Four AI myths debunked – experts reveal the truth about robots taking over

#artificialintelligence

There are many fears out there when it comes to artificial intelligence – some rational, some irrational. By now, most people have integrated some form of artificial intelligence (AI) into their daily lives. For example, if you use Alexa to check the weather or ask Siri to tell you jokes, that's AI. However, despite the widespread use of such technology around the world, people are still concerned about AI. While many fears are valid – such as AI taking over certain jobs, or making humans lazier – others are unfounded.


The Top 3 AI Myths in Cybersecurity

#artificialintelligence

Whether it's in novels, or the movies based on them, artificial intelligence has been a subject of fascination for decades. The synthetic humans envisioned by Philip K. Dick remain (fortunately) the stuff of science fiction, artificial intelligence is real and playing an increasingly large role in many aspects of our lives. While it's fun to root against (or maybe for) human-like robots with AI brains, a much more mundane, but equally powerful form of AI is starting to play a role in cybersecurity. The goal is for AI to be a force multiplier for hardworking security professionals. Security operations center (SOC) analysts, as we saw in the most recent Devo SOC Performance Report, are often overwhelmed by the never-ending number of alerts that hit their screens each day.


The Reality Behind Manufacturing's AI Myths

#artificialintelligence

As a former professor in artificial intelligence, one of my favorite – and surely one of the oldest – technological myths is found in the masterpiece, the Iliad. In Homer's poem narrating the Trojan War, the God of metalworking, Hephaestus, engineers one of the first robots known to history, a handmaiden designed to assist him in his forge. Not happy with limiting himself to manufacturing, Hephaestus steps it up by designing Talos, an automated bronze giant whose purpose was to protect ancient Crete from pirates and invaders. While thousands of years have passed since Hephaestus' mythical robots came to life, today's intelligent machines – strong with skillful AI – are making headway in our own workplaces. Take the factories and warehouses adversely affected by the pandemic as an example. With fewer and fewer workers willing and able to assist our manufacturers and fulfilment centers, many are embracing AI and machine learning to automate tasks such as quality control which are traditionally reliant on scores of human workers.


AI myths that techies should stop believing in 2022

#artificialintelligence

Artificial Intelligence has gained immense popularity in the past. People work relentlessly to innovate artificial intelligence applications and products that will automate complex tasks that humans are unable to do. Amongst the very few subjects in the tech industry that have gained immense popularity, Artificial Intelligence is the one subject that gained immense popularity in the past. Many people work relentlessly on this subject to innovate artificial intelligence applications and products that will automate complex tasks that humans are unable to do. Even after a plethora of advancements happening in this subject, here's a list of some myths about artificial intelligence that techies must stop believing in 2022: But, on the contrary, there would be no AI without humans.

This piece explores myths about Artificial Intelligence, such as "I need to go to a university and hire an AI PhD" and "I need to collect millions of images to even know if using AI is possible."

6 AI myths holding your business back

#artificialintelligence

Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques are reaching deeper into work environments, not only replacing and enhancing mundane jobs, but also augmenting or otherwise changing those that remain. They are permeating every aspect of business and are driving organizational strategies. In fact, Gartner predicts that by 2025, AI will be the top category driving enterprise infrastructure decisions. Yet even as interest in AI rises, several myths about this technology persist. CIOs must identify and debunk those myths, in order to devise sound strategies--or enhance existing ones--when driving implementation of AI projects.


Decoding the AI myths: How AI can generate jobs?

#artificialintelligence

The industrial revolution of the third quarter of the eighteenth century indeed led to a phase where a huge portion of the population was on the streets, battling the odds of hunger, poverty, and, most importantly, unemployment. Most of the modern-day online thinkers have aren't much aware of the fact that the same industrial revolution generated a lot of job opportunities for the ones who were skilled enough to operate the machinery. This apparently makes us looks into Darwin's theory of'Survival of the fittest where only the skilled and educated will play a dominant role in the job market and the society. Since the earth is revolving around the same sun, history will most likely repeat itself, and only the skilled and educated will flourish in the job market when AI takes over the industries. The piece intends to discuss some of the jobs that will be in superior demand when AI leads the way for businesses.

iManage – Unravelling the Labyrinth of AI Myths: AI does not learn by itself iManage

#artificialintelligence

Encouraged by media portrayals of AI, a widespread myth is that AI simply learns by itself. For example, a common misconception represents AI as a digital brain that can be plugged and played into a given scenario, learning to solve X, Y, Z challenges on its own. Such representations are based on fiction, not fact. While AI is a robotic brain that can learn, it learns in a different way than a human brain. AI uses mathematics and pre-classified data to learn. Crucially, AI needs a human brain to guide it through the learning process by pre-classifying data into categories that it can examine and categorize.
