  5. The Future Role of Autonomous Agents • AI has made impressive progress in manufacturing, consumer products, finance, management, and medicine. • Advances have also been made in knowledge engineering systems, perception, human language understanding, fuzzy systems, and modeling of the brain and evolution [10]. • The current success stories in AI are in areas such as machine vision, speech understanding, and knowledge processing do not incorporate common sense, thus progress in AI research as a realization of human intelligence has been dismal at best. • However, the future of AI is going to remain controversial. • Two schools of thought have been forming according to what is perceived as good or bad about AI’s contribution to humanity. • In one school are those who take a dark view of AI contributions, labeling all AI activities as research gone wrong, “mad scientist” research in the spirit of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. They list a litany of concerns: Ethical and Social...J.M.Kizza

  6. In contrast to these naysayers, the other school see the future of AI as very beneficial to humanity. • They see a fruitful partnership with the agents in which the agents are relieving us of all our dangerous and tedious tasks, making our lives a little easier and helping us reach our ultimate goal of the good life.
