[Netease Smart News, August 8th] Artificial intelligence is changing the world around us. According to experts’ predictions, human society will undergo tremendous changes in the next 30 years.
In this regard, artificial intelligence expert Toby Walsh (Professor Toby Walsh) believes that in 2050 our lives will largely change due to machine learning.
In the terrible scene in the TV series “Black Mirrorâ€, people will realize eternal life in the form of chat robots after death. This may happen in the future. At the same time, the temptation of virtual reality and the fear of reality will make people fall into the deepest and darkest illusions.
Dr. Walsh outlined his vision of the machine world in a new book entitled "It's Alive: Artificial Intelligence from Logical Piano to Killing Robot." In this book, he portrays a nightmarish future: Machines control all aspects of our lives, from transportation, health, employment to entertainment.
Professor of Artificial Intelligence at the University of New South Wales also stated that the present era of 2050 is just as obsolete as the era of the carriage in 1950. "We must learn to control the development trend of computers and technology, and to curb the development of artificial intelligence in a timely manner."
The rise of robotics
Dr. Walsh envisages that machines with ultra-high IQs will replace human jobs and even become human bosses. He believes that all aspects of the future society will realize large-scale automated production. Many experts have predicted that a large number of white-collar jobs will be replaced by machines. Most of these jobs are repetitive tasks such as blue-collar work.
A report in March this year showed that by 2030, 38% of jobs in the United States will be replaced by robotics and artificial intelligence. Another survey said that in the next 15 years, Britain will have more than 10 million workers replaced by robots.
Dr. Walsh predicts that future news will be written and edited by artificial intelligence robots, and even your doctor will be a machine. Fitness equipment will be built on today's wearable devices, and artificial intelligence can monitor all aspects of our health by measuring our pulse and sleep patterns.
Smart home life is everywhere
The bathroom can automatically extract urine and fecal samples, while your smartphone's camera can be used to identify skin melanoma and check your eyes. Self-driving cars will mean people will be banned from driving to improve road safety.
Disappearance of social patterns
In response to these external pressures, experts predict that humans will gradually withdraw from society and spend more time in the online world. By then, the boundaries between movies, computer games, and virtual reality will become blurred, and people will be able to create and explore their own illusions.
Movie stars like Marilyn Monroe can be revived with ultra realistic holograms and CGI incarnations. People can also perform role-playing in their own movies.
Unreal world shows dark desire
Professor Walsh also conceives that people can become any avatars and deduce their darkest desires in virtual fantasy. He also said that this issue may cause great trouble for our society. Some people will call for illegal acts in the real world that should also be illegal or impossible in the virtual world.
Escape death: Awareness upload
He believes that in addition to turning reality into cyberspace, future wars will also start on the Internet. It can provide the ultimate opportunity to escape death. After we die, consciousness will be uploaded to the Internet. (Selected from: DailyMail Author: Tim hot ollins compilation: NEW YORK see foreign intelligence platform compiler revision: Kao Ming-Mei)
