AI - Artificial Intelligence - has many use cases today. It is a technological tool that has proven to have many applications and yet many more applications to come. It is one technology that while many appreciate its applications to make our life easier in many fields, including finance, many more warn of their dangers to humanity. My post today on Azà Hub (azaland.com) is about what I see as the immediate and more potent dangers of employing this tool for human interactions, especially in written and spoken communication.
Communication - written and oral - is an integral part of humanity. It is one thing that distinguishes us and makes us unique. Communication in itself, conveys actionable and sensitive information between the sender and the receiver. Effective communication is agreed to be complete only when the "sender" transmits the "intended information" to the "receiver" who in turn gives the accurate "intended feedback" back to the original sender.

We agree that any break in transmission or adulteration or alterations along the way, be it of the original intended message or of the intended feedback will erode the effectiveness and accuracy of the communication. And as we know it, the transmitted information is so sensitive that they are actionable. And when and adulterated message gets passed, wrong and unintended interpretation and unintended action are likely to follow.

This is the danger we are having romance with in a careless manner. But to understand my points today, let's discuss a little history of AI applications, an early warning we ignored as well as the applications of AI today in human communication- including the use of ChatGPT variants and more.

COMMUNICATION - OUR LIFEBLOOD
Communication drives all human interactions - be it in business, finance, war, love, family, peace, team, and all others. Our communication is our humanity lifeblood. And if anything threatens that lifeblood, we must be careful. Therefore, while many people feared that AI will replace us physically, I am of the strong opinion that AI intends to eat us inside out by destroying our lifeblood- communication efficiency

EARLY USE - TEXT PREDICTIONS
Check your Android keyboard on your phone and try sending a message be it on WhatsApp or other means like email, chat rooms and more. The Text Prediction feature was the primitive stage of Artificial Intelligence that was meant to make our life better. See the image below.
The Text Prediction feature seemingly made typing easier because it appeared to take the words out of our mouth. It seemed it knew the "right" word that we wanted to use. But is that true? Is that really true? How could a artificial entity know a better word you needed to use to convey your accurate emotions and message?

EARLY WARNING IGNORED
I swear I once read an article about 5 years ago written by an expert warning us about the dangers of reliance on the text Prediction feature on effective human communication. He argued that while we believe the machine was making life easier, it was actually deciding for us. I believed him strongly.

I conducted an experiment.
A. I typed a messaged of about 100 words with Text Prediction ON to convey my feelings to a friedmnd whom I hosted his family buy the children behaved poorly during the stay.
B. I composed the same message with the Prediction feature turned OFF for the same purpose.

Guess what I found!
The wordings were different. While the machine predicted and suggested majority of the key words I used in the first instance based on its "learning", the other text conveyed my feelings more accurately.

And Alas! Text Prediction affects only few keywords, yet I could see the dangers of using the wrong words on the overall meaning and emotions conveyed in the message. Now let's talk about when you allow the Artificial, non-living machine write the entire message! That's time bomb! Ticking time bomb. Because trust me, the message would not be intended and the reaction will certainly not be intended.

AI THREATENS HUMANITY THROUGH COMMUNICATION DAMAGE
AI and robotics will not replace humans physically, but MENTALLY!

Application of AI in other fields of human endeavors could prove very useful, but we need to be careful with its application in human communication. In short, its making us less than human! Let me explain again, this time.using ChatGPT as case study.

ChatGPT USE - A THREAT TO HUMANITY
ChatGPT came like a storm - an application of AI to a form of human communication- written words. Written words are important and critical aspect of human communication. Written communication comes in form of books, letters, typed messages, articles, guides, marketing messages, welcome messages, advertisements and many more. These are critical areas people and LAZILY applying ChatGPT AI now.
I am frightened because our communication is gradually losing its human emotions and originality and intentions.

Yes, AI and ChatGPT will get better over time. But it will.never be any way near the capability of our brains. Not in a billion years.

If we must preserve humanity, we must stop reliance on these tools to GENERATE OUR THOUGHTS.

We are only being lazy, I allege!

SOLUTION
It is absurd to rely on Artificial Intelligence to generate our inate thoughts and emotions. How would a machine know the actual words you wish to use? It can.only guess at best based on its limited.memory and preceding texts, as in the case of text Prediction feature.

MY RECOMMENDATION
The best human case use of AI in human interactions and communication should be restricted to messages transmission only.

Any form of message generation should be left to our human brains ONLY. But AI can help transmit by reading out text to speech accurately, or converting speech to text without any alterations.

This is the only way we can avert the dangers which lie ahead: years of years of eroding of humanity and communication that we all become
lazy and machine.now thinks and decides for us completely.

