Will Computers and AI Take Over Society In The Future?
The advent of digital life has brought about a significant transformation in human activities, augmenting our abilities while also disrupting aeons-old traditional practices. With widespread access to code-driven systems that offer unmatched connectivity and access to information, new possibilities emerge for our society along with risks. As computers and AI continue to proliferate through emerging algorithm-driven technologies, it raises the question of whether they will soon take over our society in the future. There is no simple answer to this question, for one can never accurately forecast human development. For example, seventy years ago, more people imagined a future with flying cars, than with the expansion of “thinking” computer systems.…
