Is artificial intelligence going to control our lives?

Humanity is at crossroads with technology like never before. We are flooded with expert opinions saying AI will take over everything humans do, like a Frankenstein creation. But do people bother?

As of now, except those in corporate sector, are not willing to believe the theory of AI invasion. When you look at social media handles it says people have welcomed the latest technology with open arms. People are coming out in force with their creative ideas, theories, hidden talents and even making money out of silly videos and reels across the world.

This is how AI is being used for entertainment purpose, which in turn generates some income for the users. For them, AI is just another technological invasion. At the same time, large organisations running at losses, or looking for ways to make more profit, have already adopted AI tools. As a result, massive layoffs have started in several firms which are eager to utilise AI for their benefits.

What I am trying to say is, the fear over AI as well as over-dependency on it, is natural phenomenon. Technology will keep on updating. Just get along with it is what we can do. The scaremongers are doing their job: to market the products and generate a fear among the people so that everyone will embrace AI.
