With fast-emerging artificial intelligence, or AI, technology and its growing uses in many areas of society, concerns are arising about AI’s potentially troubling impacts. A recent AI Boot Camp for a group of Arizona high school students explored reactions to AI’s expanding ubiquity. Leaders of the event sought to separate facts from misconceptions and to explore AI as a promising career path. Aviral Shrivastava, a professor in the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence, part of the Fulton Schools, says boundaries can be put in place that can help to keep AI in check. But as with all rapidly advancing technologies, Shrivastava adds, decisions must be made on how AI is applied to ensure it is used to serve the public interest.
