LETTER: Our Future : Artificial Intelligence

11

Dear Editor,

Please allow me some space in your widely read online newspapers to bring an awareness of most utter urgency to our nation character ai.

We go about our lives each day and may not give any thought of just how much our world has changed within the last 2 years.

Yes, we all got over religious and more self righteous when covid-19 struck. Then what: covid subsided and it has been back to the same normal routine of life. Be aware though…that even the WHO is warning on the next pandemic and it will be more dangerous.

We just do not learn. To everything there is a purpose….a reason. A season for every thing under the sun. Covid-19 should have been a wakeup call. An opportunity to reflect, ponder and evaluate our life styles. 

 The world has changed and is changing rapidly before our eyes. It was only 6 months ago that we saw the advent of ChatGPT. 

The Artificial Intelligence technology has unleashed a new game changer on all the world. Not since the advent of the Internet have we been faced with such a game changing technology that will drastically alter life on earth as we have known it. 

For those of you who are not aware of what GPT is:  Generative Pre-trained Transformer.  It is an artificial intelligence language model that was invented by the company OpenAI. Released onto the world and has made DANGEROUSLY advances in just 6 short months. 

The technology is moving so rapidly that even the USA congress ( 2 weeks ago) had to summon senior representatives from tech giants such as Google, IBM, etc; to discuss the matter and determine if there is an urgent need to regulate the AI technology. 

However, the horse has already been bolted. We cannot put the genie back into the bottle.

Too late is the cry.  

AI is seen in almost every type of technology used today. Our smart phones, for example, use AI in many of its features.

Universities and other educational institutions are now putting up red flags because AI ChatGPT have the ability to create research papers and theses that can bypass plagiarism checkers.

The job that is currently being done by 100 people can now be done by just ONE AI machine. The experts say that AI will in the next 2 years replace over 75 000 jobs in the USA alone. Though they are quick to mention that it will also create many jobs.

In summary: we are at the brink of time where even the inventors of ChatGPT are concerned that AI is being pertained to be smarter than human beings.  Do a search for “Ameca Robot interview” on YouTube and you can learn more of just how dangerously deep the AI technology is.

We need to start preparing the people for what is about to strike this world. 

Knowledge will increase, said the Bible. Indeed, it has increased and the way it is being used will scare the living daylight out of us.

Be prepared for the future with AI.

  1. I tend to agree with most that’s written here.
    How do you suggest Antigua and Barbuda prepare?
    The lead researcher and face of ChatGBT has been coding since he was 8 years old.
    Most Antiguans leave school without algebra. The Caribbean education system is rote learning, not one that produces analytical skills, critical thinking and data literacy.
    The Ivy League schools are embracing AI as well as putting in place protective measures.
    An attorney in NY will know in a few days what is the penalty and his future as an attorney for using ChatGBT which sited cases that did not exist.
    Antigua is far from ready, but there may be opportunities for those who can help them, and avoid the failures of the ECCB in their failed attempts to roll out digital a currency.

    • @Winston Southwell…#Warri is coding. It’s not just a game. It MUST be incorporated, into early childhood development(toddlers to GRAND MASTERS.
      As, the chameleon’s #who’re so called ‘policy writers’ have now realized, the Afrocentric Education Curriculum is a MUST in our schools, again, preschool to PhD, and beyond. Warri as a part, of our Afrocentric Culture is a natural part of this.

  2. As an IT professional, the author speaketh with the jawbone of an ass.

    You have no idea.

  3. You need check facebook and other social media platform to have an idea how this tech is creating havoc to our society. It is radicalising the young in a negative way.

  4. During the industrial revolution, the advancement of computer technology, and even the emergence of social media, similar stances and sentiments were held, yet, here we are. Humans have this amazing, almost cockroach like ability to adapt and survive. We’ll be fine

    • @Ras Smood the Impersonator…why the fuck is sucking my dick, and eating my shit💩💩💩so important? Are my stem cells that important to you, to clone me?
      Bitch grow your own balls and dick to have wanted sperm(stem cells).

  5. your grammar is bad you should’ve ran this article through Chatgpt before posting it on Antigua News Room. it’ll likely replaces your job as well.

    Dear Reader,

    As we stand on the precipice of a world that seems to be changing at an unprecedented speed, it is essential to take a moment and reflect on the progress we have made – and more importantly, the challenges that lie ahead. The last two years have been a period of transformation, where we have witnessed the emergence of significant technological advancements, with artificial intelligence (AI) leading the charge. It’s an understatement to say that AI, particularly the Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) developed by OpenAI, known as ChatGPT, has begun to redefine our understanding of what is possible.

    The COVID-19 pandemic served as a stark reminder of our vulnerability, but also as a clarion call for change. Indeed, life as we knew it was thrown into disarray, and we were forced to adapt and innovate. Now, with the pandemic easing, we must not fall back into complacency. Just as we weathered the storm of COVID-19, so too must we prepare for the next wave of change – the rise of AI.

    ChatGPT is a prime example of this rapid technological advancement. It represents a leap in AI capability that is transforming our interaction with technology. This language model, in just six short months, has advanced at a pace that has rightfully caught the attention of global leaders and sparked conversations around regulation and ethical usage.

    However, it’s important to remember that with every game-changing invention comes a measure of caution. The advent of the Internet, for instance, brought about connectivity and access to information on a scale never before seen, but it also introduced new challenges around privacy, security, and the spread of misinformation. Similarly, while ChatGPT offers immense potential, there are concerns that need addressing.

    One such concern revolves around the possible job displacement caused by AI technologies. While it’s true that automation may streamline processes to the point where a job done by many could be done by one machine, it’s also worth noting that this same technology will create a plethora of new opportunities. Like every technological revolution, from the Industrial Revolution to the Information Age, some jobs will disappear, but many more will emerge.

    Moreover, AI advancements like ChatGPT have sparked debates in the academic world. The potential for AI to produce research papers that could bypass plagiarism checkers has raised red flags. It’s a sobering reminder of the ethical implications we must grapple with as these technologies become more sophisticated.

    Undoubtedly, the pace of AI advancement can seem daunting, even alarming. But rather than fearing this progress, we must understand it, guide it, and harness it for the betterment of society. We must work towards a future where AI technology, like ChatGPT, is used responsibly and to the benefit of all.

    As we stand on the threshold of this new era, it’s clear that we need to prepare for the future that AI will bring. The potential for AI to revolutionize our world is immense, but so too is the responsibility that comes with it. As the Bible says, “Knowledge will increase.” Let us ensure that this increased knowledge leads to wisdom, understanding, and a better world for us all.

    In conclusion, the dawn of the AI age is upon us. It’s a time of great potential and great challenge. But, if history has taught us anything, it’s that we have the ability to rise to these challenges, adapt, and thrive. The AI future is coming – let us greet it with open minds, preparedness, and a steadfast commitment to harnessing its potential for the good of all.
