Introduction
Artificial intelligence, the study of computer programming where it is studied that, how people
can make a computer to learn and think like a human being. In this way, computers become
smarter than in previous times. Along with time, human beings need to make their computers
smarter enough where all of these computers are enabled to perform tasks which require human
brain berated intelligence (Flach, 2019). . This study, research, and development of Artificial
intelligence (AI) were originated in the initial period of Nineteenth century, 1960 when it was
utilized mainly in computer gaming and in its checking related activities.
Discussion
Research and development have enabled these Artificial intelligence-related activities enough,
which now makes computers ready to tackle all the tough problems, which save time and cost of
human beings. Artificial intelligence needs domain experts, knowledge engineers and users to
continue their expertized activities (Handelman et al., 2019).. Knowledge experts are the
mavericks who implement different kinds of activities and power within computer through
research-based procedures. Nowadays Artificial intelligence is highly appraised in the field of
robotics, and their language interpretation power. It helps in the processing of language,
designing of complex factors, along with artificial intelligence helps in comprehending different
kinds of visions and images across surroundings. Along with time, needs for implementation of
artificial intelligence has been increasing day by day (Yeoh, P., 2019).
In a logical manner, robotics and machinery are coming into the vision of human beings in such
a way where human beings will be able to depend upon such machinery. Artificial intelligence is
no doubt a great blessing of scientific and technological advancements. . It includes hacking of
computer or database, malware attack in the database along with a viral attack in the accounting
departmental databases also. However, artificial intelligence has helped human beings to make
direct control over all of certain things. Artificial intelligence will be a great strength to the next
day society because it is the only power, which can enable human society to control their car,
mobile, accounts and all our requirements from their home only through maintenances of an
internet connection (Casas Roma, 2019). However, in future utilization of artificial intelligence
3

will hamper the organizational hierarchy, economic situations, and people’s employment-related
fields. If after 20years all of these things would be controlled by artificial intelligence, then it
will be very problematic to provide cognitive employments to the young society. As a result, it
will hamper the economic cash flow. Above all, it is highly crucial to make an overall control of
these AI based things to the human where the human brain will be the comptroller of all these
super smart gadgets (Iphofen and Kritikos, 2019). In this way, human civilization will be
exhausted. In most of the cases, artificially intelligent things are made of to make some
constructive things but there are enormous activities, which may input and helps the artificially
intelligent things to provide some programs in a destructive mode to achieve their goals. It will
make a great interference in the human civilizations.
It was recently argued in the 2015 Puerto Rico Conferences where it is analyzed by researchers
that, it will take more tie but definitely human level strong artificially intelligent things before
2060. It is found to be present from technologically advanced countries that, artificially
intelligent things are very crucial in the improvement of error rate and maintenances of accuracy
in the accounting related tasks and others. Utilization of such things will result in nil level of
calculation errors and greater precision level. In this aspect, the accuracy rate of calculation,
logarithmic activities and others will be present also. On the other hand, in the future, artificially
intelligent robots, space cars, spacecrafts will be the way to make different kinds of space
explorations, lunar mission, and others. It will definitely help human beings to open a new
horizon in the space-related activities, As a result, it will decrease the chances of human
casualties also. Above all, artificially intelligent things are machines, so they have the power to
tolerate deadly environmental condition out of the earth. It will be a great time and cost saving
effective thing.
Intelligent robotics and humanoids have the power to reach different nadir points of the earth. As
a result, such instruments can be easily implemented in dragging of fuels from earth core places.
It can be utilized in a high amount for digging and mining purpose. Above all, these machines
will be intelligent enough that is why it can be utilized as a digging and mining machine very
effectively. But, rather than such important aspects of artificial intelligence, it is important to
make some hard or laborious tasks. As a result, these intelligent machines have the power to
4

make vigorous power and replace human labors, which can make economic aspects (Yokoi. and
Nakayachi, 2019, p. 1819).
Artificial intelligence is highly important in mobile and smartphones where artificial intelligence
is highly implemented. It can be an example raised by spelling checker, weather forecasting, and
making enormous kinds of machines also. Nowadays there are enormous different applications
also like SIRI where the application deals like a professional personal assistant. It helps in GPS
and MAP providing assistance, caller’s intimation and many others. All of these activities are
helpful mostly for human civilization. On the other hand, artificial intelligence is very important
to detect frauds from financial institutions and others. It is a very helpful process to organize,
control and manage all kinds of reports. Along with these advantages, artificially intelligent
machinery has some problems also. One of the most important disadvantages is a high level of
maintenances and repairing cost. To adjust to changing situations, there is a need to upgrade
different kinds of software and programming (Purohit and Pandey, 2019, p. 16). . It will help
them to overcome change management related time. As intelligence and impulse with the
nervous system is a gift of nature to the human civilization so it is important for them also to get
an optional way to implement the human-based intelligence system in the artificially intelligent
issues. After providing all kinds of intelligence systems in the artificially intelligent systems, so
there is a great risk in the employment aspect.
It is discussed previously that, after some decades when artificially intelligence based, machinery
will be able to perform all the works like accounting, and others, it will reduce the human labors
and employment rates. Artificially intelligent machines are very important in the learning of
things, problem-solving activities, reasoning, and understanding or interpretation of languages
(Hager et al., 2019, p. 406). On the other hand, it gathers different kinds of sensors or human
based inputs. Artificial intelligence has enabled human beings to be intelligent enough where
computers can understand the speech and voice of human beings, they are enabled to recognize
the face of the owner of the gadgets. From all of these aspects, it can be said that artificial
intelligence has helped a lot to develop a human society where there is many accuracies (Kaplan
and Haenlein, 2019, p. 22). Utilization of these levels of accuracy in recognition power and
others is present in enormous gadgets where touches of human beings are already registered. It
is built in enormous applications where human beings have to provide some hints about their
5

