If you ask what fuel will fuel the revolutions of the 21st century, the answer will be artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence will create such powerful movements in our society in the near future. Its impact will be far greater than we can imagine today, in all areas be it health care, education, retail, banking.Artificial intelligence has already started to be used in many fields including these. It is estimated that the market value of artificial intelligence, which is growing at a rate of 36 percent in the global market, will reach three trillion dollars in 2025. It should also be considered here that in 2015 it was only 126 lakh crores.What problems will artificial general intelligence create that can perform all the intelligent tasks that humans do? This was a major issue in the debate between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg. Bill Gates also expressed his views on the same.Facebook's scrapping of an artificial intelligence project after chatbots developed a language of their own that humans couldn't understand should also be considered in this context.
Artificial intelligence also has some factors that concern the general public.Their main concern is how artificial intelligence will affect their work. This also indicates the importance of devising more procedures in this area and ensuring that people are ready to accept them.
The biggest criticism in this field is that the introduction of artificial intelligence will eliminate the opportunities for humans to work.But, let's check what are the real facts related to this. It is a different sight to see artificial intelligence progressing from research and development to real business. One of the many uses of artificial intelligence is to develop next-generation models and make better use of human resources.Mackenzie points out that artificial intelligence could help achieve a 0.8 to 1.4% increase in global labor productivity by 2065. They want policy makers and corporates to understand the potential of artificial intelligence to empower the workforce.It would be useful to examine how the online supermarket Ocado in the UK has utilized artificial intelligence. Robotics plays a major role in warehouse planning. Thousands of products are handled by robots and delivered to humans for packaging.These products are filled in shopping bags and delivered to the delivery vehicles on time. The drivers of those vehicles will find the best route taking into account the traffic and weather conditions and travel on a favorable route through systems utilizing artificial intelligence.As technology advances, more new jobs are created than lost. The history of industrial and technological progress of the last 500 years also shows us the same. When workers in one sector are eliminated, more jobs are added to other sectors that require skills.If the concerns in this field are correct, unemployment should have increased in the past four to five decades in countries that have made progress in the field of mechanization such as Japan, Korea, and Germany. However, this is not the case.In the coming decades, many jobs will be modified with the help of artificial intelligence and artificial intelligence will become the mainstay of the background operations of almost all businesses. Many semi-skilled jobs will be eliminated by artificial intelligence.At the same time, no job that requires human intervention will be eliminated by artificial intelligence. Along with this, the demand for many areas such as entrepreneurship, strategic thinking, social leadership skills, sales skills, philosophy, etc., which require human thinking skills, will increase. Artificial intelligence will not be a leader in its own right.Along with that, the demand for highly skilled workers will increase tremendously.
What is needed here is to prepare and wait for such changes. Policy makers and corporates should be prepared to make the necessary changes in their education system in order to adapt to this kind of technological change.There is an urgent need in India to develop hubs at the national and state levels that will help develop entrepreneurship backed by design, innovation and versatility. Curriculum should also be developed based on universality, strategic thinking etc.There should also be moves to integrate activities at different levels and integrate and utilize artificial intelligence in their classrooms. National Skill Development Corporation should be changed to National Future Skills Development Corporation to prepare for the future today.
