Artificial Intelligence: Analyzing Its Impact on Humanity's Future

This essay investigates the multifaceted impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on humanity, exploring whether it poses a threat or offers significant aid. The analysis begins by defining AI and highlighting its increasing role in various sectors. The essay presents arguments both for and against AI, drawing on sources such as Korinek and Stiglitz, Reuters, and Makridakis. Proponents suggest AI enhances services, reduces errors, and improves decision-making, particularly in fields like medicine. Conversely, the essay highlights the challenges of AI, including ethical dilemmas, potential for hacking, and the creation of unsustainable behaviors. The writing plan, challenges faced (timing, contradictory arguments), and solutions are also discussed. The essay concludes by synthesizing these arguments to offer a nuanced perspective on AI's future role.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

 Artificial intelligence can be defined as development of computer system that is
used to perform such activities that are generally performed by human being.
Development of technology has supported in increasing productivity and
minimising errors in operations. AI is the technique in which machines perform
cognitive functions such as problem solving, decision making etc.
 Researcher has huge interest in technologies thus; this topic has been selected for
further investigation.
 In the recent time, many companies are taking support of artificial intelligence
that impact on humanity, this has become the burning issue thus, scholar has
selected this topic.

Source evaluation

 Artificial intelligence a threat or an aid to the future
of humanity
Thesis statement

 Makridakis, (2017 )argued that AI creates challenge for humanity because
it is very difficult to analyses the acceptable artificial intelligence
behaviour.
 Hacking is one of the major drawback of AI which is illegal and unethical.
This technology is encouraging criminal activities that create problems for
human being.
 If AI is being used in the future then human maliciousness and ingenuity
would be major damage of AI, that would result harm to individual. Thus,
it is essential to stop using technologies in order to prevent people.
Main arguments (Against)

 As per the view of Reuters, (2018) Most of the engineers design
machineries by considering human safety.
 But when it comes to AI then there is no safety measures.
 Artificial intelligence is not good for humanity because it creates ethical
and moral dilemmas and promotes unsustainable behaviours.
Second argument (Against)

 According to Reuters, (2018) artificial intelligence brings extensive
modifications in society and human being life.
 People have become able to buy their desired items from anywhere. Apart
from this, this technology has supported in providing immediate services
to people and have enhance connection between people.
First Argument in favour

 Makridakis, (2017) stated that Artificial intelligence has supported in
reducing errors and making correct decision.
 In the field of medical, doctors have become able to find out health issue in
the person and become able to give them correct treatment with the use of
artificial machine intelligence.
Second argument in favour

Challenges
 While conducting the study scholar has faced the timing issue, it was
difficult to complete the entire investigation in less time because scholar
had to evaluate the facts related to AI.
 Another challenge in this research was understanding contradict
arguments.
Solution
 In order to resolve such issues researcher has to stay focus and has to
schedule activities properly. This would support in completing entire study
within given time and understanding arguments.
