The alarmist headlines emphasize theloss of jobs to machines, but the real challenge is for humans to find their passion with new responsibilities thatrequire their uniquely human abilities. According to PwC, 7 million existing jobs will be replaced by AI in theUK from 2017-2037, but 7.2 million jobs could be created. This uncertainty and the changes to how some willmake a living could be challenging. The transformative impact of artificial intelligence on our society will havefar-reaching economic, legal, political, and regulatory implications that we need to be discussing and preparingfor. Determining who is at fault if an autonomous vehicle hurts a pedestrian or how to manage a globalautonomous arms race are just a couple of examples of the challenges to be faced.Will machines become super-intelligent and will humans eventually lose control? While there isdebate about how likely this scenario will be, we do know that there are always unforeseen consequenceswhen new technology is introduced. Those unintended outcomes of artificial intelligence will likelychallenge us all. Another issue is ensuring that AI doesn't become so proficient at doing the job it wasdesigned to do that it crosses over ethical or legal boundaries. While the original intent and goal of the AIis to benefit humanity, if it chooses to go about achieving the desired goal in a destructive (yet efficientway) it would negatively impact society. The AI algorithms must be built to align with the overarchinggoals of humans. Artificial intelligence algorithms are powered by data. As more and more data iscollected about every single minute of every person's day, our privacy gets compromised. If businessesand governments decide to make decisions based on the intelligence they gather about you like China isdoing with its social credit system, it could evolve into social oppression.
