Did you know that the future of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies could invisibly entwine human and machine intelligence? Well, the latest report on AI evolution suggests the possibility that the line separating physical and digital realities might dissolve soon.
Due to the depiction of artificial intelligence in science fiction films and novels, humans have the tendency to see AI where it does not exist, The Guardian notes. But media discovery startup Random cofounder Jarno M. Koponen believes AI is beginning to turn invisible from the outside in and vice versa.
What Does The Burgeoning Impact Of Artificial Intelligence Mean For Humans?
Today, the evolution of artificial intelligence is deemed unstoppable. But with the increasing impact of AI technologies, Koponen explains in his Tech Crunch article that human's ability to understand AI and its effects gradually becomes more limited.
Koponen also adds artificial intelligence technologies could also evolve into an infrastructure comparable to the internet. This said platform will allow users to decide the way they utilize AI or contribute to its design and development.
Human Intelligence VS. Artificial Intelligence
Human intelligence plays an important role in shaping intelligence and AI is also beginning to influence human intelligence. In order to fully comprehend the complexities of AI workings and effects, Koponen suggests the need to expand human intelligence to allow people to interact with AI-driven specimens in sustainable terms.
The relationship between humans and intelligent systems, however, is becoming more impeccably combined where the thin line that separates human intelligence and artificial intelligence might start to dissolve, Koponen says. Hence, the concept of artificial intelligence becomes irrelevant and obsolete.
Artificial Intelligence Evolution
As artificial intelligence becomes outdated, Koponen said AI might evolve into three intelligent systems in the future. These are Escaping Intelligence, Incomprehensible Intelligence and Intertwined Intelligence.
Artificial Intelligence As Escaping Intelligence
In escaping intelligence, AI becomes intangible and indistinguishable for humans, where artificial intelligence will manifest in various mediators like graphical user interface or a voice interface. AI also becomes invisible by passing the Turing Test or other relevant variants, stimulating human-level communication and cognition that becomes imperceptible to human.
Lastly, AI becomes escaping intelligence when humans no longer comprehend the technological dynamics of intelligent systems even though users are aware of their existence and effects.
Artificial Intelligence As Incomprehensible Intelligence
In incomprehensible intelligence, on the other hand, AI itself becomes indecipherable to human senses. But it comes in two distinct development traits: One, most algorithms become black boxes, which means they are inaccessible, unfathomable and uncontrollable to most people.
Second, artificial intelligence technologies become more complex and with the current and sophisticated pace of AI development, even experts can't keep up with it. With that said, AI systems will be leading experts on their own behavior, predicting their own future.
Artificial Intelligence As Intertwined Intelligence
Once a product of obscure curiosity, artificial intelligence has evolved to a powerful utility. In fact, AI is turning into an unprecedented cultural and technological phenomenon, affecting the way humans perceive "intelligence."
Since human intelligence and artificial intelligence are crucial to each other's development, the future of AI technologies might merge the physical and digital realms into one.
Meanwhile, the potential uses for artificial intelligence affect several industries. According to FT.com, major technological shifts cam bring greater hopes as well as more chances of disappointment.
