Description: There are many concerns about the negative effects of technological progress, including: threat to privacy, electronic error or malfunction and automation leading to loss of humanity. Many researchers argue that electronic advances have a negative cost to human performance. Major advances in computing lead to reliance on technology to perform menial tasks. However, some arguments claim that humans are actually the ones who threaten all forms of progress, as they produce the majority of errors that risk lives and make mistakes. My argument is that even if the effects of human error are responsible for errors, computer automation will lead to lazy, sedentary lifestyles and a reliance on technology for very simple tasks such as complicated tasks. Artificial Intelligence: iRobot or humans, who is the most dangerous Many times we wonder what the real threat is from technological advancements, but we don't so often think about the risk we pose to the environment as beings humans (Dietrich, 2007). In a consumer society, we are taught that we must take more than we give. The risk associated with advances in artificial intelligence is that in implementing these new technological advances, we will lose sight of humanity and the benefits we bring to society. Artificial intelligence is a technological way to imitate human beings and opens a new avenue for technological advancement because human beings are imperfect (Shaw, 2008). When we use AI technology, we can account for human errors and correct inconsistencies. When we use any form of technology, it presents benefits that eliminate the risk that human beings pose to themselves and other living beings.
