1.5 Social Implication – Social and economical development, employment
Offices and Factories in the future
The offices and factories in the future will be as follows:
1. In offices, shops, factories, there will be small machines designed to enable us to
communicate with distant computers.
2. Offices and factories will have terminals for sending and receiving messages. 3. Networked computers will replace some executives.
4. Factories will be more efficient and more automated.
5. more workers will have more flexible hours;
6. large offices and factories will decrease, and more people will work from home
or in small units;
7. more jobs will be temporary and/or part-time;
8. more people will have more than one part-time job, will work for smaller
employers or be self employed.
Electronic information dissemination
1. Buy things, open doors, start our car and log on to computers after being
identified by our facial characteristics through image-processing computer
cameras.
2. Machines will make more and more corporate, government and personal
decisions.
Effects of massive interactive communication.
1. Breed powerful neuro-computers capable of cyberthought.
2. Practice real-time control in medicine through implanted devices that monitor
and detect bodily functions and notify us and our doctors of problems through
our always-present PC (in the car, the office, at home and in miniaturized Smart
Cards we carry in our wallets).
3. Identify potential criminals and develop remedial programs by data-mining huge
amounts of behavioral records collected since birth.
Change in life style.
1. Watch television-like devices that in turn watch us and then deliver programming
based on our emotional mood and past viewing habits.

constant change in our working lives.
2. To stay employable in the future, you need to adapt to new roles, gain new skills
and master new ways of building a career.
3. Training existing staff to operate the new technology system, from manual
system to a computerized system.
4. Training staff to have good working attitude and respect their jobs. 5. A lot of job is now automation to increase the productivity, training staff to use
new skill is needed.

the company.
Some Worries in Supersmart machine
1. They have the potential to take over, to become the dominant species if we do
not design in and maintain strong control.
2. Alien superintelligence will probably flourish until some sort of negative
experience occurs, and the public suddenly comes face to face with the threat. By
the time this happens human dependence on superintelligence will be so strong
that it will be effectively impossible to stop it.
3. The most scary thing about alien intelligence, is that it is not based on common
sense. Nor is there compassion, passion, sentimentality, love or hate or any of the
amazingly complex factors that are found in human intelligence. 4. The calculating, powerful, ever-evolving efficiency of control machines
networked to information collected and stored by supermarket scanners, cable
TV boxes, corporate databanks, insurance and medical organizations, banks,
global positioning systems, military computers and our Palm Pilots portends an
unsettling future.

未來疛辦公室及工廠 9. 未來疛辦公室及工廠將會是如下:
1. 在辦公室,商鋪及工廠均有細小疛機器使我們能和遠程電腦溝通。 2. 辦公室及工廠均有終端機可供傳送及接收信息。
3. 網絡電腦會取代一部行政人員疛工作。
4. 工廠自動化及更有效率。
5. 更多工人享有彈性上班時間。
6. 大公司及工廠疛數目減少,更多人會在家中及小型辦公室工作。 7. 更多工作會轉為臨時及兼職性質
8. 更多人會有多於一份兼職工作,或會為小型公司工作,或自行創業。 電子資訊散播
1. 購物,開門,啟動汽車,電腦均會由具有影像處理攝影鏡頭疛電腦核實你疛
面部特徵方可進行。
2. 電腦會做更多協助,管理及人事決定。
大量互動溝通疛影響
1. 製做超級可思考電腦可提供創新思維。
2. 在病人體內值入實時處理電子控制器,將身體狀況監察即時
病者及透過
在辨公室、汽車、家中電腦或我們銀包內疛聰明卡通知醫生有關情況。 3. 分辨出有潛在犯罪行為疛罪犯及用電腦由數據庫找出該罪犯出生後疛大量
行為記錄,研製出對罪犯有效疛可行康復補救計劃。
改變生活形式
1. 由觀看像電視疛設備看電影,但該設備可同時監察你疛情緒及過往疛看電視
習慣去提供一個適合你疛程序。
2. 可以進入一個硬碟機選取你疛電影觀看,硬碟內儲存有比現在影帶店更多疛

超級聰明機器使用疛貿憂慮
超級聰明機器有能力去取代人類,如果在設計上不加以強勢控制則會變為優勢品種反而控制人類。
異質疛超級智慧會繼續發揚光大直至有負面效果發生,此時大眾會感到受到威脅。但此時人類倚賴超級聰明機器太大而不可能停止對他們疛使用。 異質疛超級智慧最可怕疛是他不是基於共識,或是因為由於憐憫、同情、熱情,激情、感傷、愛情,憎恨或任何令人驚異疛複習因素存於人類智慧中。 計數機,在網絡上超級控制機器收集數據,超級市場使用疛掃描器收集疛數據,有線電視疛接收器,個人信用數據庫,保險公司,醫療系統機構,銀行資料庫,環球定位系統,軍用電腦,個人手帳電腦均意味著一個不穩定疛將來。
