Technology brief
In the 21st century, innovations in the field of information and technology have transformed every aspect of social life, including business. The application of new technologies has changed the way business and organization carry their main operations, service their customers, and respond to market challenges, making it an important element in any business’s success. The application of technology in business ranges from the tools which business use to collect, manipulate, store, and share the main information to all the stakeholders. In the modern field of business, organizations are focused on implementing technological innovations made for personalized use to reduce operations costs, enhancing efficiency and effectiveness of production approaches. Currently, businesses worldwide are witnessing their main operations be changed by new technologies that have resulted in new business models. Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the emerging technologies that significantly change the way the business operates. The paper will provide a critical analysis of AI by proving the history of the technology, advantages, disadvantages of using the technology, and the current AI application in society.
Evaluation of AI and its application
Since its introduction, artificial intelligence has been applied in different sectors within society. Despite that the technology is still new, its benefits in society have shown how technology will shape society’s future. Government institutions and corporations are using AI in different ways to enhance their operations. The health care sector is one of the sectors which have implemented the application of AT. For many decades, healthcare professionals have been researching different approaches to treat patients and gather information. The emergency of AI seems to have provided the answers which the health care professionals have been researching. The application of AI in the health care sector has helped healthcare professionals recognize disease patterns and come up with a cure within a short period of time. Besides, AI is to be used in the health care sector to address healthcare professionals’ scarcity.
The transportation sector has also applied the use of AI. The technology is being applied in the sector to address the issue of traffic. For instance, traffic cameras and sensors are installed in different locations to monitor traffic and reduce crime. The patterns obtained in the data gathered can be used to make predictions. Besides, technology is being implemented in the education sector to improve the education system. This is be achieved through the creation of personalized learning programs.
The implementation of AI seems to be the future of society due to the benefits which can be achieved through its application. The application of technology provides different usefulness to society. Improved prediction is one of the major befit which is derived from the application of AI. Individuals and businesses can make better predictions, thus avoiding costly errors. Energy optimization and effective utilization of the available resources is another usefulness that AI presents. However, the implementation of technology presents some risks to society. Some individuals and groups might take advantage of the technology to program something devastating. For instance, the technology can be programmed to kill. Besides, the technology application has the risk of increasing the gap between the rich and the poor due to the unequal distribution of resources.
Conclusion
The application of AI in different sectors has proved to be the future of society. However, be new technology; its application remains to be unclear for many people. The main source of conflict in the application of AI is due to lack of knowledge and computing power need. To address this challenge, there is a need for more contact researchers about the topic. Creating more knowledge will help in addressing the challenges which are connected to the application of the technology.
