Artificial Intelligence Revolution: This is why Universities are Reexaminig curriculums


Artificial Intelligence is slowly taking over given its ability to enhance efficiency in various operations. Increased automation, thanks to the machine learning technology, is gradually becoming a reality. Amidst the transformation, there have been concerns that the technology could render many people jobless. However, that appears not to be the case.
The synergies up for grabs with Artificial Intelligence are one of the reasons why institutions of higher learning are increasingly taking note of the technology. Programs designed to equip students with relevant skills pertaining to the machine learning technology are slowly cropping up, having become clear the kind of impact the technology is poised to have in the labor market.

Thanks to AI, 40-50% of the current jobs should be viable over the next 15 years, even with higher levels of automation. The technology is poised to have a significant impact on the way people, as well as machines, carry out operations in the labor market. This is in part because of an increase in computing power that is making it possible for AI-powered machines to carry out functions normally designated to humans. While AI will displace old jobs, it will also give rise to new jobs.
The availability of vast troves of data has made it possible to train machines leveraging artificial intelligence to achieve specific goals as well as tasks. Advancement in AI technology means there is a likelihood that AI-powered machines could in the future exceed human intelligence. There is also the probability of an emergence of a new form for AI that is well beyond human intelligence.
