Introduction Have you ever used Alexa, Siri, Google talk, or any voice command that lets you control a system? These are all artificial intelligence which is increasing in popularity. However, with the tremendous amount of popularity, there are also many questions of concern. Artificial Intelligence is going to have a tremendous impact when the development is more complete. Jobs, cleaning, education, transportation, and practically all aspects of our lives are going to be simplified. Are you ready for the big impact AI is going to have in the world? Background The first time AI was introduced was back in 1950. According to dictionary.com the definition of AI is, “The theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision making, and translation between languages.” The first usage of AI was in 1955 when Carnegie Mellon University researchers developed a computer program to help work on proofs which ended up becoming theorems. LIS Processing (LISP) which is the language of all AI uses, was created by John McCarthy when he was at MIT during 1958. When AI was introduced people thought it was going to be the next big thing in the next five years. Marvin Minsk, who attended the conference where AI was first discussed in 1970, even said, “In from three to eight years, we’ll have a machine with the general intelligence of an average human being... a machine that will be able to read Shakespeare or grease a car” (Shermac, 2014). However, AI’s popularity and development did not occur like Minsk predicted. The growth of AI started to become small increments but recently in the 20th century the rise of technology and phone has helped the field Artificial Intelligence on the Rise 3 of AI grow and development has become easier. Currently, AI has found success in understanding human speech, competing at the highest level in strategic game systems (such as chess), autonomous cars, intelligent routing in content delivery networks, military simulations, and interpreting complex data, including images and videos. The rise is only increasing, and no one can predict the potential of AI. The biggest concern people have for AI is what if AI would revolt, hacked, or turned evil. However, people think AI is futuristic and the problem would occur in the future, but the usage of AI is everywhere, and people do not even realize it. 63% of people do not even realize AI is being used in things such as google, amazon or even self checkouts (Eldrige, 2017).
