What Are The Negative Impacts Of Artificial Intelligence (AI)?

We look at the negative impacts of AI - including job automation, biased decision-making, autonomous weapons, and many others.

For repetitive commands such as admin data input or basic mechanisms then sure AI is amazing, but we are humans and we have intuition and emotions, which a machine will never have to our innate level. I think it should be about balance and having both options readily available for e.g. Both humans and fast checkouts in supermarkets. This is a good policy against discrimination. A machine will not be able to tailor unique human responses and this can be detrimental to business growth and customer UI satisfaction based on the algorithmic instructions and limitations. Nothing like the human touch.

For sure in the Sales domain, AI will automate most mundane tasks and make sales reps more effective, not necessarily replacing them or the necessary human touch.

If AI brings advantages in smart power grids and health care industry in reducing energy consumption and treatment costs, it should be welcome. However, the flip side of using AI carries so much bad impact, I'm afraid that the overall effect will be bad. As humans have already started to act like machines, there are way more chances people will suffer from poor memtal health. Problems like depression, anxiety are already making huge inroads to the society. With the advent of AI, as we are dependent more on machineries, this is bound to rise. Another point: it is going to transform jobs which are helpful for industries for mass scale production and profits but individual human lives will suffer in adapting to this change. Eventually most people will be either physically sick due to the material comfort or mental sick due to lack of adaptability with this new industrial revolution. Consequently, health care industry will require more people to work for them and eventually a sick doctor will treat sick patients

Don't forget that algorithm improvements could occur. Kinda like on the ai462 blog thing.

AI’s got a lot of negative impacts for sure - but if the positive impacts outweigh the negative ones, then who’s to say that AI’s a bad thing, right? I love how you included AI’s positive attributes to every negative one, it shows balance. Especially concerning the first one since a lot of people are afraid that they might lose their jobs to AI - but in fact, they’ll also be creating other novel jobs in place of the jobs AI will be taking over!

Black rights activists have already complained that AI is racist...also, people will complain when AI is allowed to make it's own logical conclusions and then act on those conclusions. What I mean is, AI may see how men are physically stronger and better suited to some types of work. This will actually reinforce stereotypes.

I love all your videos but not this one, the A.I. will be intelligent enough to overcome what you mentioned, the AI can monitoring human behaviour and learning from history to improve it self. Yes, I believe that AI touch will be much better than human touch in future.

This is why (true) AI should be banned. It's too dangerous and could end humanity. :(

AI will fail desperately in 1-2 years from now ...take my words ....we will meet again after 1-2 years
