Intellectual Merit

When someone brings up the term “artificial intelligence”, a variety of connotations tend to arise, connotations that often are unfair or unrepresentative of the true real-world applications of such a term. Due to the incidentally fear-mongering nature of the media, artificial intelligence can refer to something as basic as a robotic arm in a factory, as well as the implied extinction and/or enslavement of the human race as caused by robo-revolution. As of today, however, when applied in the world of modern technology, artificial intelligence is defined as any innovation that performs a task usually completed by humans. Of course, with this definition, artificial intelligence holds the potential for both societal harm and benefit, and its fate

The term “Artificial Intelligence or AI” is no longer an obscure term to us. Being surrounded by smart and intelligent devices in our everyday life has made us aware about this technical jargon called “Artificial Intelligence or AI”, which is used to refer to machine intelligence in the field of Computer Science. As artificial intelligence continues to progress, machines are becoming smarter and more efficient than human beings. So, people are getting more concerned and apprehensive regarding their jobs after witnessing their jobs being replaced by robots and machines. Artificial Intelligence replacing human jobs frequently gets media attention and it has been made a huge deal even though it is not. AI gradually taking all our jobs and destroying the economic system is just an absurd and exaggerated claim made by few media outlets and self-proclaimed tech pundits. On the contrary, AI has potential to help us to get better at our jobs and create more job opportunities in the long run.

In “Better Than Human,” Kevin Kelly, Senior Maverick of Wired Magazine, insists that automation will allow us to become more human. When society grants automation the permission to complete the most menial tasks, it will allow individuals trapped in dead-end careers such as fastening bolts onto cars, to search for their true passions which only humans can accomplish. More people will be able to pursue jobs that robots, for now, can not complete with ease. Kelly believes that as artificial intelligence and the creators of it advance, more jobs will be created to fulfill society's growing needs. The simple tasks of assembling new machinery can be completed by the already established automation; while the job of developing software that controls

What’s the first thing you think of when someone says, “Artificial Intelligence”? The Terminator? Perhaps the Matrix trilogy? Ever since the inception of the computer, science fiction has brought us scenes of super-intelligent computers who want to take over all of mankind. In reality, Artificial Intelligence is still in it’s infancy, and has done much more good for humans than bad. Over time, people’s perspective of AI has changed drastically. We have gone from thinking that AI will take over the world and obliterate mankind to thinking about all the benefits we can get from AI. The change in people’s perspective lately towards a more positive view of AI has boosted the production, sales, and advancement of home automation and AI, making

Wisconsin representative Mark Pocan once said “We know that to compete for the jobs of the 21st century and thrive in a global economy, we need a growing, skilled and educated workforce, particularly in the areas of science, technology, engineering and math. Americans with bachelor's degrees have half the unemployment rate of those with a high school degree.” Mark Pocan recognizes that the majority of unskilled jobs could soon be replaced by machines and robots. He was urging the people to focus their job paths on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) majors because that industry is creating the most jobs and giving great long term benefits. As technology develops, it starts to replace basic repetitive jobs that could be accomplished

Higher education is a $320 billion economic sector. New technology puts different jobs at risk.

When full-scale robotics and AI arrive in a broad-based, affordable, easily justifiable way, enormous waves of workers will be put out of work and ill prepared to take on very different jobs (Joerres, J 2016). The labor supply could become obsolete and both labor and companies like Kelly Services could be left scrambling unless they are prepared. Kelly Services is aware and has begun using some of this technology. Kelly Services appears to be on the cusp of this trend and including it as a strategy will make a

One of the biggest controversies with the advancement of artificial intelligence is the debate on job automation. Many people believe that artificial intelligence will advance to become better than humans and replace humans in most jobs. The opposite belief is that AI will be used to improve the standard of living and will be a tool to support humans, not replace them. Job automation has many benefits such as performing more dangerous jobs and complete tasks that humans do not desire to do. Even though job automation has benefits, there are many people who believe robots will take over the job market and the unemployment rate will skyrocket. There are multiple supporting factors for each side of the job automation debate, but the argument will never be settled until AI is further advanced and utilized.

By engaging in these transformational behaviors, leaders seek to motivate employees to look beyond their

Technology is going to disrupt the very nature of work in the next five to seven years, as it is beginning to today. Of the many global trends influencing and modifying careers over the next five to seven years, the major disruptions of social networks and the critical need for math and science skills will forever change the composition of the American and global workforce. As many futurists and pundits have long said, many of the more advanced economies are shifting quickly to service economies. As this shift occurs en masse in more advanced economies that have outsourced manufacturing, innovation will follow. This is not particularly good news for many of the advanced nations that have economies predicated on a relatively high per capita net income. Yet paradoxically this shift to service-based economies and lower salaries will isolate and make even greater the demand (and salaries) for professionals who have advanced skills in collaboration, distance learning, math, science and the ability to quickly accomplish complex tasks as part of a virtual team (Gajendran, Harrison, 2007).

As future scholars, we tend to hear a lot about Scientific Merit. But, that same old question might pop in our mines, which is should this learner even care or worry about scientific merit? We are told that without any scientific merit, that our research that we have worked so hard on cannot be considered a valid research without it, and if we are at the end part of our schooling/studies, and hope to receive an approval from the IRB for our research proposal, that will not happen if it is missing. Therefore, within this paper, we will discuss scientific merits, explain the dimensions of scientific merit, discuss the aspects of the study that was chosen for the Scientific Merit, and choose an area of scientific merit that we could have improved.

Referring to the recurrent fear of a potential mass unemployment due to implementation of technology in a labor market, a paper will start reviewing the main concept of artificial intelligence along with its current development. After examining the definition of computerization, the application of technologies to a workforce and its productivity level should be analyzed. A common economic implication of technology is that it creates an inverse relationship between productivity and employment levels. According to economic theory, one would anticipate employment levels to increase, due to increases in productivity of the workforce, but this has not been the case due to innovation and technology.

Artificial Intelligence is a topic within the public media that has existed for decades, but is now a concern due to the reality of human advancement and innovation in the field of science and technology. Many people believe that computers will become self-aware or sentient and view humanity as a disposable resource and gain supremacy. Reasoning that research on the technology should halt and not become more advance. Whereas others believe they will help catapult research and the economy forward, supporting the operations and innovations the technology offers. The complicated and divided solutions to the debate aren’t obvious, but there are more benefits to improving artificial intelligence than there is stopping it. Therefore, the negative effects people believe will occur can be resolved.

Most experts agree that Artificial Intelligence is on the increase in various fields. It has become one of the most controversial scientific issues of the twenty-first century. It raises the unemployment rate, workers will not find enough jobs for them and some of them may lose their work. As a result of technology, according to Wilson, Daugherty and Bianzino (2017), "The threat that automation will eliminate a broad swath of jobs across the world economy is now well established. As Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems become ever more

LCurrent technology-driven innovations in service systems tend to take the human server out of the loop. That being the case, the substitution of human labor will potentially affect the United States and other developed economies most, as the service sector in these countries is responsible for the majority of employment. To improve this outlook, effective ways of integrating humans with engineered service systems is needed. Instead of replacing human workers with machines, one could think of an engineered partnership between both agents. For example, the necessary improvements in the healthcare and education sectors will use people to do what people do best (e.g. creativity, synthesis, improvisation, social skills), and machines to do
