Is Artificial Intelligence Dangerous? 6 AI Risks Everyone Should Know AboutBernard Marr
Discussions about artificial intelligence often focus on its positive impacts for society while disregarding the more difficult and less-popular idea that AI could also potentially be dangerous. Just like any powerful tool, AI can be used for good and bad. Here are a few AI risks everyone should know about.
What is AI and how it works? What is early history of AI. what are risks and benefits of AI? Current status and future of AI. General perceptions about AI. Achievement of AI. Will AI be more beneficent or more destructive?
The rise of AI now seems inevitable with many experts stating the invention of smart machines will be the biggest ever impact on humanity. Robot rebellions have been a major theme throughout science fiction for many decades, and we need precautionary measures to ensure future superintelligent machines remain under human control.
Know Everything About Artificial Intelligence
AI involves machine learning, deep learning and many other programmable capabilities.
Let’s know all about the AI.
What is AI:
AI is intelligence exhibited by machines AI systems seek to process or respond to data in human-like ways.
AI can be seen at:
1. Marketing- Here AI analyze buyer’s behavior and provide best products & deals to them.
2. Predictive systems- These AI are made to look at statistical data and form valuable conclusions.
3. Editing Softwares- Here AIs suggest the ways that can be used to make pictures and texts more attractive.
4. Research- Research AI search through complex documents and studies for specific information at the speed higher than Google’s search engine.
How safe are they:
• Artificial intelligence right now don’t have ability to make truly independent decisions
• They can’t do anything beyond the instructions provided to them
• But, the predictions through AI can be inaccurate & that can be dangerous
Future of AI:
• We can see the rapid adoption of AI tricks in every field of tech.
• Once quantum computers become more viable, AIs will have access to unprecedented processing power and human-like AIs will become more viable.
• There are various apps & softwares that can be improved with the help of AI

Lee Rainie will present findings from Pew Research Center’s report titled "The Internet of Things Will Thrive by 2025" to the American Bar Association Section of Science & Technology law on March 30, 2016. The report presents the views of hundreds of “technology builders and analysts” on the question of whether Internet of Things will have widespread and beneficial effects on the everyday lives of the public.
Lee Rainie discussed an extensive roster of expert predictions about the internet in the coming decade. He discussed what happens to people’s behavior when the internet is everywhere, how new social and cultural divides will emerge, how deeply education will be disrupted, and how a different mix of companies will influence the Internet.
Presented by Lee Rainie
An overview of the extensive roster of expert predictions about the coming decade that the Pew Internet Project recently gathered. Among other things, this keynote covers what happens to people’s behavior when the Internet is everywhere, how new social and cultural divides will emerge, how deeply education will be disrupted, and how a different mix of companies will influence the Internet.
Evolution of Social Media and its effects on Knowledge OrganisationCollabor8now Ltd
There has been a lot of hype around social media, social networks and social business, much of it unhelpful in understanding what this is all about. For some people, “social” will always mean frivolity and time wasting. For others, social media just means marketing and communications.
The evolution of social media over the past several years has made it easier than ever before to find, connect and engage with “experts” and people with similar interests. Enlightened organisations have recognised that investment in social technologies and (most importantly) the organisational change required in order to nurture and embed a collaborative culture, can overcome the limitations of silo’d structures that have traditionally inhibited information flows and opportunities for innovation.
In a broader context, the pervasive and ubiquitous availability of social media in almost all aspects of daily life, from the way we communicate, get information, buy and sell, travel, live and learn is adding to the pressure on organisations to provide a more porous interface between internal (behind the firewall) and external services. Knowledge workers are increasingly making their own decisions on what tools, products and services that they need to work more effectively and will become increasingly disaffected if these are not available within the work environment.
This presentation looks at industry trends on how social media and social technologies are changing the way that we generate, organise and consume knowledge, and how this is driving emergent digital literacies for knowledge workers.
Lee Rainie, director of Internet, Science and Technology Research at the Pew Research Center, spoke on May 10, 2017 to the American Bar Association’s Section of Science and Technology Law about the rise of the Internet of Things and its implications for privacy and cybersecurity. The velocity of change today is remarkable and increasingly challenging to navigate. Rainie discussed Pew Research Center’s reports about “Digital Life in 2025” and “The Internet of Things Will Thrive by 2025,” which present the views of hundreds of “technology builders and analysts” on the future of the internet. He also highlighted the implications of the Center’s reports on “Americans and Cybersecurity” and “What the Public Knows about Cybersecurity.”
Many experts say the rise of embedded and wearable computing will bring the next revolution in digital technology. They say the upsides are enhanced health, convenience, productivity, safety, and more useful information for people/organizations. The downsides: challenges to personal privacy, over-hyped expectations, and boggling tech complexity. Lee Rainie shares the latest research from Pew about libraries and puts it into context with the expanding Internet of Things.

