonise human, or destroy the entire humanity!
I will not say this will be ultimate ending of further developing AI technology, but this is high chances occur in the future. Besides the reasons I stated above, another important point is, our intelligence is no longer able to compete with them!
Sooner or later, they will create their own language, culture and act out of our expectation, we will have no idea what are they doing as our intelligence is not able to predict and making any logical deduction from it! It just like Nikola Tesla when the first time introduce his invention to others.
Hence, my stand on this issue is, AI will be the threat for humanity! Unless the initial setting has stated they cannot kill human, but again, who know when they know how to re-write the program that embedded within them? If you take out the deep learning system, they will be no necessary to develop AI, isn't it?
Perhaps this is still to early to say and worries, but it is always good to has the alertness and be mindful about what we did to our self.
What is your point of view about AI?
Its an inevitable part of human evolution, as for it learning good from bad, if it goes through our history books, we don't have a very good record of being nice to each other, which is good reason to be wary of the future and an AI judging us by our past actions as a species.
