The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has ushered in a new era, and fresh graduates are no exception to its transformative influence. As they transition from academia to the professional world, recent graduates encounter a landscape where AI plays a pivotal role. This article explores the multifaceted impact of AI on the fresh-graduate life, both academically and professionally, while addressing the challenges it presents.
Dive into the captivating realm of biomedical engineering, where the boundaries between biology and engineering blur to produce extraordinary innovations. At the forefront of this transformative field lies bioinstrumentation devices, the cutting-edge tools that seamlessly merge biological knowledge with engineering principles. From smart contact lenses that monitor vital signs to paper diagnostic devices to measure the quality of sperms, these remarkable devices hold the key to unlocking groundbreaking discoveries and transforming the landscape of healthcare.
With wages unable to match the escalating cost of living and the threat of ever-increasing inflation, the last thing the labor force needs is a faceless entity that stands to entirely change the very fabric of the global economy, potentially posing a threat to jobs and society as a whole.
In the ever-evolving landscape of finance, one entity stands as revolutionary: Artificial Intelligence (AI). Its transformative influence extends across industries, firmly establishing its roots in financial markets, where it reshapes conventions, automates operations, and disrupts established norms. As the impact of AI commands center stage, it draws both fascination and scrutiny. From sophisticated trading strategies to elevated customer experiences, AI's imprint is unmistakable. Yet, within this innovative realm of AI-driven financial era lies the critical responsibility of navigating challenges and capitalizing on opportunities.
Robots have been inspiring both negative and positive impressions ever since they were first conceptualized. On one hand, you have a fear of the unknown. People may see a humanoid device with powerful abilities and give in to the fear perpetuated by decades of movies and language that love to show robots as villains. Classic examples of this include I, Robot and The Terminator, both famous movies that perpetuate the idea of dangerous robots. In a more practical sense, there may be concerns about people losing their jobs to robots. An example of this would be self-driving cars uprooting the traditional trucking industry. Despite these ideas that can circulate in efforts to impede change, many people are excited to have robots in their lives. A 2008 study (C. Ray, et al) showed that many people in their survey group were happy about the prospect of domestic robots. Participants were especially excited about robots capable of verbal communication. Over ten years later, with devices like the Amazon Alexa in our homes, it’s easy to see how these early desires led to the creation of what is now a common interactive piece of technology.
Science fiction is littered with far-fetched characters like cyborgs, androids, terminators, daleks, and cybermen. These impossible creatures are a blending of man and machine in perfect harmony with things such as cybernetic arms and enhanced intelligence and strength. That future might be here sooner than you think, albeit minus the Hollywood exaggeration of mayhem and destruction (we hope). Brain control interfaces (BCIs) are defined as devices that, “acquire brain signals, analyze them, and translate them into commands that are relayed to output devices that carry out desired actions.” (1) Long story short, BCIs are the key piece of technology that helps man bind to machine. They act as the middleman between your brain and the machine you wish to control. Think of them as a translator. Your brain only speaks in neural impulses, and machines only understand binary. BCIs help convert your neural impulses into binary data and vice versa. These devices have been used for a variety of purposes, ranging from, “complex control of cursors, robotic arms, prostheses, wheelchairs, and other devices.” (1) In recent years, there have been amazing breakthroughs in the development of these BCIs.
A lot more jobs than just cashiers, tellers, and drivers could become automated.
