 In the Age of AI

    It is crazy to think that companies do not need as many people to work because they have these robots that will do it for them. It is causing fewer people to be employed. Artificial Intelligence is a driving force for inequality because there are two sides, Capital and labor and AI has its finger more on the Capital side. How they react too will impact our society for the future years. 

Computers are trying to adapt the world to you. They collect data on everything that you do and personalize things. So everywhere you go and everything you do online is creating a cloud of data about you. That will actually outlive you. People have no idea that we aren't using social media it is using us and were not searching Google it is actually searching us. I think that is very important to know and be aware of because it can change your perspective and your future actions with anything online. 

National Security is very serious and we could potentially be in a completely different world. The national security topic is very important but I think they know a lot more than we think. Seeing the videos in China where they just know each and every person and the data shows up on the screen, is just crazy to me. 

Online security is another serious topic. They know a lot about you and are continuously collecting data about you. That makes me feel unsecured because they know so much just by having all that access and you aren't even aware of it. And security is very poor because there hasn't just been identity theft but discrimination, and bias. Identity theft is more common now with all of this data on the internet and it is also easier to do. Most jobs will be threatened by AI in the future years and that is very concerning to hear at my age. It was also very interesting and informative.
