Description

Our society is constantly evolving exponentially. This evolution has brought us to the birth of artificial intelligence. this development has brought many controversial opinions about its usage. Today we will be discussing its effects on society and its future.

Round 1

Pro

Artificial intelligence can predict future events like natural disasters, environmental issues/change, and precise numbers of birth rate and death rate.

Counterclaim (3): Artificial intelligence can lead to dangerous outcomes and results and mat start a revolutionary movement against humanity.

Sixty-seven targets (82%) within the Society group could potentially benefit from AI-based technologies

AI can enable smart and low-carbon cities encompassing a range of interconnected technologies such as electrical autonomous vehicles and smart appliances that can enable demand response in the electricity sector

Con

Lastly, artificial intelligence brings the concern for virtual privacy to the table. Malicious use of AI like “Deep Fakes” and browser trackers have emerged with a new development of AI. “Deep Fakes” which take a person’s face and plaster it on another have become an increasingly dangerous problem within the forums that spread them. People cannot tell what is real from what is not. Facebook’s AI uses information it did not even obtain from its own website. Which means wherever you go online, an AI is always there tracking you. With the development of AI people’s privacies have become increasingly fickle and undependable.

Pro

consumers are optimistic about AI development cause it could disrupt a lot of plagues in society.

around 60 percent of society believes that it could solve modern-day problems and approach them safely without the interference of humanity cause AI is programmed to give its 100% to fulfill its purpose.

id like to ask the audience, would you rather pay a monthly fee to a maid or driver or invest their time in buying a long-lasting technology?

about the idea of privacy around 2050 people are expecting voice ID or face scan ID or hand ID, and even developing AI glasses that swiftly know everyone's ID but it gonna be used mainly in the militia purposes

Predicting the future is still not 100% accurate, and these inaccuracies can cause deaths for people. The birth rate and death rate numbers of humans is already heavily recorded without the use of advanced AI. So any further developments would probably breach human privacy even more.

Reason:

Pro has: Prediction of disasters, autonomous vehicles (help environment), society believes it can resolve problems, face scan ID makes things quicker
Con has: intrusion of privacy, inaccurate predictions, further developments will make intrusion of privacy worse

It's very difficult to judge this as both sides have very little impact. With privacy up against environmental help, it's near impossible to tell which one is better. Thus efficiency with face scan ID allows pro to narrowly win out by a hair.
