Humans’ relationships with computers are going to evolve significantly — particularly because of advances in artificial intelligence technology, says Subbarao Kambhampati, Fulton Schools professor of computer science. Advances in “natural interaction modalities” mean human-computer and human-robot connections will have a big role in shaping modern reality, writes Kambhampati, the chief AI officer of the AI Foundation, which focuses on responsible development of AI technologies. He says the next decade will be a test of how we learn to balance the positive aspects of that new reality with its potentially negative impacts.
