The event drew some of the best-known figures in the field of artificial intelligence from the IEEE, OECD, UN and AAAI representatives from IBM Watson, Microsoft, Facebook, OpenAI, Nest, Drive.ai and Amazon AI executives from Italy, France, Estonia, Canada, Russia, Singapore, Australia and the United Arab Emirates. The list continues.
Foreign media Futurism received exclusive access to a 'closed-door roundtable' organized by the Future Institute of Artificial Intelligence Initiative at the Kennedy School of Government in Harvard and Omar bin Sultan Al Olama, UAE's Minister of State for Artificial Intelligence, 'Developing a perceived AI' to how the algorithm violates our privacy. "One of the most attractive aspects of the roundtable was that participants discussed the most direct ways to use AI for the benefit of humans.
The answer is: Augmenting humans
It may sound like a bold statement from the beginning, however, we've been using artificial intelligence for a long time to enhance our activity and ability to work. Do not believe it? Take out your mobile. Go to Facebook or other social media platforms. There, you'll see AI's hard work categorizing pictures, news, and ads and bringing you the information you want to see. When you type in search engines, it works in much the same way - - AI brings you the search results you want based on your search terms.
Of course, artificial intelligence extends far beyond the digital world, using LawGeex, a legal technology company, that uses artificial intelligence algorithms to automatically review contracts Automated paper-pushing undoubtedly saves customers money but The real benefit for many attorneys is saving time, and in fact, as one participant points out, 'nobody went to law school to cut and paste parts of regulatory documents.'
Similarly, artificial intelligence is quickly becoming a valuable resource in the medical arena, whether it is helping manage tasks, managing paperwork, assisting with therapies or even surgery, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently approved A predictable death algorithm.
These are examples of how AI can be used to enhance our ability to accumulate and find knowledge and to learn the answer - how AI can change the way we work and live.
When we think of AI augmenting humans, we often think of big things, our brain going directly to those classic science fiction scenes, and we think of the way we bring humans to the next evolutionary stage Brain implants, or wearable headsets that can translate in real time, but often we do not stop to think about the excitement and desire to explore the potential of new technologies, and this tortuous path will eventually put us Even though we have embarked on this path.While it is entertaining to consider novelties based on advanced artificial intelligence systems, we can not ignore the real value of what today looks like a mundane system that, if fully implemented , Which frees us from a few hours of hard work, let's really spend our time on what we think is worth the task.
Imagine having DMVs wait without queuing up and imagine filing tax returns in seconds, a vision that is likely to happen and that in the coming months and even years, world leaders are planning to get us moving faster along this line On the road to Dubai, participants discussed the next steps the government needs to take to accelerate our progress on this path.
The group pointed out that before the government begins to raise the standard of living of human beings - whether using smart contact lenses to monitor blood glucose levels or replacing artificial intelligence with government receptionists - world leaders need to understand the current state of their country. What is done is knowing where they are on this journey, "a panel member said.
In the weeks and months to come, countries around the world may be urged to do so. Once countries understand their direction, ideally they will share their discoveries to help latecomers and learn from those who are forward. With a better road map, all countries will be ready to step on the accelerator.
