Science and technology are one of the most renowned and prominent fields in the modern era.

Technology refers to the practical application of scientific knowledge, while science is the

methodical study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world via

experimentation and observation. Additionally, a change is being sparked in several industries,

including medicine, agriculture, education, information technology, entertainment, sports, and

numerous others as a result of the growth of science and technology. Technological

advancements through scientific research play a vital part in recent times. Every aspect of our

lives, from booking a cab or train/flight ticket to curing diseases like cancer, depends on science

and technology.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the technology I like based on my subject of interest. The capacity

of a digital computer or computer-controlled robot to accomplish activities often linked with

intelligent individuals is referred to as artificial intelligence (AI). The phrase is widely given to

the endeavor of producing technologies and algorithms with human-like cognitive processes,

such as the ability to reason, discover meaning, generalize, or learn from prior experience. New

technologies promote greater performance in all industrial sectors. Among the most essential

novel ideas is artificial intelligence (AI). Intelligence may be measured and defined. AI science

has produced multiple notable breakthroughs and is being employed in various sectors and

businesses. AI has mostly supplanted many earlier systems, such as the Mark-I and II, which

were slower and required far more human surveillance. Artificial intelligence is widely

employed in sophisticated military operations, scientific research, engineering software, weather

forecasting, healthcare space technology, and laboratories. AI will have a significant influence

on enterprises and work opportunities, leading to highly networked organizations with judgment
based on the analysis and usage of data, as well as increased worldwide competitiveness between

companies.

Users will be able to utilize the Internet to buy products and services from anywhere in the globe,

as well as reap the endless special perks that will be made available by the broad use of AI

creations (Makridakis, S. 2017).

AI has enormous potential to change how healthcare is delivered in areas with limited resources.

AI and other supplementary developing technologies might be used to circumvent many

healthcare system obstacles in such environments. The creation of AI tools suited for resource-

limited environments will benefit from further research and funding, which will hasten the

realization of AI's maximum capabilities for enhancing global healthcare (Wahl, B, Cossy-

Gantner, A et al. 2018). Consumers can examine the effects of various artificial intelligence

capabilities on travel agencies in the following areas. Financial advantages and Net benefits

include utilizing robots with artificial intelligence may lead to economic growth and several

other advantages. Robotic systems or artificial intelligence systems can operate around the clock.

Businesses can cut expenditures because of their low mistake rate. AI systems are frequently in

their early stages, but there are several instances of potential technologies that foretell how AI

may alter education. In school, AI may expedite individualized learning and assist kids with

particular needs. Possible system-level applications include advanced analytics to decrease

dropout and assess new skill sets. AI and digitization have also resulted in a new need for

complicated abilities that are more difficult to automate, for instance, higher thinking abilities

like imagination and critical thinking. (Vincent-Lancrin, S., and R. Van Der Vlies, 2020).

Aside from the benefits, we must also address the dangers related to unintended abuse or

intentional abuse of AI technology, which can be rooted in mismatched motives, avarice, hostile
politics, or malevolent intentions. The harmful use of AI technology has the potential to expedite

or intensify anything from email scams to full-scale cyber-warfare. And fresh horrors may be

created. The prospect of societal development offered by the aforementioned opportunities must

be balanced against the threats of AI that will permit or increase evil influence. However, there is

a significant danger that AI will be underutilized due to concerns of exploitation (Floridi, L.,

Cowls, J. 2018). Multiple benefits of artificial intelligence have indeed been discovered,

including improved medical performance, identifying at-risk patients, evaluation of the amount

of medication contact, and analysis operations in the finance and banking industries. It has also

been utilized to decrease the chance of losses, improve product quality, and protect the lives of

employees. Resource extraction firms utilize both human and artificial intelligence to develop

trucks and machinery that can function underground without human intervention, as well as to

predict possible issues and suggest safe solutions to limit the likelihood of injury (Nadimpalli, M.

2017)

Specific concerns for the work future coming from the deployment of AI technologies are also

discussed, including job displacement from automation and the control of human-machine

relations. By engaging in strategic foresight regarding AI employment uses, professional

experiential learning will transition from a reactive to a strategic view. Recognizing the potential

and difficulties of AI for the future of the workplace will aid in mitigating the negative

consequences of AI on workers' rights and protection, healthcare, and well-being (J. Howard.

2019). AI solution for aging office employees' job-ability endurance, combining inconspicuous

detection and modeling of worker status with a suite of unique services for context and worker-

aware adaptive work assistance. The system promptly gives individualized advice to its users, so

increasing the safety, well-being, and productivity of port and manufacturing workers. The use of
AI-based systems to track employees' health and avoid accidents has several advantages. These

initiatives' digital tools and services might pave the way and serve as model scenarios for

comparable commercial initiatives on the management of both older and younger employees

working remotely. These are AI-powered tools that deliver benefits to the debate while also

posing new and different problems. (Dantas, C., Mackiewicz, K. 2021)
