Artificial Intelligence: Rise Of The Machines 2
<p>I won’t even lie, Artificial intelligence stands as one of humanity's most groundbreaking innovations, revolutionizing numerous aspects of our lives.&nbsp;<br></p><p>For writers, AI is an invaluable tool that helps us generate ideas and refine our work by enhancing accuracy and minimizing errors, thereby elevating the overall quality of our writing.</p><p>But guess what?</p><p>AI scares me shitless and I have Hollywood to blame for it!</p><p>We’ve all seen movies like “Terminator,” “The Matrix” and “IRobot”. And <em>Iamscared</em> that one day, a real life “rise of the machines” will take place, and we’ll all be forced to swear allegiance or be <em>unalived</em> at the hands of modern day Terminators. <em>I’m a filmmaker, my overactive imagination is both a gift and a curse. Hehe.</em></p><p>The first people to go will probably be the Chinese/Japanese. <em>Pls don’t come for me if you’re from any of these places</em>. &nbsp;Or any of the Asian countries obsessed with pet robots, as well as those their restaurant waiter robots that serve you food.&nbsp;</p><p>And let’s not forget, AI is taking over human jobs. Customer-care chat bots increasingly assume roles traditionally held by humans, diminishing the need for personal interaction in many companies. Although employing AI usually means faster communication, and I won’t deny it’s opened new avenues for employment <em>sha</em>. But that you can literally interact with Meta AI on WhatsApp or ChatGPT and instantaneously get answers to the questions you need, freaks me out.&nbsp;</p><p><em>Call me bush, call me cave woman, it is what it is.&nbsp;</em></p><p><em>And e be like witchcraft sometimes.&nbsp;</em></p><p>The way technology seamlessly mimics human conversation. It’s useful. It’s good technological advancement.&nbsp;</p><p><em>But it’s also creepy, biko. *inserts cold, crying emojis*&nbsp;</em></p><p>And I sincerely hope the recurring vision I have thanks to movies; of our computers melting into one or shape-shifting like in “Transformers” then proceeding to take over our homes, work-places and the entire world will never come to pass. Maybe I should start apologizing to my laptop in the meantime for the way I misuse it.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><em>Shivers</em></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
