What do we currently know about artificial intelligence? Let’s find out together in this dedicated article
The technological and digital evolution of the modern era is constant, year after year, leading to a series of incredible changes in the social, working and creative fabric. One of its main elements, especially starting from the second decade of the new Millennium, it is Artificial Intelligence.
A tool that is proving to be truly capable of evolving and growing thanks to the careful development of programmers and industry professionals hi-tech which, according to many, could be an excellent guide on how to navigate the web safely. AI has thus become a certainty of today’s era, permeating different application contexts: an element that we will delve into further below by exploring its sentient part, the one that generates images, or films, its pros and cons, and the links with Google and the figure of Giuliano Amato.
Sentient Artificial Intelligence: does it really exist?
The first point of analysis of this focus dedicated to Artificial Intelligence is the one that calls into question its possible sentient characterization. Many wonder whether one exists or not IA so intelligent that it almost constitutes a real entity in its own right. Therefore not as a simple cutting-edge technological tool still guided by the human being, but as an entity with its own identity and therefore sentient.
Lately, the evolutionary step that Artificial Intelligence is getting to know closely consists precisely in the new abilities of experiencing sensations and experiences. Therefore elements that make it incredibly close to the individual, effectively canceling the distance between man and machine. However, her sentience is something still in its infancy, in the embryonic stage and not as developed as many believe. But it is only a matter of time before this important step in the technological field is also achieved.
Does Artificial Intelligence generate images?
One of the main functions that Artificial Intelligence is currently able to perform is to generate images. Just think of ChatBots, or some Google extensions, which use AI to create truly credible images. The pro of this aspect is the creative one linked to the new artistic frontiers which would therefore have an element of absolute novelty and an essential cornerstone in AI. At the same time, the downside is that of using Artificial Intelligence for negative purposes as a generator of fake images which circulate on the web and on social media, sometimes putting well-known faces in difficulty, other times political or important figures for profit or defamation.
Are there films made with Artificial Intelligence?
At the moment there are no entire films made with Artificial Intelligence but only introductory and closing theme songs of a serial or film product. An example is the recent use by the Marvel for the creation of introductory theme songs for his TV series. But thinking of an entire film based on AI is still early and difficult to apply currently. But there is little left to ensure that this step is also completed, just as said in the previous paragraphs regarding the generation of images or the ability to be sentient.
What does Giuliano Amato have to do with Artificial Intelligence?
The link between the figure of Giuliano Amato and Artificial Intelligence is to be found in the recent appointment of the latter to the commission on AI. A commission that must closely study this technological element of enormous importance, but which in fact does not have experience in the sector in question in relation to Giuliano Amato. A constitutionalist with a very great history behind him who, however, does not fit well with a similar project.
A long-standing politician about whom there are several doubts raised by public opinion regarding Amato and his interaction with AI. However, it should also be recognized that the politician mentioned has published two books relating to the study of algorithms and has also signed the preface of the volume dedicated to the power of data manipulation written by the former privacy guarantor Antonello Soro. Therefore a connection between Amato and AI that could be very good, contrary to what they think at a public level.
Artificial Intelligence: pros and cons
Let’s now look closely at the pros and cons of Artificial Intelligence. As far as the pros are concerned, there is absolutely the ability to make the relationship between man and machine simpler and more immediate. An aspect that in the administrative field is significantly facilitating the bureaucratic digitalization process, speeding up a component that in Italy is historically slow. Or again, the use of AI in the artistic and creative field can be positively evaluated with the generation of pure avant-garde images or paintings that introduce the public to the knowledge of a new style.
Among the cons, however, there is certainly the reduction in job opportunities, where employment can gradually come less and less for the individual to the detriment of a massive use of technology and its tools such as AI. A factor that could concretely undermine public employment and consequently the economy of the country. Furthermore, there are other disadvantages related to discrimination, limitation of personal freedom, invasion of privacy, as happened in 2023 with ChatGpt, and manipulation of public opinion as issues of no small importance.
What is Google’s artificial intelligence called?
Finally, let’s see what Google’s Artificial Intelligence is called, a decidedly influential element that is attracting media attention today. PaLM 2 is Google’s new AI-powered language model, which includes scientific articles and various web pages. An important basis of the material generated on the Internet and then exploited by companies and brands is therefore already based on the use of Artificial Intelligence.
Thanks to its continuous training and updating, PaLM 2 is able to develop truly enormous logical reasoning. At least compared to the recent past, where similar skills were only possessed by super-developed mathematical systems. THEIn short, AI is a tool that can make a positive difference in various fields of application, but at the same time it can be a double-edged sword if used for criminal or illegal purposes. Just like when the Web was born, AI is also an emblem of historical demarcation in the technological field, since with it there will be a before and an after.
