The development of AI has reached a point where making monumental improvements is becoming increasingly harder. To make the same leap now is not only more expensive but also requires amounts of power so large that companies are buying nuclear reactors to power them, not to mention the astronomical amount of space these AIs are starting to take up. Some of the things we talked about in class, like probabilistic AI and quantum computing, could possibly combat this problem, providing a way to increase the computing power of AI without taking up so much space.

This could allow AI to combat problems we haven’t even thought of yet or maybe just increase the efficiency of the world. It could also have a negative effect on education, where students in elementary, middle, and high school aren’t even learning things anymore because the AI is so good at replicating human work.
