If you never hear about the day of the appreciation of artificial intelligence, do not feel bad. It is not an official American holiday, and its origins are somewhat Dark. In 2021, the RAM was crowned on July 16 as the holiday while it was promoting a movie about artificial intelligence. In the following years, artificial intelligence companies jumped in this direction, and #aiapryciaciady’s posts on social media were published on July 16.

Over the past few years to develop the most advanced artificial intelligence models. It is almost impossible to escape artificial intelligence – it’s in us Smartphonesand Social media feed and search engines. But does this mean that it deserves the day of national appreciation?

I am an Amnesty International correspondent, and I spend a lot of time thinking about how Tools Available to us affects us individually and society. It leaves a strange feeling in my stomach to perpetuate a full day to raise the level of artificial intelligence (and apparently, the leaders of the companies that produce it) when it was much caused by artificial intelligence.

I know that I am not alone in this. There are many reasons that make you not feel the publication. Environmental, it is a disaster. The data that includes the servers you take A lot of energy and Fresh waterReports often appear Harm cities They are in.

(Disclosure: Zif Davis, the parent company CNET, filed a lawsuit against Openai, claimed that it had violated the copyright of ZifF Davis in training and operating artificial intelligence systems.)

Artificial intelligence is also huge Anxiety in the workplace In many fields-not because Chatbots or photo generators are actually suitable alternatives to any one job, but because the Ai-ahistic presidents believe that technology is the latest holy cup sacred for costs. Teachers are concerned about students’ use of Amnesty International Disable their development of critical thinking The necessary writing skills are not only to work, but also in general need for life.

Shot on the grill – or Stovetop, which is truly The best way to cook a hot dogAccording to CNET expert David Watsky.

There are many holidays related to food on July 16, including the days of appreciation for spinach, cherries and corn forces. You can get a full feast made of holiday foods on July 16, and I am positive It can arrive or miss the recipes created by artificial intelligence, especially when they are blindly followed. I can’t imagine anything more embarrassing than getting food poisoning because you listened to ChatGPT, frankly (intended). And if you are not a magician in the kitchen, it is also a patriotic personal chef.

The real days deserve to celebrate

While I love a makeup holiday no Give me existential awe, it is worth spending a moment to summon two prominent historical events that also occurred on July 16. Apollo 11 Mission It was launched on July 16, 1969, and four days later, the astronaut Neil Armstrong will be the first man to prolong the surface of the moon.

This scientific work that partially changes the world was accomplished by a The computer that ran on 70 watts From power – like a glowing lamp. This is the same as one chatGPT; CEO of Openai Sam Altman He said Chatgpt query uses about 0.34 watts an hour, which is the same as a highly efficient LED lamp used within minutes. So you can use the equivalent of energy for one light to send men to the moon in 1969, or one lamp today for artificial intelligence You cannot even tell us what the year is. Katie Perry Understanding Blue End Apartis TV flight Certainly use more energy than either of these. And we are supposed to believe that this is scientific progress?

The second historical event is Nuclear Trinity testWhich was the first nuclear weapons test conducted by the US military on July 16, 1945, in New Mexico. This is part of the reason that former President Biden Declare July 16 to be the day of the old national warriors, to remember and honor the old warriors who “not only serve our country with courage, but also participated in the nuclear tests that were conducted between 1945 and 1962 or were exposed to radioactive materials.” The realization of the consequences of what innovative technology at the time for real humans was definitely something that artificial intelligence lovers can do more.

The day of the appreciation of artificial intelligence is an opportunity to reset

I love a makeup marketing holiday as much as the next girl, but there is no day appreciating from artificial intelligence feels strange. But although I prefer to rent a personal chef to make me a hot holiday while watching the summer that turned into beautiful, there is some merit for a day dedicated to Amnesty International.

Like all holidays, we can treat today as a time for us to stop and take a moment to think. There is no doubt that artificial intelligence affected our lives, but this does not mean that it was in a positive way. What role do we want artificial intelligence in our future? How can we correct the damage that has already been done? These are questions that deserve to be asked.

I will not drop myself Ensure that Chatgpt knows that he is loved – I asked, and she says he is appreciated every time I use it. Go the shape. But I will use this day to reset and remind myself of all the very real consequences of Amnesty International. You must, too.
