FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Here we hope you will find all of the answers to any questions you may have concerning D4TECH.

Q: How do you make AI and AI robots safe?

A: Isaac Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics were created to address the negative concerns. They are as follows:

  1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
  2. A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
  3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
Addressing both its positives and negatives, artificial intelligence is fascinating and complicated. Artificial intelligence has the possibility of affecting countless lives.

Q: What are some benefits of AI?

Artificial intelligence (AI) can be used to learn individuals’ personalities and skill sets to best group them into teams suited perfectly for certain tasks. The best part, AI can do this in seconds. With help from AI, team leaders can be much more efficient in giving orders and making important decisions. Of course, learning individuals’ personalities and skill sets, will also result in AI being able to learn an individual’s habits and decided the most efficient way for them to get their requirements completed. All of these benefits are good for military applications. If Artificial intelligence knows how to best group people into groups, then that group would be best suited for their assignment. AI can learn to help individuals most efficiently accomplish their assignments, this better improves the efficiency of the group; when all members of a group quickly and accurately accomplish their individual goals it makes the stress of the entire group finishing their goals much easier.

Q: Can an AI robot be safe?

There are many aspects and considerations to make about what would make a system like this safe. In order to even begin to try to determine this we would first want to determine what is considered to be safe. There would be a factor of risk versus reward, being what are we going to risk in attempting to attain the benefits of a system like this. One of the first things to consider, would be safety of the weapon being wielded, would it be able to protect people in ways of self defense while keeping surrounding people safe. Also to be considered would be what kind of injuries it could cause, be it monetary, physical, or emotional. Also there could be the potential for something from the Sci-Fi realm of computers revolting, and coming against people. "It may sound like a myth but it is something that could possibly happen, Facebook abandoned an experiment after two artificially intelligent programs appeared to be chatting to each other in a strange language only they understood" (independent.co.uk). Overall the ultimate goal in all of this is the safety of the people that this technology is being used for, and these are some of the questions and concerns that need to be observed when considering the use of this degree of a system that is still in its early stages.

Q: What is the Technological Singularity?

A: The technological singularity is the hypothesis that the invention of artificial superintelligence will abruptly trigger runaway technological growth, resulting in unfathomable changes to human civilization.

Q: What are some personal uses of AI?

A: When self-driving cars become more common, grocery runs or picking up your kids will become a lot more simple. Additionally, personal assistants who are available through your phone, computer, or other devices, will be able to assist with daily planning and other necessities.

Q: How Could Artificial Intelligence be used in the World of Education

A: In this setting, AI could be used to teach a class, assist a teacher, or analyze the students to provide alternative teaching methods to the teacher. Additionally, in a world of rapid modernization, AI could provide cheap and affordable education to children and adults in third world countries.

Q: What would AI be used for in a Commercial application?

A: Commercial AI systems would serve as autopilots for many vehicles, improving the speed and efficiency of transportation. These systems will also be extremely useful in factory settings.

Q: How would this be helpful recreationally?

A: Recreation is not only limited by access, but our knowledge of what is actually available. AI’s that are integrated into our lives will understand how we function, as individuals, in groups, and families, and will be able to provide us with the best options based on our schedule, budget, and personal preferences.
