Online reflection 2

As I f**k up the last online reflection, Im going to do that one now instead. 

Think of one aspect of daily life that you think/hope will change in a) 1-5 years b) 6-50 years. 

I'm going to write about A.I (artificiell intelligens)

a) In the next few years I don't see to much change for us. But it will come, as we now are using it for e.g computer/video games, but what we will use it to beyond that could be anything. New smart devices are made up every day and soon it will start to change our behaviors and thinking. As we will start to depend more and more on this smart devices.

b) There is 2 different scenarios that could happen. Ethier we have a world filled with smart machine that will do everthing for us. Like drive our cars, makes us food when we are hungry or help us with what ever everyday task we need help with. A utopia with smart devices and robots. This wil probably take more towards the 50 yeat spectrum.
On the complett opposite we have more of an apocalyps world, Where machines have taken over the word. As they grow smarter they will eventully be smart enough to take control over us all. If we just look at recent events as DeepMind AlhaGo vs Lee Sedol (where the AI won of course) and Tay (a AI program that turned in to a Nazi in less than 24 hours), means that today AI is already preety scary, but as long as we (as humans) have the power to turn them off (as Microsoft did to Tay) we are fine. But what happens when they go beyond that? Will we be in a utopia or will we be in a war against the machine and threaten to be completely wiped out?
