We have all seen many movies in which AI takes over the world and tries to eliminate humans. Movies like Terminator show the future danger in this technology but it seems like we are all turning deaf ears to it. I haven't gone to the future myself to check this out, I'm just saying that AI technology is vast and we need to be careful.

However, the idea of AI has been in existence for a while now but we failed to recognize it, the number one is the calculator.

WHAT IS AN AI?

According to Britannica,

Artificial intelligence (AI), is the ability of a digital computer or computer-controlled robot to perform tasks commonly associated with intelligent beings.

In today's article, I will be talking about some of the major flaws in AI that make humans better than machines. These flaws are not what can be computed to technology and even though some things make AI better, these flaws will prevent AI from being able to do everything.

It is common knowledge that a machine can do a lot more than humans.
While growing up, we were taught that a machine is a device that makes work easier and faster. So just like a tractor and other machines, the AI is also able to make work easier and faster. Below are more reasons why AI is needed in our lives and why it needs to be infused into our technology.
AI and humans each have their strengths and weaknesses, and there are certain tasks or attributes where AI excels compared to humans, and vice versa. Here are some aspects to consider:

1. Speed and Efficiency: As I said earlier, AI can process large amounts of data and perform simple and intense calculations much faster than we humans. No matter how complex, AI can outperform humans faster and capable of accomplishing any task with ease.

2. Accuracy: AI can be incredibly accurate when trained and tested properly. In tasks like image recognition, speech recognition, or data analysis amongst others, AI can also achieve higher levels of accuracy than humans without human errors.

3. Memory: AI systems can store and recall vast amounts of information with perfect accuracy, whereas human memory is fallible and limited.

4. Monotony and Repetition: AI doesn't tire or get bored, making it well-suited for tasks that are repetitive or monotonous, which might cause humans to lose focus or efficiency over time.

5. Objective Decision Making: AI can make decisions based solely on data and predefined algorithms, without being influenced by emotions, biases, or external factors that may affect human decision-making.

However, there are areas where humans still excel:

1. Ingenuity and Innovation: Humans can think creatively, imagine new ideas, and innovate in ways that AI cannot. Creative fields such as art, music, literature, and invention rely heavily on human originality.

2. Emotional Intelligence: Humans possess emotional intelligence, the ability to understand and empathize with others, which is currently beyond the capabilities of AI. This is crucial in areas such as counseling, therapy, negotiation, and interpersonal communication.

3. Contextual Understanding and Adaptability: Humans can adapt to new situations, and understand context in a way that AI finds it difficult with. Human's ability to know something without having to consciously think about it and common sense play significant roles in decision-making in uncertain or unexpected situations.

4. Ethical and Moral Judgment: Humans can make subtle ethical and moral judgments based on complex considerations, whereas AI operates solely based on already written out rules and objectives. Ethical puzzles, moral reasoning, and understanding societal norms are areas where humans excel.

In conclusion, while AI has made significant advancements and outperforms humans in certain tasks, there are still many areas where humans possess unique strengths that AI cannot replicate. The ideal scenario often involves depending on the strengths of both AI and humans in supportive ways.
