Abstract

The article analyzes, deepens, and reflects on the development and impact of artificial intelligence (AI) in various areas of society. The meaning of AI is the development of a scientific discipline that encompasses a set of cognitive and intellectual simulation capabilities expressed by computer systems through algorithms. The author distinguishes between weak artificial intelligence, which is concerned with performing specific tasks, and strong artificial intelligence, which forms an AI that will exceed human capabilities. AI is a disruptive force that radically changes traditional models and paradigms and requires constant adaptation and multidisciplinary training on the part of human beings. The proposal arises that the new generations are not only trained in technological careers, but also in humanistic disciplines such as philosophy, sociology, linguistics, and political science, to instruct AI with values and principles, even if they constitute complex filters. In their algorithms or part of their training. We must take advantage of the potential of AI to improve the quality of life and the general management of our actions in community. Some of the risks that already threaten and affect different sectors, industries, markets, etc. are described and predicted. The causes and effects of hallucinations of artificial intelligence (AI) are observed, as phenomena in which the AI produces or perceives information that does not correspond to reality. Coding errors, training biases or omissions, social engineering applied to AI, lack of information or data, or absence of strong algorithmic responses. We face ethical, social, and legal challenges. Governments, public administrations and obviously the private sector carry the responsibility of contributing to the control and regulation of AI on their backs. A new social contract between humans and the non-human autonomous entities that make up AI will soon become necessary. What role we will play in the future is a complex set of speculations and projections, not all these projections are the result of our will, they are not completely under our control. Today the strategic destiny of the society of the future no longer depends solely on our vision.
