Unforeseen Circumstances

                  Since AI machines are not fully capable of applying intelligence like humans, it is very much
                  possible for them to make mistakes in unforeseen circumstances. This can be understood by a
                  simple example, if an AI system is asked to eradicate Corona Virus, it will research and come to
                  a conclusion that the virus is a parasite that won’t survive without a host. So, it might reach a

                  conclusion that to eradicate the virus, it must eliminate the host. This is an incorrect conclusion.































                  Threat To Human Dignity
                  In 1976, Joseph Weizenbaum (who is considered as one of the fathers of modern Artificial
                  Intelligence) argued that AI technology should not be used to replace humans in positions that

                  require respect and care. Some others also joined in this argument.
