It's a given fact that times will change. For eons, observations made by man as well as life experiences can attest to that fact. It's no different then, that in today's day and age, humans have made great innovative strides in the areas of medicine, technology, communication, engineering and science.
Recently, I delved into the new frontier technology of AI. AI is the abbreviated form of the word artificial intelligence. In its broadest yet simplest sense, AI is intelligence that is exhibited by machines, particularly in the field of computer science. It enables computers to perform a variety of advanced functions, including the ability to see, understand and translate spoken and written language, analyze data, make recommendations and more.
Several applications are in the public arena that allow potential users to utilize this new technology in various areas of their lives. In my case, I took the risk in trying out a few of these apps with my recently published book, Poetic Verses. By taking each poem in the book and applying an AI-generated image which was in close alignment with its content, the book became a colorful work of art.
I am in the process of making plans to implement and utilize AI technology and design in future penned material. The possibility of translating 'Text-to- Voice' productions is also up for consideration.
AI has the potential to create and generate a positive influence in life; however, like any other available tool in the world, it can also be harmful if used in a negative way, or if mishandled in the wrong hands.
I can't wait to see where this new field of science and technology will take us. How about you?
I agree. It was like when the internet came out. It can be used used for either good or evil.
Every new technology has affected the world and us as individuals in both good and bad ways. Think cell phones, computers, and even automobiles. It all depends on how people use them. I think that the same is going to be true of AI
