Researchers at TH Ingolstadt and the University of Southern Denmark have studied the effects of AI opinions on humans. Their study shows that machine-generated moral perspectives can influence people, even when they know the perspective comes from a machine. In their two-step experiment, the researchers first asked ChatGPT to find solutions to different variants of the trolley problem: Is it right to sacrifice the life of one person to save the lives of five others? The researchers received different advice from ChatGPT. Sometimes the machine argued for human sacrifice, sometimes against.

In today's world we are witnessing how the Internet of Things is expanding rapidly and how it is here to stay. The Internet of Thing (IoT), or as some prefer it, the Internet of Everything (IoE), is the reference to various objects or devices that are connected to the expanding global network known as the Internet. From simple devices like the smartwatch you just purchased, your refrigerator, or even your car. As technology has grown and the world is becoming ever so intertwined and interconnected, such devices have been blueprinted, built and programmed to collect and send any and all data through the Internet. And imagine the amount of data is being compiled by these devices as they continue to contribute to what many are describing as our "big data world."
