The Bad, the Good, and the Rebellious Bots
Silvia Lombardo · Advances in computational intelligence and robotics book series · 2020
The researcher explores the world's first use of AI. In the “Bad Bot” section, the authors look at the negative impact of AI in politics with the first elections won in history through the use of AI's bots and trolls propaganda, and how it could bring to a more dystopian future with deepfakes. In the “Good Bot” section, they focus on positive case studies; starting with the 2021 Tokyo Olympics and health, they explore AI techniques applied from the infinitive small, Higgs Boson, to the infinitely large, dark matter; we'll meet Cimon at the Space Station; AI in climate change and pioneer UN projects such as “Earth” and “Humanitarian” AI; in education, they look at the latest use of AI helping schools and EU project “Time Machine.” They also see examples done to tackle the “Bad Bots” section looking at what is being implemented. This chapter will finally look at the world's first rebellious behaviour in bots with funny examples that will make you think.
