35 Undisputed Facts About Artificial Intelligence That You’ll Have To Accept

6. Real-Life Avatar Coming Soon?

The James Cameron movie, Avatar, was a surprise hit years ago when it managed to give us some of the most beautiful visuals far ahead of its time. The director and writer of the film, Cameron, did not give us a massively compelling story. However, he brought in a factor of artificial intelligence that few considered. Today, Elon Musk wants to make the Avatar concept a reality for the world. His corporation is currently working on creating devices that can link human brains to robotic bodies.

Unlike what Dmitry Itskov wants to do, Musk’s plan is not to take your consciousness away and have you permanently move to a new artificial body. Rather, have you wear a removable headset that gives your brain full control of a robotic body. This is the exact concept of Avatar without the race of weird blue beings. This means you’ll be able to go in and out of your artificial and human forms.

5. AI May Actually Create Jobs Too

It is clear that one of the most mentioned facts about artificial intelligence is that they will be taking jobs from humans. This is true but you should not see this as a negative. Why? Because machines have taken jobs from humans a lot over the years yet people are still employed. They are able to do this due, in part, to what these machines offered.

Sure, you might not be able to mine coal any longer. Yet you can help to write code for the machines that are doing so. You can also work in many areas operating machines and making programs. Jobs like Data Detective work, Ethical Sourcing, Cyber City Analysis, Highway Control, and Personal Memory Coordinating will all be created or enhanced by the rise of Artificial Intelligence in the workplace alone.

4. AI Citizenship

One of the biggest facts about artificial intelligence that will likely become reality is that AI will possibly be considered equal to man. It is unlikely to happen within our lifetime. However, in the future robotic AI will be so intelligent and well-made, we will likely not know the difference between an AI person and human being. As a result, a push will likely be made to make them equal to us.

We’re already seeing this happen somewhat. The AI Robot known as Sophia was granted citizenship to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Do you know what the worst part about this was? This female robot has more rights than the human women of this nation have right now. Sofia is not going to be the last AI to see this happen either.

3. Artificial Intelligence May Truly Be Like The Minority Report

The movie known as The Minority Report is quite compelling but it teaches us a very big lesson. Sometimes, we can go too far with preventative material. In the film, artificial intelligence is so advanced that it can predict a crime possibly happening before it actually does. The real issue is that it does not tend to know the reasoning for it. However, this type of AI is already in development. Predictive artificial intelligence has been in the works and even applied to various stuff for years.

To get to the level of what we see in the movie may take a long time though. The SGI Altix supercomputer known as Nautilus is already doing something like this. It was able to predict the hiding place of Osama bin Laden within 125 miles and it predicted the Arab Spring that began in December of 2010. This is quite massive and if it expands its future-casting, a Minority Report world could be possible.

2. Most Of The Major AI Will Go Into The World Of Sex First

People do not want to talk about it but it’s simply one of the most well-known facts about artificial intelligence that is going to happen, whether we like or not. AI robotic figures will be made for the world of sexual satisfaction, similar to that of an advanced sex doll. Let’s face it, some men and women are not going to get the love they want from a real human being.

It’s sad but simply a fact we cannot ignore. Due to this, they will find what they need in AI Robotics. This could result in human beings choosing to be with AI robots as partners over real human beings, which could even bring the human population down as a result. While we are many decades from something like that happening, we are less than 20 years away from sophisticated and lifelike sex robots.

1. The AI Apocolypse

We cannot have a list like this and miss out on the biggest theory of all, artificial intelligence will one day take over the world, right? Well, not exactly. An Apocolypse the likes of science fiction movies is highly unlikely, especially with advanced weaponry like EMPs capable of stopping any robot or machine for bursts of time. On top of this, humans are the ones who make AI.

If anything, AI will always be a victim to what made wants it to be. Even if it develops intelligence beyond what it is equipped with, this does not mean it will decide to kill all humans. Unless someone makes an Ultron-like being, it simply will be impossible to see. We will not likely see a being the likes of Ultron because making something like that would effectively be committing suicide.
