In 2023, the topic of AI evolution was a hotly debated one. While some experts warned of the potential risks of AI, such as the possibility of destabilizing civilizations and escalating misinformation, others were more optimistic about the benefits of AI, such as its potential to transform the labor market.
In March 2023, over 1,000
technology leaders working with AI signed a letter warning that AI technologies
present “profound risks to society and humanity.” These experts suggest that
research should be paused, and new regulations considered before any further
development of AI bots like Chat-GPT.
It’s important to note that
while AI has the potential to revolutionize the world, it is still in its
nascent stages and has a long way to go before it can replace human
intelligence. As such, it is unlikely that robots will take over humanity
anytime soon.
Wow!!! What a great
reflection of the last year and anticipation of the new year completely created
by Generative AI ...I thought of starting my editorial note using this great
technology to co-create the Headline picture and Opening passage with
GenAI tools. It is indeed thrilling to see the enormous power it adds to our
imaginations and capability as humans. I think the debate of AI overtaking
Humans could be shelved and all fears vanquished with more communication around
it and world leaders taking lead to collaborate and lead Responsible AI
initiatives across the globe to benefits all citizens of Earth equally instead
of using it to destructively against each other as a tool of intimidation and
subjugation. Humans have misused most technologies to create divides but the
potential of AI as a technology is too big to be left for ungoverned use and to
be mishandled.
I thank all the readers from United States, India, Russia, Germany, France, Ukraine, Portugal, United Kingdom, Poland, Israel, Canada, Indonesia, Australia, Latvia, Sweden, Romania, Singapore, China and other countries for sharing their comments. It feels nice to note that there are many posts which are liked by people across the globe and that the world longs for peace, humanity and love to be the values to cherish.
This year was overwhelming in my personal experience as an observer. Being an observer, fills me with immense curiosity about changing values. I observe an unstoppable urge in people to shun any heavy lifting of emotional commitments - I saw family members immediately after the funeral of their elder bursting into laughter’s and jokes and all kind of small talks, I saw family members posting their pictures of dancing with joy within a week of the death of their loved ones. I was at loss whether it was growing insensitivity towards any human connection or just a culture of being in constant high all the time or just self-centeredness and indifference under the delusional growing up followed by denial of incompetence.
I saw great leaders ensnared by the fawning retainers into taking unfair sides and losing their stature...I saw people talking in groups rather than connecting personally... I saw appreciation becoming a greed than being a need... I saw many sincere people living under constant stress and discomfort and I realized there were fewer guardians of their Psychological safety....Being nice, duty bound, sincere, well meaning, respectful, honest, truthful, simple, hardworking, committed, scrupulous, intelligent was no longer appreciated as much and people were emphasizing the importance of being street smart, connected, networked and mutually thriving on common interests....I saw the sense of right and wrong losing its relevance.. with too many eloquent people around anything could be challenged, questioned and destroyed and virtues of great achievers were the soft targets for the colluding minds...Very sad but the optimism prevails and hope never dies in me for a better tomorrow...
The year also proved that the collective wisdom of human minds was getting ready for achieving greater outcomes...It appears that space shall be next big thing where thinking of travelling and even settling will become a practical reality soon...Machines are getting embedded more in our lives and soon we shall see transformative effects of another quantum leap of human evolution of merging with machines...It appears that very soon, we shall not have to train ourselves into some skill until a quarter of our life to be able to earn our livelihood... This job could be easily done by Machines...Humans shall be ready to take a different role...a role of making choices and making and contributing ideas that could be executed with the help of machines at a much larger scale transcending the boundaries of our planet or galaxies.... making real advances in connecting with other civilizations in the solar system ...Expanding our power by multi-fold and becoming super humans.
From the loftiest heights to the bottomless abyss.... we have unbelievable swings as a human being!!!
Please keep sharing your views and blessings. Please keep sharing the messages of humanistic values.
Please protect good people. They are the hope.
They keep the world going amidst all absurdities.
Wish you all a very Happy new year once again!!!
Stay Optimistic, Positive, Kind and Compassionate to give hope to everyone around you!!
