AI is Coming! (and is already here!) Artificial Intelligence is Reviewed

Today, we’re diving into a topic that’s buzzing everywhere these days — Artificial Intelligence, or AI. It might sound complicated, but by the end of this episode, you’ll see it’s not only approachable, it could actually make your life simpler, safer, and more enjoyable. From smart assistants that help you around the house to apps that keep your brain active, AI is already here — and it’s designed to help people of all ages, including seniors and retirees. So, let’s get started!” I’ve also added a few 10 second short videos created with AI featuring yours truly so that you can see some of the lighter side of this fast approaching technology. ________________________________________ “First things first — what exactly is AI? Artificial Intelligence is technology that can perform tasks that usually require human thinking. That means understanding language, recognizing images, making decisions, or even learning from experience. “AI isn’t just for tech companies — it’s changing daily life for seniors in big ways: 1. Health & Wellness: AI helps monitor vital signs, detect changes in health, and remind you to take medications. Devices like smartwatches or home sensors can alert you — or your family — if something seems off. 2. Staying Connected: Video calls, translation apps, and even AI chatbots make it easier to keep in touch with family and friends, no matter the distance 3. Safety at Home: Smart home devices powered by AI can turn lights on and off, detect unusual movement, or even call for help if you fall. 4. Learning & Entertainment: AI can recommend books, music, and hobbies based on your interests. Some apps even provide brain games to keep your mind sharp.” “So you see, AI is less about replacing people and more about helping people — especially seniors — live safer, healthier, and more connected lives.” ________________________________________ “Remember, AI is here to assist, not replace your judgment.” ________________________________________ “AI is evolving fast. In the next few years, we may see: Healthcare powered by AI such as • Enhanced Diagnostics: AI algorithms can analyze medical images (like X-rays and MRIs) and complex patient data with high accuracy, leading to earlier and more precise disease detection than human doctors alone. • Personalized Treatment: AI can analyze genetic data and medical history to create highly personalized treatment plans and assist in the discovery and development of new, more effective medications. • Robot-Assisted Surgery: Robots and AI are becoming standard in complex procedures, offering greater precision and minimizing invasiveness. • Predictive Health: AI will be able to anticipate when a person is most likely to develop a chronic disease and suggest preventative interventions. • More social robots to combat loneliness. I was just watching a 60 minutes episode on robots and its incredible the advancements that have taken place in just a few years. Possible changes to Work & The Economy might be: • Automation of Routine Tasks: Repetitive jobs in areas like data entry, customer service (via advanced chatbots), bookkeeping, and warehouse work are increasingly being automated, leading to massive increases in productivity and efficiency. • Augmentation of Creative and Professional Roles: For many roles, AI acts as an assistant, taking over time-consuming tasks like research, drafting, and analysis. This allows humans to focus on creativity, strategy, and complex decision-making. • Creation of New Jobs: While some jobs are lost, a high demand for new roles is emerging, such as machine learning specialists, AI ethics officers, data scientists, and prompt engineers. • Redefining Work: Some experts predict a future where work becomes optional for most people due to widespread automation by AI and robotics. Alongside the benefits, AI presents significant challenges: • Job Displacement: The speed of automation could lead to societal upheaval if new job opportunities and upskilling efforts don't keep pace. • Ethics and Bias: AI models are trained on vast datasets, and if this data contains societal biases, the AI can perpetuate and amplify them, leading to unfair outcomes in areas like hiring or loan applications. • Data Privacy and Security: The immense amount of data required to train powerful AI models raises major concerns about personal data privacy and the potential for misuse. • Regulation and Trust: Governments are grappling with how to regulate AI, particularly generative AI (AI designed to produce output previously done by humans), to address issues like deepfakes, intellectual property rights, and the need for transparency. Until some of the challenges are worked out its hard to say how quickly things will progress. But right now they appear advancing rapidly. The key takeaway? You don’t have to be a tech expert to benefit from AI. By adopting even a few tools today, you can make life safer, more convenient, and even more enjoyable.”
