Data + AI Summit 2023 Keynote Day 2 Part 3

Practical Limitations and Potential Benefits of AI - Data + AI Summit Keynote Day 2

​This is Johann from the Global Engineering Department of the GLB Division. ​ Today, we bring you a report from the Data + AI Summit Keynote Day 2, which is packed with discussions on the practical limitations and potential benefits of AI. In our previous article, we talked about efforts and technological innovations aimed at democratizing data and AI. In this article, we will discuss how AI can impact our lives and potentially save the world, with concrete examples and technical elements. ​

Introducing AI Programs to Children

​ The importance of introducing AI programs to children was discussed during the keynote. It was argued that all children should have lifelong access to AI teachers, coaches, tutors, mentors, and advisors. This would enable children to learn more effective learning methods, leading to future success. ​

A Brief Look at the History of AI

​ The early history of AI in the 1930s, 40s, and 50s was also briefly touched upon during the keynote. This helps us understand how current AI technology has evolved through various stages. ​

  • 1930s: The concept of AI is first proposed
  • 1940s: Research on neural networks begins
  • 1950s: Development of AI programs becomes more prominent

Latest AI Technologies and Their Applications

​ The latest AI technologies were also discussed, with the following concepts, functions, and services introduced:

  1. Natural Language Processing (NLP): Technology that understands and analyzes human language

  2. Image Recognition: Technology that extracts and classifies information from images

  3. Deep Learning: Technology that learns features from large amounts of data and performs predictions and classifications

​ These technologies are being utilized in various fields such as medicine, education, and business, making people's lives more convenient and prosperous. ​

The Potential of AI to Save the World

​ The potential of AI to save the world was also mentioned during the keynote. For example, AI technology can be used to improve energy efficiency and promote sustainable development in order to address climate change and environmental issues. In the medical field, the development of AI-assisted diagnostics and treatments is advancing, playing a role in protecting people's health. ​ In this way, AI technology is being utilized in various fields and holds the potential to make the world a better place. As technological innovations continue to advance, more benefits are likely to be discovered. ​

Changes in AI and Programming

​ During the Data + AI Summit Keynote Day 2, interesting topics were raised about the changes in AI and programming. While understanding the basics of programming remains important, the emphasis was on AI's ability to propose solutions, fix bugs, and complete complex tasks as programmers transition to a role more like managers of AI assistants. ​

The New Relationship Between AI Assistants and Programmers

​ With the use of AI, programmers are shifting from writing code from scratch to managing AI assistants. This allows programmers to tackle more advanced tasks. Specifically, the following points were raised: ​

  1. AI proposes solutions: AI can propose the best solutions to problems faced by programmers.

  2. AI fixes bugs: AI can automatically detect and fix bugs in programs.

  3. AI completes complex tasks: AI can solve complex tasks that are difficult for programmers to handle.

The Spread of Low-Code and No-Code Tools

​ The spread of low-code and no-code tools is making programming more accessible to non-programmers. This allows people without programming expertise to easily develop applications and systems. ​

People Engaging in More Valuable Work

​ As AI takes over some aspects of programming, people can engage in more valuable work. This allows people to utilize skills that are difficult for AI, such as creativity and strategic thinking. ​ In this keynote, the changes in AI and programming were discussed with concrete examples and technical elements. As technological innovations continue to advance, the relationship between AI and programming is expected to further develop, making programming more accessible to more people. ​

Summary

​ In this article, we discussed the practical limitations and potential benefits of AI, as well as the changes in AI and programming. AI technology not only makes our lives more convenient and prosperous but also holds the potential to save the world. Furthermore, the world of programming is becoming more accessible to more people due to the influence of AI. As technological innovations continue to advance, more benefits are likely to be discovered.
