As a student, AI can take over my job anytime it wants :taesip:

(in all seriousness, I think AI will do a lot more harm than good in the future. Some of our future doctors, lawyers, etc are using AI to pass school so I hope my plastic surgeon never needs to open up Chatgpt and ask for a step-by-step process on how to perform a facelift and things like that :sanapray: )

There's always that fear of an almighty AI (like in the 'Terminator' movies). Media and influencers even promote this idea to spread panic.

We shouldn't forget that self-learning AI is at the very beginning and so far an AI system is only as good as the person that programs and trains it. AI doesn't recreate, it recombines. And that's its weakness. AI can't be creative, it can't 'think' outside the box. It doesn't think at all.

When it comes to my job, AI can help constructing PCs and even analyzing Hardware problems. But some human still needs to use a screwdriver. What about the future of AI? Who knows what the future brings? There are tendencies - but above all, forecasts are pure speculation.

I believe Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) already exists and is being kept back to prevent that very notion, panic.
that's my opinion. If I had invented a way to figure out the next Powerball combination, I'd probably refine it before I went mayhem with it on the local 6 o'clock news. Time will tell. Personally, I think it's inevitable (insert Matrix quote here ____), ASI will take over someday and we, the human race, will fight for our survival. Thankfully, I expect to be dead by then, but.............

Jobs that require empathy and dexterity will be last.
Jobs that required a keyboard, mouse and brain power will be/were first.
Some will definitely come before others. I think jobs needing dexterity will go quickly enough though, especially in dangerous environments. If a custom robot using ai can be used in a dangerous situation, why risk injuring a person when you can use some form of mechanization instead?

well said. The current human dexterity margin of error for precision tasks (Medical setings and such) is in the order of 0.04% and 0.67% due to rigorous training and checks. Providing AI can surpass this level on a constant basis, I agree, it's inevitable.

For dangerous tasks (routine/manual) however, that margin is in the order of 1% to 5%. AI should have no problem topping that very soon! I agree with you, it's a no brainer!

Robots are far more likely to be able to have precision than even the most trained people when properly trained. But for a field like medicine with dangerous surgeries, people won’t accept robots as commonplace unless they prove to be far far far far more precise than people because they have less opposition to a human accidentally killing humans than a robot accidentally killing humans. Same with self driving cars, one self driving car causing a death would International news, while one human caused driving death might not even make the lower paper. There are other factors to consider ofc, like the fact that there’s obviously way more human drivers and whatnot ofc, which skew those statistics. But there’s also no doubt that robots have to be not just better, but much much much better in order to be considered as a possible option by the general public.

I fully agree with your notions. Which is why I believe that someday, somehow, humans will be "grown", not conceived.
Having to accept any of these "enhancements" is something our aged systems aren't willing to accustom to. However, if we are "born" and "programmed" with it from the get go, it's an entirely different evolution sequence. Everything we know and "accept" in our computer programs (brains) in terms of moral is pushed in the early stages of our lives, including ethics, moral and etiquette. We entrust in the society to deliver on what we perceived to be just, fair and guidelined. A new born with no such limitations and perceptions will be far more adept to technological advances. As I stated roughly 4 posts ago, in my humble opinion, this is just as inevitable as the advent of cyborg humans in the not so distant future.

good heavens, this is getting deep lol :oliviakek:
