How artificial intelligence can make our world better

The rapid improvement of AI systems has sent a rush of panic through society for a variety of different reasons. Given all this bad PR, perhaps it’s time to instead look at the wonderful things this technology has to offer us.

Ask the internet about the evils and dangers of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and you’ll find no shortage of conspiracies coated with themes of impending doom and world-ending global catastrophe.

The primary worries range from the common idea that AI will replace all of our jobs to it eventually taking over the world. While fears of the unknown are valid, these fatalistic theories omit a key principle: human beings are the ones programming this novel tech.

Due to that fact, we have the power to ensure that AI doesn’t become an enemy of our own creation. Instead, programmers can arm AI with technical capabilities that humans suck at and are needed to make our world better.

Let’s look at some of the ways Artificial Intelligence can be integrated into our careers, social and health sectors, and even political parties.