FUTURE OF COMPUTER ETHICSComputers and the transformations.docxbudbarber38650
FUTURE OF COMPUTER ETHICS
Computers and the transformations they engender have only recently entered into most people’s lives. Large mainframes used by the government and businesses made their debut only 60 years ago, and the personal computer began appearing in small businesses and homes as recently as the early 1980s. While the precursor of the Internet was created almost 40 years ago, widespread use of the Internet and the creation of the World Wide Web occurred during the past fifteen years. The field of computer ethics has been developed to address ethical problems arising from new technologies. While accurately predicting the direction of such ethical considerations in the future is impossible, some general speculations can be made on emerging trends.
New Computer Ethics Laws
Legislation is often slow to catch up to the reality of everyday life. Eventually it does catch up and this will prove true for many of the computer ethics issues we face today. For example, many attempts have already been made in the United States to draft laws increasing personal privacy protection.
Artificial Intelligence and Avatars
The first generation of avatars, digital representations that look and talk like ordinary people, has already appeared. Given the rapid advances in technological capabilities and artificial intelligence, predicting that avatars in the future will be indistinguishable from real human beings is not farfetched. This eventuality will pose a rash of ethical dilemmas. For example, should computer users necessarily be warned that they are dealing with an avatar and not a human being? Should avatars be prevented from emulating certain behaviors? In what ways might avatars be used by some for criminal activities, and how can such behavior be prevented? These are just a few of the numerous ethical questions arising from future developments in artificial intelligence.
Self-Replicating Robots
We already know that robots can be created that, in turn, create other robots. Such self-replication of technology has great potential to get out of hand, and it thus poses numerous ethical concerns. For instance, have we created a technology that might someday displace, dominate, or even eliminate human beings? How can we know? These are some of the ethical questions concerning robots that will be debated in the future.
Narrowing the Digital Divide
While the digital divide between developed countries is narrowing, the gulf between developed and underdeveloped nations is still vast. Debate over how this gap is to be narrowed will continue. Should poorer nations be encouraged to concentrate on gaining basic needs, such as adequate electricity, communications, and health care infrastructures, or should they be encouraged to use available resources to develop digital technologies in order to “catch up” with developed nations? Will computer technologies truly benefit less developed societies and, if so, how? What role should developed nations play in providing.
Lee Rainie, Director of Internet and Technology Research at the Pew Research Center, presented this material on October 29, 2020 to scholars, policy makers and civil society advocates convened by New York University’s Governance Lab (GovLab). He described findings from two canvassings of hundreds of technology and democracy experts that captured their views about the future of democracy and the future of social and civic innovation by the year 2030. Among other subjects, the experts looked at the impact of misinformation, “techlash” and trust in government institutions.
The 10 Megatrends of 2022 are the global list of topics that our experts consider will change technology, business models, and society in the medium term. These Megatrends aim to anticipate the answers to the main questions about the future and help us steer our actions and strategies.

