The question of whether AI is a friend or a foe is a nuanced
one. It largely depends on how AI is used and managed. AI has the potential to be a powerful ally in various fields, enhancing efficiency, aiding in complex
problem-solving, and even performing tasks that can be dangerous for humans. On the other hand, if not developed or used responsibly, AI could pose risks to
job security, privacy, and ethical standards.
