1. Do you think artificial intelligence will be a significant problem in the future?
I think artificial intelligence, in some cases, will be a significant problem in the future. Artificial intelligence is the intelligence exhibited by machines or software. If it was existed, then it will interrupt everyone’s life, even make human stop thinking and stop communicating because they will all get used to AI. Although there are some advantages like nothing in the world will never in short supply and everything is ready for digital consumption, will people accept this? I believe this may be a problem. In the video titled “The Codex Funeral”, it quoted what Leonard I. Sweet said, “The future is not something we enter. The future is something we create.” I believe that this artificial intelligence is very powerful to collect all the data from people’s computers and telephones, etc. According to the video titled “Ray Kurzweil: The Coming Singularity”, Ray Kurzweil explains that the information technology grows exponentially. The information technology doubles every one year, so these technologies will be a million times more powerful within 20 years. If it collect more and more technology and resources, there is no more privacy between human and more importantly, it will mostly happen human crisis. It is never a good news that artificial intelligence replace human being.
2. How has technology impacted your life? Be sure to support your answers with references to the required readings and films.
Technology has deeply impacted my life. Actually, we are spending more times indoors than outdoors. The time spends on the computer, television, phone etc is about eight hours a day. With these all technology I have, I feel very safe and comfortable. I am an international student from Taiwan, I cannot imagine that I live without technology. Without technology, I cannot able to contact with my family every day, I cannot able to know the news from my hometown. Without technology, I may not be brave enough to get out of my hometown. According to the video titled “Ray Kurzweil: The Coming Singularity”, Ray Kurzweil brings up that the speed that technology sharing knowledge are a million times faster than the human languages. According to the video titled “Alan Turing”, it talks about the achievements of Alan Turing. One of the achievement is a turing machine. It is to read and write symbols and write information with the dry erase marker. I believe with the improvement of technology, it is really beneficial to our life in order to make people convenient, for example, computer with fast typing communication.
