Artificial intelligence-powered tools have exploded online in recent months. The technology behind chatbots such as ChatGPT has gained worldwide attention for its ability to help users with myriad tasks.
Chatbots can also write essays, sermons, and predict stock price movements. The rise of tools like ChatGPT has made it easier for some to integrate artificial intelligence into their daily lives.
However, the technology is not without concerns. Some of the computer scientists who helped build the foundation of today’s AI technology have warned of its potential dangers. These include the possibility of using AI to destabilize the job market or manufacture automatic weapons. This technology also raises ethical issues related to plagiarism, prejudice, and disclosure of personal information.
Nevertheless, AI has helped users in many ways beyond essay writing and stock market analysis. For example, several Toronto-based college students have developed an app featuring an AI therapist. It is hoped that this will remove some of the barriers that may exist around accessing mental health care. Recent research also shows that AI may help detect early signs of Alzheimer’s disease.
