GAURISAGAR: Artificial Intelligence is not better than the human brain. Machines can do things that humans cannot do. AI is not a messenger sent by God, it is an advanced man-made technology. With the increasing dominance of AI in today’s society and the way people are embracing it, it is certain that one day it will bring terrible danger to human society. If we cannot control the advantages brought by sophisticated technology, one day that technology will destroy human emotions. This was stated Dr.Devabrata Sharma, noted writer historian and former principal, Jorhat College while addressing as an chief orator in 43rd foundation day of Dikhowmukh College in Sivasagar district on Friday.

Addressing to the gathering Dr.Sarma briefed  in the seminar held on this occasion on the topic “Artificial Intelligence and the need for knowledge at the crisis of digital advancement.”  He stressed that the machines would not make mistakes even if they were helpful and that the medical profession would be closed down forever.

Dr Sharma also stated that Science is a knowledge and technology is a strategy but now science has surrendered to technology, Artificial intelligence is needed in medical science as it will help in performing subtle surgeries. Even if it helps, there is no guarantee that machines will not make mistakes.  “We need technology but we can only master it if we can practice technology together with art and science and control the techniques of technical skills in the palm of our hands,” Dr.Sarma added.