AVERT FUTURE TAKEOVER
Anyone who has been following my writings will remember that my articles are usually very emotion-filled and any human reader can relate.

I can't allow ChatGPT write this article for me because it cannot convey.my thoughts accurately the way it should be. Chatham not human feelings and can.never have them. AI is limited by its programming and limited available data.

THREATENED AREAS
Any endeavor of humanity that relies on communication- spoken or written- is threatened by adulteration by AI use, except when AI is used for on TRANSMISSION as recommended earlier.

Finance and Business
Business and Financial Transactions are, and must be conducted with accurate communication of information. Imagine a world where AI generates the information you use and the information do not originate from the actual client. Its chaos. And yes, any such.messgae will.not carry the emotions of the client. Its danger!

Medicine
We must be careful with communication of medical instances using AI generated means. Diagnosis while can be done relying on machine data, prescription and medical procedures are too sensitive to rely on artificial systems.

Books, Articles and Other Written Communications
My argument is the thought generating stage. Humans must be allowed to remain human. Articles generated by ChatGPT have flooded the internet thanks to lazy bloggers. Books written by AI are surfacing too. All.these threaten humanity because all Communications are actionable.

PARTING WORDS
Our brains are becoming lazier and fed with adulterated, machine-generated contents.

This is the real threat and danger of Artificial Intelligence to humanity. And the earlier we nip this in the bud the better.

Again, I recommend that we stop using AI to generate our thoughts. Once it is generated by ChatGPT, it is no.longer human thoughts. It is machine's. Any applications of such data in human.lives poses a threat to entire humanity. It makes us.less human.

Lets continue to promote originality of humanity.

Have a blessed day.

I like that term sir: LAZY BLOGGERS!

Only lazy bloggers use ChatGPT. Creative bloggers use their brains.

Ai has helped. But has left us to stop using our IQ.

Tell them oooo.

People are being fed garbage online these days.

We need an anti-AI movement.

Hi guys. In support of the topic, I did some research on AI errors, I realised that the innovators of AI are watering down gmdangers of errors of AI.

Instead of calling it mistakes, they termed it AI Hallucination.

Read. AI Hallucination can kill.

Thank you o
I think people needs to see this and learn from it so bad.!!!

Ai is good. Misapplication of AI tech is threat to humanity.

Lesson

Elon Musk has been and is still warning us about the dangers of Ai. It has it's advantages no doubt, but the rate at which it's dominating the world, i believe it will do more harm than good.

I hope we listen before we kill us all.

Yeah I agree with Jared

Thanks boss.

Fact remains that AI is good. In fact, Azà has an AI chatbot. We will deploy it fully this evening.

But letting machine compose our thoughts is my fear. I warn against it.

AI can and should be used to conduct research. To search for answers from big data.

But AI should not be allowed to write articles for life-impacting blog posts, books, emails etc.

Let humans be humans.

Our mistakes are what make us sweet.

I enjoyed this writeup abd did further research on my own. Here are some additional potential risks of increasing AI-human interaction and communication:

1. Diminished empathy, social skills, and human connections: Increasing reliance on AI-driven communication and interactions could lead to diminished empathy, social skills, and human connections. To preserve the essence of our social nature, we must strive to maintain a balance between technology and human interaction.

2. Manipulation and deception: AI tools like ChatGPT can sound so real that it has become impossible for people to distinguish between humans and machines in conversations, which poses huge risks for manipulation and deception at mass scale.

3. Unemployment: AI automation can lead to job losses, which can have a significant impact on society and the economy.
Misinformation and manipulation: AI systems are being used in the service of disinformation on the internet, giving them the potential to become a threat to democracy and a tool for fascism. From deepfake videos to online bots, AI can be used to spread misinformation and manipulate public opinion.

4. Data discrimination: AI systems can perpetuate and amplify existing biases and discrimination in society, leading to unfair treatment of certain groups.
No emotions: AI lacks emotions, which can make it difficult for humans to connect with and trust AI systems.

5. Lacking out-of-the-box thinking: AI is capable of learning over time with pre-fed data and past experiences, but cannot be creative in its approach. This can limit its ability to solve complex problems in unique ways.

6. Reduced human control over their lives: The use of AI can reduce individuals' control over their lives, leading to concerns about privacy, security, and autonomy.
Citizens will face increased vulnerabilities: As AI becomes more prevalent, citizens will face increased vulnerabilities, such as exposure to cybercrime and cyberwarfare that spin out of control and the possibility that essential organizations are endangered by weaponized information.

7. Wholesale destruction of humanity: A few experts worry about the wholesale destruction of humanity as AI becomes more advanced and powerful.

It's important to consider these potential risks and challenges associated with AI's widespread adoption and encourage awareness of issues to engage in conversations about AI's legal, ethical, and societal implications.
