In class today we watched the PBS produced show Frontline's documentary on the Age of A.I ( Artificial Intelligence). The documentary was very eyeopening and viewers learned all about the scary reality that is coming due to the fact AI is taking over the world.
One of the biggest reasons for Job loss here in the United States is due to AI especially in the automobile industry. Even now AI is taking over the acting industry. A relevant topic with this is WGA strike. Many writers are going on strike as they are not being paid enough but also AI is writing scripts and information for the writers instead which is very sad. A.I is also taking jobs in the hospitality industry. Panera Bread, McDonalds, and many more fast food restaurants are turning to self serve order systems which is taking away many jobs for people. While it may be faster for customers to order at a tablet it is very unfortunate jobs are being taken away and many do not know where to turn next.
It is also scary how much all these online websites and google, facebook, and other social media sites know about us. These sites want to know so much about us. Google looks at everything we browse and looks at traces of what we look up to know about us. In my opinion this is absolutely horrifying and makes us think how much do people know about us. Google and Facebook " cast a net for data".
Artificial Intelligence is taking over our world and it is a very scary reality.
