Is AI Our New Godzilla?
“History shows again and again how nature points out the folly of man.”
As tech experts debate, anxious scientists wring their nervous hands, and world governments salivate over it, the onward march of Artificial Intelligence continues utterly unfazed.
Like so many other cataclysmic and world-changing events, it seems to have happened little by little and all at once.
AI has rapidly advanced in recent years, driven by breakthroughs in machine learning, deep learning, and computational power. These advancements have enabled AI systems to perform complex tasks and outperform humans in certain domains. Given the momentum and progress made, it would be practically impossible to halt the continuous innovation and improvement in AI technologies.
A motley global community of scientists, engineers, and organizations is busily pioneering AI, even now. The widespread dissemination of knowledge, collaboration, and competition in the field would make it well nigh impossible to halt progress universally. Even if regulations or restrictions were imposed in one country, others would pursue AI advancements.
In addition, AI has already found applications across diverse sectors, including healthcare, finance, transportation, and entertainment. These novel new uses have demonstrated the potential to enhance…
