What’s The Future Impact Of Artificial Intelligence?

The future of mankind as we know it is beginning to look less and less human. With technology on the rise it seems something new and improved is released daily, and at times, we cannot even keep up. Not only are things like smartphones and e-commerce changing our lives as we know them, but robots are now commonplace. For instance, did you know that over 20% of millennials say they wouldn’t mind a relationship with a robot over another human? Houston, we have a big problem. Technology, namely in the medical field, as created breakthroughs that save lives and improve quality of life. That is an incredible use of technology, and one that benefits the greater good of mankind. But, with robots and artificial intelligence stepping into the limelight, what does that mean for human beings?

From Sophia the robot, who was the first robot to gain citizenship where she resides in Saudi Arabia, to sex robots that you can create from a-z. Yes, sex robots. You can customize how they speak, what they say and as one could imagine, what they do. Perhaps a sex robot is all fun and games, but what happens when and if robots begin to add to the already staggering population in the world? Is there room for another being on our planet? The future of technology, though it’s bright in some areas, is also rather bleak and terrifying in others. Will you choose to continue to coexist with other humans, or will you decide to purchase a robot as your friend? The choice, soon enough, will be yours.
