A PPT On “Future of AI”

 WHAT IS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE?
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE is a
technique that facilitates a machine to
perform all analytic functions such as
perceiving, learning and reasoning that
are otherwise performed by humans.

“The Science and Engineering of making intelligent

machines, especially intelligent Computer programs is
Artificial intelligence”
–JOHN MC CARTHY (FATHER OF AI, COINED THE TERM AI)
FUTURE OF AI
From ALEXA, SIRI to self-driving cars, artificial intelligence (AI) is progressing rapidly.
While science fiction often portrays AI as robots with human-like characteristics, AI can
encompass anything from Google’s search algorithms to IBM’s Watson to autonomous
weapons. With the rate at which technology is improving it is logical to believe AI will
continue to get more and more sophisticated with time.
Let us imagine two kinds of future of AI:
 Positive

 Negative

“Artificial intelligence[AI]is going to change the world more

than anything in the history of mankind. More than
electricity.”— AI oracle and venture capitalist Dr. Kai-Fu
Positive future of AI
Transportation

Manufacturing
What will the
impact of AI be Healthcare
on these things in
our future? Education

Media

Customer Service
 Transportation: Autonomous cars will one
day ferry us from place to place.
 Manufacturing: AI powered robots will work
along side humans to perform a limited range
of tasks like assembly and stacking, and
predictive analysis sensors keep equipment
running smoothly.
 Healthcare: In the future, comparatively AI-
nascent field of healthcare, diseases will be
diagnosed more quickly and accurately, drug
discovery will speed up, virtual nursing
assistants will monitor patients and big data
analysis will help to create a more
personalized patient experience.
 Education: Textbooks will be digitized with the help of AI,
early-stage virtual tutors assist human instructors and facial
analysis gauges the emotions of students to help determine
who’s struggling or bored and better tailor the experience to
their individual needs.
 Media: Journalism is harnessing AI, too, and will continue
to benefit from it. Bloomberg uses Cyborg technology to
help make quick sense of complex financial reports. The
Associated Press employs the natural language abilities of
Automated Insights to produce 3,700 earning reports stories
per year — nearly four times more than in the recent past.
 Customer Service: Last but hardly least, Google is working
on an AI assistant that can place human-like calls to make
appointments at, say, your neighborhood hair salon. In
addition to words, the system understands context and
nuance.
 Negative future of AI
Automation-spurred job loss
As AI grows more sophisticated
and ubiquitous, the voices Privacy violations
warning against its current and
future pitfalls grow louder. The “Deepfakes”
tech community has long-debated
the threats posed by artificial Algorithm bias due to bad data
intelligence. Automation of jobs,
the spread of fake news and a Socioeconomic equality
dangerous arms race of AI-
powered weaponry have been Market volatility
proposed as a few of the biggest
dangers posed by AI. Automatization of weapons
 Job automation: It is generally viewed as the most immediate concern. In many industries,
particularly but not exclusively those whose workers perform predictable and repetitive tasks,
disruption is well underway. An even newer Brookings report concludes that white collar jobs may
actually be most at risk.

 Privacy, security and the risk of “deepfakes”: Malicious use of AI can threaten digital security,
physical security political security. AI will also give rise to hyper-real-seeming social media
“personalities” that are very difficult to differentiate from real ones. The same goes for so-called
audio and video ”deepfakes” created by manipulating voices and likenesses. Using machine
learning, a subset of AI that’s involved in natural language processing, an audio clip of any given
politician could be manipulated to make it seem as if that person spouted racist or sexist views when
in fact they uttered nothing of the sort. If the clip’s quality is high enough so as to fool the general
public and avoid detection. This can completely derail a political campaign

 AI bias and widening socioeconomic inequality: Widening socioeconomic inequality sparked by

AI-driven job loss is another cause for concern. AI has the ability to circulate tendentious opinions
and false data that could poison public debates and even manipulate the opinions of millions of
people, to the point of endangering the very institutions that guarantee peaceful civil coexistence. AI
is developed by humans and humans are inherently biased.
 Autonomous weapons and potential AI arms race:Unlike nuclear
weapons, they require no costly or hard-to-obtain raw materials, so they will
become ubiquitous and cheap for all significant military powers to mass-

produce. It will only be a matterWEAPONS

market and in theRACE
hands of terrorists, dictators wishing to better control their
populace, warlords wishing to perpetrate ethnic cleansing, etc. Autonomous
weapons are ideal for tasks such as assassinations, destabilizing nations,
subduing populations and selectively killing a particular ethnic
group. Autonomous weapons are becoming increasingly worrisome-
especially in the hands of the wrong people.
 Instability of the stock market caused by algorithmic high frequency
trading: Have you ever considered that algorithms could bring down our
entire financial system?  Algorithmic trading could be responsible for our
next major financial crisis in the markets.  Algorithmic trading occurs when a
computer, unencumbered by the instincts or emotions that could cloud a
human’s judgement, execute trades based off of pre-programmed
instructions. These computers can make extremely high-volume, high-
frequency and high-value trades that can lead to big losses and extreme
market volatility. Algorithmic High-Frequency Trading (HFT) is proving to
be a huge risk factor in our markets.
