Midterm - Grand Challenge:
For this Forbes article, the author instructed us on how to use these AI for problem-solving. We should prototype every AI before commercialize it to see if it will work or not and also to ensure a safe environment. Then we should use AI for works that can afford to be a mistake so it won't leave a negative impact on the customer experience. And lastly, we should use AI to solve specific problems, not the entire system, because tackling specific problems is often more efficient and productive in the long run.

https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2018/02/what-impact-will-automation-have-on-society-four-scenarios
In this article, the author has suggested many different hypotheses that could happen in the age of automaton. There could be a balance between automation and technological boundaries. For example, since the cost of an automaton is going to be very high, and it will be difficult to deal with new and unexpected problems during work, it is still better to have human labor. The second hypothesis is about irrational automation behavior and external limitations. In this case, people might not want to fully use all of these functions of the automaton due to cultural and social interference, even though we would be able to fully automate most tasks. The third idea is about ubiquitous and planned automation. This scenario will ensure the best options for our future and people will have to focus on inter-human connections and create an experience-based economy, where cooking, nursing care, handicraft and other ‘human experiences’ might be valued the most. The last hypothesis is called rapid full automaton, which is quite similar to Capitalism. This scenario would, however, focus on financial gains of a small powerful minority, leading to more inequality.