Lee Rainie, Director of Internet and Technology Research at the Pew Research Center, presented this material on October 14, 2020 at a gathering sponsored by the International Institute of Communications. He described the most recent Center public opinion surveys since mid-March, covering the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, racial justice protests that began in the summer, and the final stages of the 2020 presidential election campaign. He particularly examined how and why people are using the internet in the midst of multiple national crises and their concerns about digital divide and homework gap issues. And he covered how the Center has researched the impact of misinformation in recent years.
Lee Rainie, director of internet and technology research, presented a synthesis of the Pew Research Center’s growing explorations of issues related to trust, facts and democracy at a forum hosted by the International Institute of Communications on December 5, 2018. His presentation covered Center findings related to declining trust in institutions, increasing challenges tied to misinformation and the ways in which concerns about trust and truth are linked to public attitudes about democracy.
Lee Rainie, Director of Internet and Technology research, spoke about the skills requirements for jobs in the future at the International Telecommunications Union’s “capacity building symposium” for digital technologies. He discussed the changing structure of jobs and the broad labor force and the attitudes of Americans about the likely changes that robots, artificial intelligence (AI) and other advances in digital life will create in workplaces. The session took place in Santo Domingo on June 18, 2018.
Lee Rainie, director of internet and technology research at Pew Research Center, discussed recent findings about the prevalence and impact of online harassment at the Cyber Health and Safety Virtual Summit: 41% of American adults have been harassed online and 66% have witnessed harassment. The findings come from the Center’s recent report on these issues.
Lee Rainie, director of internet and technology research at Pew Research Center, presented these findings at the International Monetary Fund/World Bank’s Youth Dialogue and its program, “A World Without Work?” The findings tie to several pieces of research at the Center, including reports on the state of American jobs, automation in everyday life, and the future of jobs training programs.
Lee Rainie, director of Internet, Science and Technology research at the Pew Research Center, described the Center’s research about public views related to facts and trust after the 2016 election at UPCEA's “Summit on Online Leadership.” He explored how education is affected as students face challenges finding and using knowledge. In addition, he covered the Center’s latest research about how ubiquitous technology shapes the new information landscape for students.
Lee Rainie, director of Internet, Science and Technology research at the Pew Research Center, discussed the Center's latest findings at the Mid-Atlantic Marketing Summit in Washington. He talked about how people use social media, how they think about news in the Trump Era, how they try to establish and act on trust and where they turn for expertise in a period where so much information is contested.
Lee Rainie, director of Internet, Science and Technology research at the Pew Research Center, discussed his group’s latest findings about the role of libraries and librarians on April 3 at Innovative Users Group conference. The latest work shows that many people struggle to find the most trustworthy information and they express a clear hope that librarians can help them. He explored recent research about how people are becoming “lifelong learners” and that library services are an element of how they hope to stay relevant in their jobs, as well as find ways to enrich their lives. He drew on Pew Research Center studies about the information and media sources people use and how they decide what to trust.
Lee Rainie, director of Internet, Science and Technology research at the Pew Research Center, presented at the Computers in Libraries 2017 conference on March 30 new findings about how people have shifted to the mindset of lifelong learners and the implications of that for librarians. He discussed how people’s disposition towards information and knowledge – are they engaged or are they wary? – shapes how they use library resources. He also discussed future technology trends and how librarians will have to adjust to them.
Lee Rainie, director of internet, science and technology research at Pew Research Center, gave this speech at Flagler College in St. Augustine, Florida on Feb. 16, 2017, about the new age of politics and media. He described what Donald Trump's campaign and the dawn of the Trump presidency have taught us about the historic shifts in politics and media that have occurred in the last generation.
Lee Rainie, director of Internet, Science and Technology research at the Pew Research Center, discussed the Center’s latest findings on digital divides based a survey conducted from Sept. 29 to Nov. 6, 2016. The presentation was to the board of Feeding America. Rainie looked at differences tied to internet access, home broadband ownership, and smartphone ownership by several demographic measures, including household income, educational attainment, race and ethnicity, age, and community type. He also discussed the Center’s research related to “digital readiness gaps” among technology users.
Lee Rainie, Director of Internet, Science, and Technology research at the Pew Research Center, presented this material on December 12, 2016 to a working group at the National Academy of Sciences. The group is exploring how to think about creating an academic discipline around "data science."
Lee Rainie, director of Internet, Science and Technology research at the Pew Research Center, presented the Center’s latest findings about the use of digital technology and its future at the Federal Reserve Board’s Editors and Designers conference in Philadelphia on October 6, 2016. During the keynote he discussed the impact of social media, collaboration, and future trends in technology with a special focus on the issues tied to security and reputational risk that face the Federal Reserve System. He described how the Center’s research can help communicators:
-Disseminate their messages across multiple digital and traditional media channels
-Engage their audience and encourage amateur evangelism
-Assess the impact of their outreach and observe challenges to their material
-Think like long a long-tail organization that also has real-time immediacy
Lee Rainie, director of Internet, Science and Technology Research at the Pew Research Center will cover the latest findings of the center’s public opinion polling about Americans use of libraries and their feelings about the role that libraries play in their lives and in their communities at the American Library Association Conference in Orlando. The new findings will cover the latest library-usage trends, book-reading trends, and insights into the ways more and more Americans hope libraries will offer community-oriented and educational services.

