Hello, today our topic is artificial intelligence learning our emotions and the positive and negative sides of this. First of all, to briefly summarize what artificial intelligence is, we can say that it is a technology that enables computer systems to perform tasks such as learning, understanding, problem solving and decision making by exhibiting human-like intelligence. Now let’s have a long discussion about our main topic.
As I mentioned before, artificial intelligence is a practical learning machine, and the current state of artificial intelligence is not advanced enough, it can even be considered primitive. I think the biggest feature that separates AI from us humans is our experiences, our emotions. Artificial intelligence cannot give us good enough ideas, it cannot communicate with us as effectively as it should because it cannot understand our emotions. In my opinion, the most positive aspect of AI learning to read our emotions is that it eliminates exactly this gap. AI that starts to understand our emotions will be able to communicate with us better and understand us better. AI, which even now can often give spot-on answers and advice, will be number one in solving our problems. However, this innovation will naturally bring negativity with it. The energy problem, already one of the world’s biggest problems, will increase. Turkish businessperson and artificial intelligence expert Ayşegül İldeniz
“If we can’t solve our energy problem with fusion, artificial intelligence will remain a dream,” she explains. Even if this problem is not very relevant, I can easily say that I think he is right. Artificial intelligence that can read emotions can also bring ethical problems. The risk of manipulating people’s emotional states is an important issue to be aware of. An AI that can understand people’s emotions and recognize emotional vulnerabilities could spell the end of humanity. Artificial intelligence can learn to read our emotions as easily as it can learn to control them. It could create a killer out of us. When people realize that AI comforts them better as it begins to understand them, they may become dependent on its emotional support, and with this thought, they may go from psychologically good to bad. People will start to feel more and more dependent on AI, and this is not something to be taken lightly.
I am not comfortable with the fact that artificial intelligence, which I think will be the most important benefit of our lives in the future, involves so many risks. Yes, there may be positive aspects of artificial intelligence learning to read our emotions, but I think that the development should be stopped because I liken it to a gamble with a lot of negative aspects and a lot of risks, and I thank you for reading. Finally, I FEAR YOU, ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE!
