1. Do you think artificial intelligence will be a significant problem in the future?
Artificial intelligence could potentially be a problem in the future because the less machines need humans, the less humans have to do. If machines could operate on their own, a lot of people would lose their jobs. People who work in factories or with any type of machinery will be out of work. With so many people out of work, the economy will suffer because consumers would no longer be able to afford goods. Corporations and factories will not have to pay workers but overall they will lose business. Artificial intelligence is a huge step forward in technology but it will not benefit workers or businesses in the long term.
2. How has technology impacted your life?
Technology has impacted my life significantly. I always feel the need to have my cell phone with me at all times. When I go to anywhere significant, such as a concert, I am constantly taking pictures or recording so that I can remember those moments rather than just enjoying them while they are happening. When I am spending time with my nephew I am always taking pictures of him and trying to capture him learning anything and everything new. When I am bored at home I tend to go on my phone and spend time on social media. I go to technology for any question I have about anything from a food recipe to directions to a new destination. When I am lost somewhere I depend on google maps on my phone to get me home. It is quite sad how much society today relies on technology but technology is very convenient and helpful.
