Artificial intelligence (A. I.) is a powerful tool for aiding human decision making. This activity is important because managers need to understand the tremendous capabilities, but also the serious dangers, inherent in using A. I. The goal of this exercise is to challenge your knowledge of the applications and downsides of A. I. Read the descriptions of various aspects of artificial intelligence. Choose whether each item is an application of A. I. or a downside of A. l.

a. Hospitals use A-I. to monitor patients and predict the risk Of death two days earlier than ever before possible.
b. A. I. sensors can alert drivers to potential hazards and accidents.
c. It is difficult to program machine learning systems to act in ways that are desired and predictable.
d. The potential to aid in human decision making
e. Al. is devoid of common sense.
f. There is the potential for Al. to be put to malicious use.
g. Machines guided by A. I. are faster and more powerful than humans when building and evaluating models and simulations to make predictions.

a. APPLICATION

If the risk of death can be predicted ahead of time, actions can be taken to mitigate that risk.

b. APPLICATION

If A.I. sensors can alert drivers to potential accidents, the drivers can take action to avoid said accidents which means that A.I can reduce the number of accidents occurring.

c. DOWNSIDE

The difficulty in getting A.I. to act in a certain way is a downside because the A.I. can give undesirable and irrelevant responses.

d. APPLICATION

If A.I. can aid humans in decision making so that decisions are better then this is an application.

e. DOWNSIDE

Common sense is very important in certain scenarios and is A.I. is devoid of this then it will take longer to perform in scenarios where common sense was needed.

f. DOWNSIDE

A potential for A.I. to be used in nefarious and malicious ways is most definitely a downside.

g. APPLICATION.

If A.I. can make better and more effective simulations than humans, this is an application that will save costs in a lot of industries.

answer; that person may have a larger tax bill to pay on income taxes;
