The Benefits And Risks Of Artificial Intelligence In Society

There are benefits and risks that AI offers to society. Artificial intelligence aims to create machines that can think rationally for themselves. It will learn how to act like human beings and interact with others in the real world. Researchers are normally entitled to teach AI machines on becoming self-sufficient in getting a job done. As AI systems are continuously updated, they develop great potential in dealing with problems and making a good decision by considering all the alternatives. In today’s society, artificial intelligence is used to assist humans in many activities on a daily basis. Their excellent performance are proven to be useful because it improves the lives of people. AI is programmed to fulfill their duties and produce acceptable

Currently, there are AI industries developing machines that would have a positive impact on people’s jobs and lives. Studies have shown that artificial intelligence has changed the way we live and work because it motivates people to work productively in every organization. They are valuable tools that changes society for the better. According to How Robots & Algorithms Are Taking Over (2015), “While these machines cannot think, per se, they can process phenomenal amounts of data with ever-increasing speed and use… among many others” (Halpern, pg.1). Once artificial intelligence was created, they strive to imitate human behavior by thinking and acting like them to perform repetitive tasks. While teaching and training a person how to do specific tasks takes a long time, an AI machine can learn very quickly. This saves a lot of time for the organization. In addition, artificial intelligence is a social good that benefits from decision-making processes. While humans mostly makes decisions based on emotion, machines focuses on reasoning because it does what is best for the

Even though androids are simply machines, it is important to have human rights that will keep them safe. According to Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (1968), “He saw the laser tube in her dimly outlined hand; Roy Baty had slipped it to her… Roy Baty, in the other room, let out a cry of anguish” (Dick, pg.89). In this book, people are taught that they should never express empathy towards androids because they are not human at all. When Rick Deckard was ordered by Phil Resch to hunt and kill all androids because they are dangerous, he realizes that is not his true intentions. While Rick Deckard is doing this for financial gain, Phil Resch enjoys the sight of ending the lives of androids. In this particular scene, Rick Deckard successfully tracked down the missing androids and killed Mrs. Baty effortlessly. Her sudden death made Roy Baty extremely depressed because she was the love of his life. The word ‘anguish’ evidently shows that androids have feelings for the ones dearest to them. Due to the fact that humans do not see androids as an equal, they are being mistreated unreasonably. This law should be enforced because it protects all androids from harm. A lack of human rights for artificial intelligence gives people the opportunity to abuse machines to their heart’s content. Pain would be inflicted on the androids and nothing would be there to stop this from
