Transforming The World – ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE



Artificial Intelligence (AI), is a turning point in the field of technology, is transforming the world and the way we live immensely.

So, the first question that comes to mind,

What is Artificial Intelligence?


Artificial Intelligence is one the most trending topics. Schools in Dehradun include Artificial Intelligence as a part of their syllabus in order to prepare students for future.


Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the duplication of human intelligence in the machine, mainly computer systems. It is programmed to think like a human mind and imitates their actions. Alexa, Siri, etc. are all examples of artificial intelligence.


Most of the girls boarding schools in Dehradun spread awareness about Artificial Intelligence to make their students ready for upcoming challenges in the field of Information Technology.


Today, AI is used in multiple fields and industries, including virtual assistant or chatbots, agriculture, fashion, security, and many more. AI is automating everything, providing more accurate and efficient performance.

How is AI used in different fields?

Virtual Assistance – When we interact with a virtual assistant, AI uses modern algorithms to learn from data entered and predict our needs.

Agriculture – AI enables recognizing problems such as diseases and poor nutrition in plants & overcoming them.

Fashion – AI proves to be helpful in the fashion industry by providing insights into fashion trends and purchase patterns.

Security – AI helps in identifying and stopping cyber threats through an automated approach.

Artificial Intelligence is a fascinating advancement in technological development. It has a lot of benefits but consists of some risks as well.

What are the benefits of Artificial Intelligence?

  • Reduced errors – The use of AI has helped to limit errors. AI is a much developed and modern approach for doing thigs, and therefore, it rarely causes any mistake or error. It reduces the chances of error and mistakes in the work and increases the way of doing the work.

  • Availability – Unlike humans, AI’s service is available 24/7. AI can be accessed by any firm with an installed AI setup. It can be accessed at any time, depending upon the need and urgency of the situation. Therefore, it acts as a more handy and reliable source as it provides non-stop service and is available on a wide scale. 

  • Removing monotony – AI makes tedious and repetitive jobs interesting and easy to handle. As the technical pieces of equipment perform a large scale and wide range of service, they do not involve any kind of boredom or monotony in work. Many repetitive works in a workplace may cause monotony among human workers, but, it can be solved with the help of AI.

  • Assistance – AI assists in handling complex machines as well as our day to day jobs. One can find great assistance by taking the help of Artificial intelligence. It is one of the most effective and useful benefits of AI.

  • Implementation of daily activities – Most of the applications that we use in our daily life includes some kind of artificial intelligence. Applications like Siri, Google Voice Assistance, Bots, are the examples of AI that we use in our daily lives.

  • Speedy process – Unlike humans, AI can give quick decisions and perform tasks much faster. Therefore tasks that require speedy process and where quick decisions use AI.


What are the risks of Artificial Intelligence?

Unemployment – Due to the increasing automation, there is a huge increase in the loss of job opportunities.

Bias – Bad data can lead to algorithmic bias.

Privacy threat – AI algorithms can use sensitive information about the users without them even realizing it. Artificial Intelligence can be used to steal personal information and therefore act as a security threat.

A threat to mankind – AI has a lot of power to affect mankind. Therefore, if not used properly, it can harm mankind.


I would like to conclude in the words of Edna Ferber,

“Perhaps too much of everything is as bad as too little.”
