Should We Fear Or Learn?

Hello Community Happy Tuesday to you all, I hope you had a good night an d you enjoyed the rain like I did yeah.... It's another interesting week and also an interesting topic from the table of the Sci-fi Multiverse, without further ado .... Let's dive in!

So you know these days, if you are not hearing about AI , then you are probably living under a rock, because you see, AI is everywhere now, From the moment you unlock your phone, to using filters on Snapchat, to going to typing something on Google, AI is just silently chilling in the background.

Now, if you ask me what I think about AI, hmm... I will say it is like a double-edged sword you can use and cut meat, and you can use to wound someone..... You get?lol..

So I think the original idea behind AI was to use to assist humans to help us do tasks faster, smarter, and easier ,Like someone sat down one day and said, “What if we make machines that can think a little like us? That way, we will not have to do every single thing manually.” And honestly, it just makes sense.

So Imagine this , writing thousands of lines of code to analyze data, or spending so many hours searching for just one thing on the internet, Now, with AI, it can take less than a minute, you get ? It is like having your own personal assistant always awake, never tired, and does not complain (well, not yet sha).

But let us be truthful, it is not everyone that is smiling about AI.

You know some people believe AI is gradually replacing human effort, Like, go to some banks now, machines have taken over basic customer service roles yeah... Even in creative fields AI can now write stories, compose songs, edit videos, and even draw better than some humans people . And that makes people feel like their jobs are at risk or like machines are taking over their space. You get that kind of thing?

For me, I am kind of in between. I see the good, and I also see the scary side of it, Let me just explain myself further

See the good side of AI is plenty. First of all, productivity is increasing or let's say has increased , businesses are moving faster,even students can now do better research , and so many other kind of things like that.

Another sweet thing about AI is in healthcare ,doctors now use AI to detect diseases earlier and even predict illnesses before symptoms start showing, That alone can save lives.

But... now let us talk about the other side.

The scary part for me is how dependent we are becoming ,Like, if your phone or laptop doesn't work, it is like your brain will not be able to function well again, You will just sit there confuse, also imagine people who use AI to cheat in exams or fake someone else’s voice or face that one is just pure scary and it happens plenty times.

There are also privacy issues, These AI tools sometimes collect data from us, and we dont even know where the information is going to, Sometimes you will be talking about something random like shoes and next thing, your feed is full of shoe adverts. Tell me that is not weird?

Okay.... Now to the big question ,If I had the power, would I stop AI?

Nah...... I will not.

Why? , Because AI is not the enemy, It is how we people use it that determines if it becomes good or if it's bad, The same knife we use to slice tomatoes is the same knife someone else could use to harm another person, you get it? Does that mean we cancel knives? No.... so we just learn how to use them properly.

So instead of banning AI, I will prefer that there are proper regulations in place.

So ,I think AI has come to stay, whether we like it or not ,It is already part of the digital world and the best thing we can do is to learn how to live with it, guide its use, and make sure it works for us, not against us.

Like they always say too much of anything is bad, so let's try to balance it.

Because who knows, in a few years, you might just be arguing with your AI toaster about how dark you want your bread. That kind thing! Lol...
