Will AI Surpass Human Intelligence?

Will artificial intelligence someday surpass human intelligence? I do believe that artificial intelligence will someday will be just as intelligent as their human creators. I believe this to be true because of our already growing dependence on technology. From our constant hold on our smartphones and how at all times we are streaming data straight to our favorite electronics. We are hardly ever without these new forms of technology, and it’s because they make our lives easier. So what would stop us from developing a higher form of artificial intelligence if it could potentially make our lives even easier? These newly developed forms of artificial intelligence could help us in all aspects of our lives. Aspects like driving our cars without the guidance of a human, constructing buildings, manufacturing large quantities of products, taking the place of humans on the battlefield, home security, and various odd jobs. They could even help with entertaining us, for instance in the movie Real Steel, robot fighting. That would be a game changer. But with all of these new robots taking control of the more tedious and strenuous tasks this might make the human species less active and more dependent on technology, it will help us with refocusing our time to more important matter that would better help the world. A rise of these innovations are already becoming a reality in our society, for instant Google has been working on developing a car that utilizes Google Maps to drive and navigate a car. So these forms of artificial intelligence are already, in a way, are already present in our daily lives. Maybe in a near future, we will have fully autonomous robots that will be capable of giving us protection. An example of personal security provided by robots could be close to what we are able to see in the movie IRobot. As we have multiple different robotic companies producing new ground breaking developments, I don’t see why our society would not have the majority of these new forms of artificial intelligence in the next twenty years. I look forward to seeing robots being present in our daily lives, not only will they provide our society with additional help, but they can further provide our citizens with security. Regardless of artificial intelligence becoming smarter than human intelligence, as long as the robots do not come to a conclusion that we are no longer needed, I think the human race will be just fine.
