The Overwhelming Short-Term Impact of AI

#artificialintelligence

Without noticing it, artificial intelligence (AI) already fits in many forms into our daily lives and supports our decision-making. At times, it's discussed a bit like blockchain, which we're being promised will solve things like world hunger and human trafficking. However, artificial intelligence is already prevalent practically everywhere in technology, from cars to Google searches and as this technology is specifically designed for singular tasks, we humans cannot compete with that level of insistent focus. This relates specifically to what is called Artificial Narrow Intelligence or ANI designed to perform one sole task meticulously. The two next levels of AI development, specifically Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and Artificial Super Intelligence (ASI) are still out of our reach, for now.
