"Artificial Intelligence" The Present and Future of Development

The basic comparison that can be set between man and machine is the creative thinking that humans have, on the one hand, and emotional ability, on the other hand. We are different in the way we act and learn. However, machines are programmed and ready to obey specific instructions, for that, we can predict their steps and results. This difference between machines and men starts to disappear according to a new technical revolution called artificial intelligence.

Artificial intelligence is considered one of the most important sciences that resulted from the contemporary technological revolution. It was represented by knowledge, and how to use this knowledge effectively and logically in order to make the right decisions and find the best solutions. This science requires cooperation between many scientists and specialists in different fields such as computer, linguistics, logic, mathematics, and psychology.

We can say that most of the AI systems are based on two basic parts; the database and the machine. The process of providing the machine of the specific data requires finding a way to encode concepts and theories, performing many applied procedures, and the need to manipulating as fast as possible to get good and reliable results.

Artificial intelligence provides benefits to all fields

Many countries are devoting money and efforts to support research and development in the field of artificial intelligence, where getting a machine with cognitive ability is extremely complex, but it paves the way for a prosperous future.

In July, The Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) hosted the AI World Conference with the participation of researchers and experts. They provided the world's leading initiatives and trends and talked about the role of this technology is changing the operations of work in government and private sectors, strengthening the UAE's role as a center for experiencing the innovations of this technology, and supporting the effort to provide the best amenities around the world.

AI's contribution to help organizations

The main principle of artificial intelligence is to exceed the way humans interact with the world. This technology improves the performance and productivity of enterprises through data automation, which has required the contribution of human power in the past. Then, this science has become equipped with many forms of machine learning that recognize data patterns and provide a more comprehensive understanding, as well as relying on predictions to automate highly complex tasks.

Features of Artificial Intelligence

Devices and machines depended on AI can easily solve problems using logic, for AI is able to recognize sounds and move things.

AI is very important in the field of education, it helps students to know their level and get any programs they want without affecting the educational structure. It has also a great importance in homes through devices that we can use to control lighting, and closing doors and curtains remotely.

Indeed, it provides benefits in the field of recruitment, through revising and counting personal resumes using computers, in addition to its great role in customer service, where we can communicate with a large number of customers using a computer in a short time.

AI problems

This science represents a bright future despite the disadvantages of using it. It helps society through understanding the relationship between humans and machines, to get the required result.

The following points talk about some problems:

1. Absence of emotions: Artificial intelligence is not characterized by human relationships based on compassion and community spirit. Machines will perform the required tasks without any connection with humans.
2. Widespread of joblessness: Machines will do the tasks instead of workers in many scientific fields. Man cannot match the machine in terms of efficiency and the ability to work.
3. High cost: Operating in this field will cost a lot of money, whether in manufacturing, programming or repairing machines.
4. Data loss: Machines are not able to restore data in case of loss as humans do in general, so damage happening led to losing the data stored completely.
5. Inability to innovate: Machines do not have the ability to create new things as humans do. Their benefit is limited to scientific and technical fields.
6. Improper use: Misusing the artificial intelligence for non-scientific purposes poses a real threat to society.

The Future of Artificial Intelligence

Smart computing systems have developed all the areas in which they entered. Artificial intelligence helps to provide many innovations, such as self-driving cars, remote surgery through robots, weather forecasts and others.

It is predictable that computer systems will be superior to human intelligence in 2090, as many fear of the future of this intelligence and the development of machine learning algorithms; especially teaching computers themselves without relying on humans. DeepMind is a cutting-edge artificial intelligence company acquired by Google, has developed algorithms that trained themselves to play games like chess without pre-programming, led to competing the best players in many games.

Conclusion

Many believe that artificial intelligence may compete with human intelligence. Providing this development, the biggest challenge for computing systems is the inability to feel as humans do.

AI becomes now a critical part of our daily activities, and it helps to control things effectively. However, we should keep in mind that it cannot be equal to what humans are able to do, but a way to help them. It is worth mentioning that we must know it better and be aware of the risks that we might face during its existence.
