Ai taking over the world

Artificial intelligence (AI) has been a hot topic in recent years, with many experts predicting that it will have a significant impact on the future of humanity. Some people have even gone as far as to suggest that AI could eventually "take over the world."

While it's true that AI has the potential to be incredibly powerful, the idea that it will take over the world is more science fiction than science fact. There are several reasons why this is unlikely to happen.

First, it's important to remember that AI is simply a tool. It doesn't have its own goals or motivations. It can only do what it's programmed to do. This means that any potential negative effects of AI would be the result of human decisions, not the technology itself.

Second, there are many organizations and individuals working to ensure that AI is developed and used ethically. Researchers, policymakers, and industry leaders are all working to establish guidelines and best practices for the development and use of AI.

Third, it's important to remember that AI is not a monolithic technology. There are many different types of AI, and each has its own strengths and weaknesses. For example, machine learning and deep learning are used to analyze data and make predictions, while natural language processing is used to understand and respond to human language.

Ultimately, while it's true that AI has the potential to change the world in many ways, it's unlikely that it will take over the world. As long as we continue to develop and use AI responsibly, we can reap the benefits of this powerful technology while minimizing any potential negative effects.

In summary, it's a myth that AI will take over the world. AI is a tool, and it's the humans who operate and regulate its use. There are several organizations and individuals working to ensure that AI is developed and used ethically. It's important to remember that AI is not a monolithic technology, and each has its own strengths and weaknesses. Therefore, we must use AI responsibly to reap the benefits of this powerful technology while minimizing any potential negative effects

Unleashing Productivity: AI-Powered Solutions in Management

Leaders across industries are looking for new ways to drive efficiency across operations, streamline production, and gain an advantage over their competition. With that in mind, it’s no wonder that Generative AI (or GenAI), one of the newest on-market technologies, has become such a popular topic. But the buzz around it, and the increasingly wild speculation about what GenAI might unlock for business owners, leaves leaders like you with one very important question: what can GenAI do for me, right here, right now?

Let’s break down how leaders like you can use GenAI to unleash productivity within your organization.

Firstly, we need to break down what we mean when we use the term “GenAI.”

GenAI (or generative AI) is typically another term for a large language model (LLM) that takes a large pool of data, leverages it to understand the relationships between words, and then produces content in response to user prompts. The types of content it can produce are as varied as the prompts users can come up with; and as a result, GenAI can, in theory, be used to produce everything from social copy to thought leadership blogs and more.

When GenAI enters the conversation, many people focus on that content creation aspect; in reality, the value-add it’ll provide to your organization is in productivity enhancements. Case studies have shown that AI has increased the productivity of employees in a variety of industries, from call centers to software developers. As a general-purpose technology, it has a massive amount of potential use cases; the ways it will interact with your organization and enhance the productivity of your workers will likely differ from others.

That being said, as we go, we’ll illustrate a few general, practical uses for GenAI that may be relevant to your organization.

Optimizing Warehouse Operations

Take for example the manufacturing industry, which is no stranger to human-robot collaboration. Manufacturers have been benefiting from the aid of cutting-edge robotics tech for a while now; and while they are no strangers to change, they may wonder how AI will adjust the human-robot equation.

AI is a tool that you can deploy to attain a greater degree of efficiency. AI-powered tools can facilitate the construction takeoff process, read and analyze and even correct blueprints, and cut down on material waste by predicting how much will be needed to complete projects.

That being said, much like with robots, there are additional factors to take into consideration when integrating new technology into a potentially dangerous workspace. Only by emphasizing the importance of collaboration can leaders ensure that their human-robot work environment remains positive and safe for all involved.

While AI-powered robots may be able to help with manual tasks like heavy lifting, humans will need to contribute by making sure safety protocols are followed, regular maintenance is performed, and double-checking robots’ work for errors.

Reducing Human Error

AI can also streamline production by reducing occurrences of human error. AI works with robotic precision, automating manual tasks like data entry and entering each value correctly. Moreover, AI can also be used to reduce human error in the decision-making process, helping leaders compare data models and select the most profitable path to value.

Let’s use AI-powered product tracking as an example. Keeping track of items as they move through shipping and fulfillment is an issue that affects a large number of industries, as barcodes contain limited amounts of data, can be easily duplicated by malefactors, and even sometimes fall off of products. Using RFID tags, Near-Field communication tags or other smart labeling systems can be good alternatives to barcodes, and they can also carry much more data.

When combined with the analytical powers of AI and computer vision detection, this makes it much easier for companies to automatically register, track, and provide detailed information on where a product is in the supply chain. This way, if a human error arises and it is unclear where a specific item is, it is much easier to locate it and provide updates to important stakeholders.  

AI can be integrated into business systems to allow employees to work smarter, not harder; and in our smart labeling system example, that is very much the case. Instead of having employees spend half their day scanning barcodes throughout your store and meticulously checking and double checking everything is where it should be, AI does all of that for you. Employees will be free to serve customers, restock, and perform various other store tasks as needed.

Increasing Efficiency

Jumping off our last point, AI’s most powerful use case is helping your employees work smarter, not harder. When your employees aren’t busy working on manual tasks, they’re free to chase other, potentially lucrative areas of growth. AI helps your workers turn out their best work, which then helps your organization drive profit; it’s a powerful, circular relationship that will boost your profitability job satisfaction, and your chances of being on the cutting edge of innovation.

