Artificial Intelligence Vs Job displacements
Context :
- AI is the digital distillation of a technological revolution that is facilitating the long-overdue evolution of the human mind.
- AI can traditionally be divided into AGI and ANI.
AGI and ANI :
- AGI stands for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and Artificial Narrow Intelligence refers to ANI.
- AGI is designed to be capable of performing a wide variety of intellectual tasks.
- ANI is designed to perform a single or a narrow set of related tasks.
- AGI is designed to be flexible and adaptable, capable of handling new tasks and situations without human intervention.
- This is often referred to as ‘unsupervised learning’ which means that the AI system can learn from data without being explicitly programmed to do so.
- The difference between AGI and ANI lies in their scope of intelligence and their ability to generalise knowledge across different contexts.
- AGI is primarily driven by a variety of technical aspects that bear deeper discussion.
- One such aspect is the sophistication of AGI’s cognitive architecture the development of a system that includes perception, attention, memory, language, and reasoning.
- AGI is envisioned as having the ability to perform any intellectual task that a human can do, and to apply knowledge learned in one context to new, unfamiliar situations.
- ANI, by contrast, is designed to perform a specific task and is not capable of generalising knowledge or skills to new situations outside of its programmed domain.
- While, AGI is still largely in the realm of theoretical research and development, ANI is already in widespread use in a variety of industries and applications.
