Let's talk about AI

You might ask me, why I've decided to choose so unusual theme for my new essay. It's because I need to prepare a speech about benefits of AI in different business areas in my country. It's part of my English homework for tomorrow. So, I made up my mind to combine my writing hobby and preparation for tomorrow's lesson. Let's begin.

In my motherland IT sphere is really high-leveled. I think, we have advanced internet-banking system, social system, telephony and internet. And this is all because the time, when technology started to evolve in my country later compared with Europe or America. Even though we still have a lot to improve. And new developments in data science, machine learning and artificial intelligence could give us a big opportunity to make services for people in my country cheaper and more convenient. Of course if we weather the storm.Sorry, I try to maintain a positive mindset.

First of all I want to explain in my words what AI is. AI or Artificial Intelligence is a kind of software or a computer program, which can do some things in human way. In other word it can behave in special, pre-established situations like a real man. However AI is not so smart nowadays. It's level of intelligence doesn't exceed the level of ordinary person, and it's still "robotic" - not "human" nor "creatural". It can't understand things in the way like humans can. Although it can collect, process and keep information in its memory, make some simple new things: pictures, music, videos, assumption, it can't do something more without programmers command. But maybe as time will go on AI will make a decisions and get feelings like an ordinary human. And I hope this period of human's history wouldn't be like in "Westworld" series.

I was a little bit carried away with this discourse about humanization of AI. Let's get back to our business. To my mind the most important sphere, where AI could do the best in my country is medicine. Especially in long-distant regions, where not so many doctors live. AI could be used there to diagnose diseases. Maybe it also could help with some surgeries, take care of ill people in hospitals and do some other medical procedures. And of course this kind of AI should be done with help of doctors, biologists and other professionals of medicine.

The next area where AI could be deployed well is education. And as in previous assumption it would be in place in villages, small towns. Because these places also stayed without required amount of specialists in schools. And as I talked before about who should take part in developing, for this AI type should be teachers, psychologists, mentors and other specialists, who work with children. One more point in favor this type of AI - it could be also used in medicine. Some people after insult need specialists to relearn reading and speaking.

Now my fantasy is done and my brain is also somewhere beyond my head. Like it went through my ears to outside. Sorry, it sounds disgusting. But yes, after writing something big I feel proud of my self and become really exhausted. But I hope as much I use English as faster I get an advanced level and as bigger chances I will have to find a cool job abroad. I try to live my dreams. I hope while you were reading my a little bit tedious essay, you weren't twisting in the wind. Thank you 😊