You can leverage your performance metrics system to determine where AI is most needed, and then keep track of its impact on those sectors over time. Some tweaking may be needed, as a change of this scale is almost always iterative; but with the information to detect pain points, you’ll be well on your way to driving productivity across departments.

We hope this primer gave you some insight into how AI can be used to drive productivity across your business. As you use this exciting technology to streamline operations and drive productivity, we hope you see the stellar growth you’re aiming for and land among the giants of your industry.

becoming an engineer has imbued me with several obnoxious traits but one of the worst is a lessening of the patience i have for people who suggest "obvious" solutions to massive long-standing engineering problems, in a way that suggests that they caught something that the army of engineers who spent decades of man-hours trying to solve the same issue just... missed. the direct impetus behind this post is all the people on the Biblically Accurate Highways post commenting stuff like "that could have been a roundabout" under the pic of the High-Five Interchange (no, it could not have), but im also thinking about those posts a few years back saying that warehouse automation will never take off because the robot roaming the aisles at their local grocery store looking for spills has to stop for people, which means all robots are slow and stupid. like i promise you, PINKY promise even, that you are not smarter than an entire field of engineering. you're not even AS smart as a field of engineering. if your layman ass can identify a problem with a seemingly obvious solution, either the problem is not actually a problem, the solution creates more problems than it solves relative to the currently implemented solution, or (rarely) the solution is actually that obvious but will never happen under capitalism. and in the latter case that's not an engineering issue, that's a capitalism issue. or the layperson is suggesting that some system should just be replaced with a train, which is almost always correct but runs up against car culture and infrastructure having a century of momentum behind it in the US. the laypeople can have that W at least, that one literally is that simple, just tear up the highways and replace them all with metro lines. note that i said "simple" and not "easy" or "economically feasible in the short-term"

Chapters: Part One Part Two Part Three Choose Another ending

You have to do this! It's all you've been talking about for a week!"

"I just can't!"

Idia was all dressed in a suit and bow tie, but stubbornly standing outside the door to the restaurant. Ortho gave him a pleading look.

"Idia! Come on! Pull it together! You'll always regret it if you don't go in there!"

As Idia was about to send out another string of curses, when an angry Grim, wearing a bow tie, and holding a clipboard, slammed open the door and stomped over to Idia.

"Shroud, pull yourself together or, I swear to the seven, Ashengrotto and I will have a reconciliation, and you'll never have another chance with Y/N!"

With that shout out of his system, he stormed back into the restaurant, probably to try and tell the band and you that "your date" was still coming.

Idia was still frozen, but now it wasn't just out of social anxiety, it was the anxiety that if he blew tonight, he blew any chance of future nights with you.

"Okay, that's it," Ortho said, pushing Idia.

"No…"Idia said through gritted teeth.

"Initiating thrusters," Ortho said, and Idia heard the thrusters kick in, and felt Ortho's pushing get significantly stronger.

"No, no no!"

Once Ortho had pushed him through the door, he let him go, and escaped back out, leaving Idia to make eye contact with you and the band. A smile bloomed across your face, and you waved at him.

Idia took a steadying breath, and robotically walked over to your table, taking a seat.

"Sorry I'm late," he muttered.

"It's totally fine! I'm just happy that you're my date. The last date Grim set me up on was with Azul, and, well, I'm sure you heard how that went."

Idia nodded. The entirety of NRC had heard the story of how Grim had been roped into a contract with Azul, so that Azul could date you. Only a select few knew the truth, though.  Azul had begun construction on a second branch, which meant his income was slightly lower this quarter. And Grim wasn't that good at business math. Which meant Idia was in.

"You're happy it's me?" He asked, unable to hold eye contact with you.

"I mean, yeah. Of course I'm happy it's you! I like you. Quite a lot," you grinned, and his hair turned a deep red as he buried himself in his hoodie like a turtle.

As if the moment couldn't get anymore overwhelming, you looked over your shoulder at Grim, who was yelling at the singer in the band, and then leaned in enough that he could deeply inhale your scent.

"Wanna get outta here?"

….

The two of you were quietly walking along campus. Neither of you spoke, but neither of you needed too. It was a comfortable silence.

At length, Idia muttered," I quite like you, too."

You looked startled, but then smiled happily.

"I'm so happy, Idia. Thank you."

"Why? I'm just a loser otaku, with freaky blue hair…"

"Sevens, Idia! You're sweet, you're smart, you're funny, and despite how you feel, you're quite hot. Like that jawline could cut glass, dude."

He looked at you, not convinced.

"My god, I have to do everything around here," you said with a groan, before grabbing his face and kissing him.

His eyes widened in shock, but as he watched, you seemed to be enjoying the kiss. So he closed his eyes, and just took you in, letting the moment be.

"Y/N! Shroud!" 

You separated, and he couldn't stop himself from chasing your lips, until he realized that the angry sound was Grim.

"Both of you skipped out on your rather expensive date, so I just had to pay the bill. I expect rapid reimbursement."

You raised an eyebrow at Grim, then rolled your eyes.

"Whatever, Grimmy. Your money comes from me anyway."

"Don't sass me! This has been a rather stressful evening! We're going home, and neither of you gets to see each other until you've learned your lesson."

He stormed off, and you made to follow, but not before leaning in to Idia and whispering, "Let's do this in your room next time."

His heart was so full as he watched you leave, a dreamy sigh on his lips.
