Civilization

Impact

when

As artificial intelligence and its use cases expand and alter the way we live our daily lives, experts are questioning the broader changes that we might see in our civilization and the way we evolve with AI in the coming years. With many betting on AI’s catastrophic nature to end humanity, or some glorifying it to the extent of a work-free world with universal income for all in a perfect Marxist scenario, there are experts who are raising rational questions that need serious attention. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="ai-s-will-touch-every-aspect-of-human-life">AI’s will touch every aspect of human life</h2> 
Eli Amdur, a professor, journalist, and keynote speaker, has questioned the absolute civilizational changes that AI might bring on a positive note.&nbsp; 
Amdur says that everything we do will be changed by AI. According to him, nothing will be left untouched by AI, from the very reasons that make life possible on Earth to the very minor and finer details about how these things exist. Ai’s influence will be far-reaching, touching all aspects of human life and society. 
He realized the profound impact that AI would bring about the most significant transformation humanity has ever experienced long ago, but when he first started talking about it some nine years ago, many had some skepticism or disbelief, which we can call innocent ignorance, but he saw how the reaction has changed over time.

Back in the day, very few people knew about AI, and that to a very limited extent, not having much knowledge, even the widespread usage of models like ChatGPT had not impacted public understanding of AI. 
The change started slowly as innovators started to explore the possibilities, but there were not many. Despite the knowledge now spreading and AI getting more appreciation, the deeper understanding was limited, as people mostly had just a broad awareness of the subject. There were folks who were pumped about the idea that AI is an interesting tool to write their assignments, and then there were the ones who were freaking over the idea that AI will mess up their jobs, they thought robots would replace them. But they don’t feel completely wrong now if they don’t upskill themselves. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="ai-s-impact-on-civilization">AI’s impact on civilization</h2> 
Then came the phase when its adoption began, with early adopters taking an interest in the tech and starting to realize that the AI thing is much larger than what they assumed it was. 
According to Amdur, we are still in that very same phase of early adopters, but we are rushing through it at full throttle, maybe faster than light. So more people are now learning and improving their understanding beyond the surface-level familiarity of AI.&nbsp;

This scenario, according to Amdur, brings us back to our early forecast about AI. As he thought it would be the most significant thing that ever happened to humankind, whether created by humans or intended for humans. As of now, we are ready for the greater impact of the tech. Here we come to a stage where we have to decide about some of the most important elements for our civilization, and if we fail to address them, then we will fail and lose our roles.&nbsp; 
We need a shift in our thinking, and we will have to engage in more meaningful discussions and come up with a set of ethics that is close to nature. and deriving from these ethics, we will have to put control over the advancement in genetic science, which is already evolving at lightning speed, so that we appreciate life rather than competing against it. 
Amdur also says that if we handover the<a href="https://www.cryptopolitan.com/creativity-and-critical-thinking-tech-world/" data-type="post" data-id="462851"> creativity and invention to AI</a>, as it seems to be the case at least for now, this will result in discouraging the natural drive of humans to reimagine their future. As creativity is considered an exercise unique to the human brain only, and finally, we need to answer if there will be any privacy for humans in the future.
