“Knowledge is power”. In our days, artificial intelligence is giving us access to that knowledge in an awesome way, but it has both positive and negative impacts on society.
On one side, AI has positive things in different areas. In education it helps in several ways like: to have all the answers correct, solve complicated problems step by step and produce texts quickly so you can approve your exams and homeworks in an easier way. In healthcare it helps to diagnose and treat some diseases. Finally in jobs related to computers like software development AI tools like copilot help programmers to write the code.
On the other side, AI has some negative things like: you don’t learn new topics because you don’t put any effort and you only search for the answers, you become dependent on AI and you don’t improve your thinking skills and you can’t identify what is real from what is made-up.
In conclusion, AI has both good and bad impacts on society. But it is important to remember that the brain is a muscle and you have to use it to become smarter.