writing and the entire piece of writing is solely prepared by artificially intelligent machinery
(Yeoh, P., 2019).
In the field of medical sciences and mainly medicines, there is a great role of artificially
intelligent machines. In the presence of artificial intelligence, it is possible to provide medical
services towards the patients and other service users to provide medical services in the absence
of human medical service providers. In assistance with robotics-based sophisticated activities, it
gets the computer-based visionary power and signaling activities. With the help of artificial
intelligence, there is a great thing that, a human doctor can operate enormous artificially
intelligent robots and continue their activities to make a common treatment to their patients of
different places. It is completely dependent upon computer-based comprehension power,
visionary power and visual imaging systems (Brett, 2019, p. 300). Artificial intelligence based
machinery will be super strong where nanotechnology-based formulae will be implemented in
the computing activities. Improvement in artificial intelligence in this sector helps in the
protection of the country but the implementation of artificial intelligence may help in the
maintenances of offensive terrors. Through utilization of these things may help the country to
improvise their activities to save millions of lives (Muraszkiewicz, 2019., p. 31).
Artificial intelligence has also a great role in the educational activities. It is found to be present
that, in more than 20 years of time, there is a vigorous utilization of artificial intelligence in
education. Through the utilization of these systems, the student can stream their video classes
from any places and any time. It is both of time and cost-effective. On the other hand, this
artificial intelligence has the power to provide the audio-visual mode of educations. It helps the
students to memorize in a better way. As a result, it becomes a very effective way of the study
also. Artificial intelligence is the right way for education but it has no power to provide
personalized programming to provide attention to all students, which are normally present in the
human tutorials. It is found to be present in different surveys and analysis that, this intelligent
dependent learning system provides a great motivational environment to the students. As the
entire AI based study procedure is ready to serve in nature so here all the students get the
measurement about their improvement, their activities and their places among all other students.
Flexibility of environment, availability of materials and providing all of these in a student-
friendly manner help the students to learn all things in an effective manner. For all of these
6

reasons educational activities and artificial intelligence based machinery are very popular across
the world (Montes et al., 2019, p. 355).
Currently, all of the financial organizations, banking institutes, and others clearly depend on
different kinds of software. This software is very accurate during performing their analysis of
data and assists human beings to make a proper assumption or analysis of data. In this aspect,
stock market analysts have got a great assistant like artificial intelligence. Nowadays in most of
the developed countries, stock markets and trading activities are completed along with the help
of artificially intelligent assistants without any interruption of human moderators. Weather
forecasting and taking proper precautions before fishing activities in the sea before storms are
very helpful in coastal countries. On the other hand, it is very important for mining engineers and
others before any kinds of earthquakes. In daily use purpose, airlines system very closely relies
upon these artificial intelligence activities. Nowadays NASA and most of the space organizations
very crucially utilize and implement the artificial intelligence systems where most of the space
crafts are completely manned by robotics. In some of the manufacturing companies, the entire
manufacturing activities are totally controlled by robots instead of human beings (Hager et al.,
2019, p. 406).
Actually, it is very easy to install and it needs only a one-time huge investment. However, it is
also a definite thing that artificial intelligence will be utilized in a positive manner in the near
future to make a smart future to the entire universe. It will help them to develop a strong
immunity power to the computers. As a result, in the near future, those kinds of cyber attack will
be arrested. On the other hand, in the medical treatment, artificial intelligence is able to make a
thorough check-up of medical service users only through the instruction of the doctors.
Nowadays AI is also a part of research to find out the way that, artificially intelligent things will
be able to protect human beings from all kinds of diseases and other things. In this aspect, the
implementation of artificial intelligence in the nanotechnology will provide a thorough pathway
for the scientists and researchers to get a proper way of different complex issues. It is found to be
present in different webpages that, scientists are also researched a lot about the controlling
systems and measurement improvement of the robotics and humanoids. It is discussed previously
7

that, artificially intelligent machines have the cope to be self-improving in nature and as a result,
it may create a great explosion at any moment. Otherwise, after the implementation of artificially
intelligent machines in the offices and institutions, there will be a great issue in decision-making
activities (Muraszkiewicz, 2019, p. 35).
Conclusion
From the discussion, it can be found that in the near future artificial intelligence will be the best
friend of human civilizations. From medical treatments military operations along with other
activities there is artificial intelligence. But along with good sides there are some dark sides of
artificial intelligence also. In this aspect, researchers have to emphasize upon the level of
developing the artificially intelligent machinery, which should have some of the important things
like impulse, sense, feelings and other human level intelligence, which is natural for human
beings. It will help them to take proper decisions.
