Technology has become a crucial component of our daily lives. We use it for anything from quick math calculations to researching the newest fashion trends. Our Apple Watches, phones, and computers have all merged into one. Therefore, it would be expected that technology will progress through time. We have all seen the robot revolt or uprising, in which artificial intelligence (AI) grows so advanced that it no longer requires humans to survive, leading to a full-scale war with humans. I don't think this will happen in my lifetime, but there's no denying that machine learning will make robots smarter and more effective. When a computer focuses on using data and algorithms to mimic the way people learn, this process is known as machine learning, which helps computers become more accurate over time. Siri for Apple and the For You Page on TikTok are two examples of this machine learning. Artificial intelligence, which includes machine learning, continues to advance the field of computers. Due to the fact that these algorithms will promote the things that attract people and can lead to higher product consumption, this innovation has enhanced the productivity and success of specific businesses and individuals.
A component of AI programming called machine learning is crucial to how AI processes information and learns from it. This observation of "Big Data," which, as the name implies, contains a range of facts used by the AI to, in a way of saying, evolve itself, is made possible. Let me ask a question so you can see the incident in the present times. Do you ever feel as though your phone is listening in on what you are saying? You mention wanting a pair of shoes, and when you look at YouTube on your phone, you see commercials or advertisements for various shoe manufacturers. This is an example of machine learning. Social media apps like TikTok use extremely sophisticated machine learning AI programming that can collect a lot of information about us personally.
Let's revisit the TikTok algorithm and go much deeper into how it works. This very sophisticated program is able to determine how long it takes you to become disinterested in something on the website. As a result, it starts to provide you with things that can be rapidly seen, keeping you continually interested in what the website has to offer. This is what makes TikTok so addicting. The algorithm can create a digital profile of you called the "For You Page" that includes information on your gender, age in general, and political views. The fact that this deep learning requires no human input to obtain the data is one of the strangest and most terrifying aspects of it. It works at a much higher rate collecting data and growing it AI to a high level of artificial intelligence since it can read and collect data more quickly than any person can.
I am constantly on TikTok and as someone who has a decent sized platform on the app, I know more about the algorithm than most people. I go on the app every day and I am always surprised that they know what videos to put on my page and what I can relate to. Even if I did not include my interests when making my account so they know what videos to put on my For You, they still find a way to know everything about you. When watching certain videos, I will be like, "how did TikTok know" or "this is way too specific for it to not be about me." It is mind-blowing to see just how much technology has evolved and advanced over the years. It makes people like me become more addicted because you start believing every video you see because it is way too accurate.
Additionally, as technology advances, computers are starting to teach individuals how to carry out specific tasks and have even replaced many people in the workforce. In terms of healthcare specifically, AI is capable of performing more exact incisions on patients and even providing exact diagnosis far faster than some of the most skilled medical professionals. Even some concealed threats like cancer that some doctors generally neglect can be discovered by them, according to research. It is becoming more and more unsettling to consider the possibility that many employments could eventually be created more by robots and AI than by humans. There will be fewer jobs available as this machine develops and learns more on its own. The machine is more effective and efficient in performing the task.
We should keep a close eye on this ever-improving AI. It develops far more quickly, than we anticipated, which could ultimately ruin us all. Additionally, we must maintain human labor in the workforce and not rely solely on these technologies. Despite being less effective, they may nonetheless function in adverse settings, unlike other machines. In light of the fact that robots are constantly learning, even when people aren't aware of it, I advise everyone to log out of all their personal profiles and set Siri to muted. You never know you is listening or watching your accounts, so it is best that you can log off or turn off Siri so personal information cannot be targeted by a hacker or anyone listening.
Machine learning has both positive and negative effects. This is due to the fact that when a system analyzes our generated data, it collects their personal information, violating their right to privacy. Even merely by observing your online behavior, computers are able to determine a person's age and gender. Machine learning is harmful because as it gains knowledge, it becomes less dependent on humans to manage it and maintain it online, thus giving the computer an advantage over people in terms of power.
