1900: The world before the 4th Industrial Revolution and advanced technologies

# data[].attributes.body
Before the 4th Industrial Revolution, advanced technologies did not exist at all leading to a rather traditional way of working, especially in farms.

Therefore, many workers were needed and 50% of the US population was working on farms in the late 19th century.

21st Century : The beginning of a new era for humanity

# data[].attributes.body
The 4th Revolution started in early 2000s with the first advanced technologies, such as computers, being used by the general population.

This is a turning point in human history where advanced technologies became absolutely essential, not only for work but also for one's everyday life.

Seeing such progress in mechanisation and technology, many farmers decided to leave their land causing less than 2% of US workers to remain employed on farms by 2000.

Technology and modernisation : The worries

# data[].attributes.body
With this wave of progress comes a wave of worries : everything is evolving at a rapid rate and it is hard to keep up those many changes.

No new jobs had been created in the US in the first decade of the 21st century causing a wave of unemployment and alarming the population. Will robots replaces us ? Or are they ALREADY replacing us...?

First, here is some context to better understand...

# data[].attributes.body
Mechanisation (1st) was quickly progressing in the mid-1900s, leading to the emergence of the other two major Industrial Revolutions around the same time : the Electronic (2nd) and Digital (3rd) Revolutions.

# data[].attributes.body
It is true, to an extent, that advanced technologies ARE and WILL replace us. The truth is, they have the potential to be way faster and more accurate than any expert in their field.

So whether it is AI, 3D printing, robotics, Big Data, life sciences in genetic or medical imaging, those technologies are designed to be better than humans and will one day surpass us.

And that's good news !

When thinking about the future of robots, we tend to image the worst : they take over the world and humanity is doomed. However, this is most probably (and hopefully) not going to happen.

Instead of this horror scenario, have you ever thought about humanity curing cancer or other less known serious illnesses ? About traveling by car without having to drive ? Maybe about having better drug options when you have a headache and do not want to take paracetamol ?

Well, AI can do all of that. And so much more with enough time.

Machine Learning : what is it exactly...?

# data[].attributes.body
Quickly explained, machine learning is literally the ability for technology to be able to learn on its own. Instead of humans implementing knowledge and information one by one, the machine has access to a wide range of data and learns from it.

This way, it is able to make predictions and figure things out, sometimes even things that humans have not figured yet.

# data[].attributes.body
Watson is an intelligent software system (such as ChatGPT) that is able to understand one's personality type, to write an email and even to read an encyclopedia and extract knowledge from it.

Far from being all it can do, Watson is also able to increase doctors' and dermatologists' knowledge on skin cancer. Indeed, it can predict with a 95% accuracy whether or not a patient will develop melanoma.

Robots are not dangerous, but the humans using them may be

# data[].attributes.body
Because robots are built with such amazing and morally good capabilities, it does not mean that there is no danger at all using them.

In fact, as with most things, humans tend to misuse technologies and make it a potentiel threat to humanity and more precisely : our confidentiality.

It is no secret that nowadays, companies collect data from other firms' processes, but also on their employees and customers. And you might be one of them.

With over 1 thousand billion GB of data stored on the world's computers, companies have found an easy way to know their customers' preferences and personalize algorithms to make them buy more.

They also sell this data to generate a profit.

AI and technologies : numbers and expectations

# data[].attributes.body
In total, the AI healthcare market was expected to generate a revenue of over 6 billion US dollars in 2021.

However, it is also expected that half of the jobs worlwide could disappear in the next 20 years, with 60 millions of them being in the US alone.

Journalism, for example, is bound to disappear. Indeed, data and machines could simply generate stories and relate them on national television. It is even estimated that soon, 90% of the stories we hear will be AI generated.

# data[].attributes.body
This job market crisis would definitely lead to unprecedented riots and civil wars.

In fact, low income people would get poorer whilst the wealthy ones would get richer day by day. This dynamic would deepen the gap between social classes and therefore, deepen inequality.

It is important to keep in mind that we are still able to counter this dynamic by acting right now.

If we find a way to create more jobs as others are lost and if we give enough time for everybody to adapt to the changes, then there is a chance for humanity to avoid this scenario.

The essentials and what you should remember

If there is one thing you must remember from all of this, it should be : fear humans more than robots !

Advanced technologies will allow humanity to become more productive and efficient, but the direction in which they are heading depends entirely on the people who own those machines.

Let's make a positive change in the world by giving those technologies to well-intended people !
