Reflection on The Age of AI
The PBS Frontline is one of the many media sources that has well-documented discussions and journalism present. Frontline provides up to date news that is followed by its documentary, The Age of AI. The documentary takes on the pace of AI and its promise and danger within technology that is remodeling the globe at its fastest pace by people. I have mixed opinions on the Age of AI because while I am very glad that we are coming up with advanced technology every day, I don't want this to go too out of hand. I think AI can have good uses and it can have bad uses. For example, ChatGPT is one of the more popular AI tools that some use. I belive using it to help understand a tough concept or idea is fine. But once you start telling it to do projects andassignemnts for you that's when it becomes a problem for me.
The Positives of AI Being Spoken For
AI is remodeling many other fields, ranging from medicine to money, and is on its way to proving its merit of upgrading life. AI is supporting disease identification and disease identification early on, hence offering better therapy within medicine. AI technologies also make processes within every company better by increasing productivity along with eliminating or keeping to minimum amount of errors to the maximum possible within areas that need correctness like money handling and manufacturing. Aside from that, AI is making scientific exploration better, including climate modeling, exploration of outer spaces, and medicine, using new devices to accomplish complex global challenges. Whereas the benefits of AI are evident, gathering big amounts of people's data has brought tremendous issues of privacy.
The use of AI
On the positive hand, AI's power to suggest what individuals like is enhancing life, that is shopping life or life of experience entertainment. But the loss of people’s privacy by others. The AI-based system collecting greater amount of information is problematic on ownership of that information, use, is there possible your on-line persona? The most problematic of issues of gathering of information is that of balancing that gathering of information versus its possible use or misuse. For its balanced discussion of AI versus privacy, well is worth of read of Stanford HAI's publication.
International tensions and National Security
The heaven of AI is heaven of heaven, but its hell is of heaven. The good is that AI can be harnessed to enhance cybersecurity, better gather intel, and better defense apparatuses. The negative is that it creates new weaknesses and hazards. The power of AI-based cyber-attacks to topple governments and society is of great fear of apprehension. The second is that of robot wars that raise issues of decision-making on battlefields where lives are offered on altars of ambition. The greater global competition of AI domination by America vs. China only raises tensions and geopolitical issues. The Brennan Center report is a good insight into AI use by governments on issues of national security and transparency.
AI and Online Security: A Growing Menace
AI is a dual player on the global stage of online security is also the guardian of online life and an aggressor. As AI protects fraud and encryption, AI also makes newer cybercrimes possible. Deepfake technology, for example, has developed identity theft by making AI alter one’s private information to make effective false plans. Phishing itself is also much more dangerous through AI's power of making emails and voices much better to simulate real conversations. Finally, AI's power of spreading misinformation and propaganda confuses the fight of internet scams. Utilizing AI power of cyber scams' spreading is abused by cyber fraudsters utilizing AI power of cyber scams' spreading, abused by how advanced AI power is on internet safety.
Conclusion: AI Double-Edged Sword
One can observe that AI is neither good nor bad—something that is defined by what its developers have set out to accomplish using it. Though AI is useful, its possible negatives on people's privacy, safety, and values can't be ignored. The world is challenged to come up with means of overcoming challenges like that and have laws that will make AI develop responsibly, considering people's welfare. The documentary challenges its viewers to ask how society will evolve around AI and how we can make this emerging technology manageable so that it will better humankind overall.