# Internet Security: Safeguarding Your Digital World
In the contemporary digital age, the internet is a cornerstone of our daily lives. It connects us to vast amounts of information, provides platforms for communication, enables commerce, and offers endless entertainment. However, with these conveniences come significant security challenges. Internet security is essential to protect our digital identities, sensitive data, and overall online experience. This comprehensive guide explores the multifaceted world of internet security, providing insights into its importance, common threats, and effective strategies to safeguard your digital world.
## Understanding Internet Security
Internet security encompasses the measures and protocols used to protect information, devices, and networks from unauthorized access, attacks, and damage. It involves a wide range of practices designed to safeguard data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Effective internet security is crucial for individuals, businesses, and governments alike, as cyber threats continue to evolve in complexity and scale.
### Key Components of Internet Security
1. **Confidentiality**: Ensuring that information is accessible only to those authorized to access it.
2. **Integrity**: Protecting information from being altered or tampered with by unauthorized parties.
3. **Availability**: Ensuring that authorized users have reliable access to information and resources when needed.
## Common Internet Security Threats
Cyber threats are numerous and constantly evolving. Understanding these threats is the first step in protecting against them. Some of the most common internet security threats include:
### Malware
Malware, or malicious software, is designed to harm, exploit, or otherwise compromise a device, network, or service. Common types of malware include:
- **Viruses**: Programs that attach themselves to legitimate software and replicate, spreading to other programs and files.
- **Worms**: Standalone malware that replicates itself to spread to other computers.
- **Trojan Horses**: Malicious software disguised as legitimate software.
- **Ransomware**: Malware that encrypts a user's files and demands a ransom for the decryption key.
- **Spyware**: Software that secretly monitors and collects user information.
### Phishing
Phishing is a social engineering attack that aims to steal sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details. Attackers often masquerade as trusted entities in email or other communication channels, tricking victims into providing their information.
### Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) Attacks
MitM attacks occur when an attacker intercepts and potentially alters communication between two parties without their knowledge. This can lead to the unauthorized acquisition of sensitive information.
### Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Attacks

7. There will be a global, immersive, ambient networked computing
environment built through the continued proliferation of smart
sensors/dust, cameras, software, databases, and massive data
centers.
8. There will be real and virtual enhancements to much of human
activity, including cognition. Artificial intelligence will be
ubiquitous and people will exploit it through the use of portable /
wearable / implantable technologies and autonomous tools like
drones and driverless vehicles.
9. Social and business encounters will be shaped by virtual
reality and telepresence. Interfaces with data and objects
will change and become easier. Speech/gesture
interaction will matter more. Rich, immersive
experiences will proliferate
11. Theme 1
Information sharing over the Internet will be effortlessly interwoven
into daily life making us smarter, safer, more efficient.
‘Computication’ involving ‘smart agents’ will be commonplace
and that will advance productivity and enhance leisure.
12. Theme 2
Artificial intelligence, augmented reality, wearable devices, and
big data will make people more aware of their world and their
own behavior – which will especially aid in health care.
13. Theme 3
The environment and structures themselves will become
‘intelligent’ and expand our knowledge about them – plus,
enable their own ‘maintenance’ and ‘repairs.’

15. Theme 1
Privacy will be more at risk and something perhaps only
the privileged will enjoy.
16. Theme 2
The nature of work will change in unprecedented ways as robots
and artificial intelligence assume greater roles in job functions.
17. Self-driving cars, intelligent digital agents that can act for
you, and robots are advancing rapidly. Will networked,
automated, artificial intelligence (AI) applications and
robotic devices have displaced more jobs than they have
created by 2025?
52% - more jobs created than destroyed
48% - more jobs displaced than created
18. In the next 10 years, do you think we will see the emergence
of new educational and training programs that can
successfully train large numbers of workers in the skills
they will need to perform the jobs of the future?
70% - “yes”
30% - “no”
19. Theme 3
Dangerous divides between haves and have-nots may expand,
resulting in resentment and possible violence.

changing. Those pursuing crime, laziness, bullying, stalking,
stupidity, pornography, and dirty tricks have new capacity to make
life miserable for others.
21. Theme 5
Humans and their organizations may not respond quickly enough
to challenges presented by complex networks.
22. “Laws and institutions must go
hand in hand with the progress
of the human mind. As that
becomes more developed, more
enlightened, as new discoveries
are made, new truths disclosed,
and manners and opinions
change with the change of
circumstances, institutions must
advance also, and keep pace
with the times.”
---- Thomas Jefferson (date tk)
