AI, or deep learning, takes in massive amounts of data from a single domain and automatically learns from the data to make specific decisions within that domain. It can automatically optimize (优化) human-given goals with _________ memory and superhuman accuracy.

The potential applications for AI are extremely exciting, but the rise of AI also brings many _________. It’s worth taking time to sort between the genuine risks of this coming technological revolution and the _________ that sometimes surround the topic.

First, let’s talk about job displacement. Because AI can   _________ humans at routine tasks, it is technically capable of displacing hundreds of millions of white and blue collar jobs in the next 15 years or so.

But not every job will be replaced by AI. _________, four types of jobs are not at risk at all. First there are creative jobs. AI needs to be given a _________ to optimize. It cannot _________ as scientists, novelists and artists can. Second, the complex, strategic jobs go well beyond the AI _________ of single domain and Big Data. Then there are the as-yet-unknown jobs that will be created by AI. Are you worried that these three types of jobs won’t employ as many people as AI will replace? Not to worry, as the fourth type is much _________ : empathetic and compassionate jobs, such as teachers, nannies and doctors, which AI is not capable of. So there will still be jobs in the age of AI.

As well as job displacement. AI has the potential to _________ inequality - both between the super wealthy and the displaced workers and also among countries. Poorer and smaller countries will be unable to reap the economic rewards that will come with AI and less well placed to _________ job displacement.

The technology also poses serious challenges in terms of _________. The consequences of hacking into AI - controlled systems could be severe.

Finally, there are the issues of privacy, worsened prejudices and manipulation (操纵). Sadly we’ve already seen _________ on this front. Facebook couldn’t resist the temptation to use AI technology to optimize usage and profit, at the expense of user privacy and increasing prejudices and division.

All of these risks require governments, businesses and technologists to _________ develop a new rule book for AI applications. And rather than compare against one another countries must share best practices and work together to ensure this technology is used for the _________ of all.
