AI will take over the world, but WHEN do you think this will happen?

I know that all of you know by now that AI is starting to creep into our daily lives, but as I was trolling the internet I ran across an interesting article that peeked my interest in the question below:

When do you think AI will take over the world?

I don't mean take over as it (RUN) the united states, I actually mean (When will AI be so entrenched in our daily lives, we will not be able to live without it?)

This reminds me of the Internet/Web and how in the 80's and 90's, it was barely starting to make its way into our living rooms (By use of computers), and now every T.V., Stereo, and vehicle has a connection to the internet at all times.
What is interesting to point out is the advancement in technologies starting in the 70's up until now. As I was researching I noticed that technology in general had not leaped until about the early 70's, then we took off!!! 
Which brings me to the NEWEST think I found out about Artificial Intelligence. I ran across an article that mention's how "The AI that will take over the world has already been born"!
Yes, I am pretty serious about the statement above.
Apparently we already have a software that  has been developed, so it can re-develop itself. Sounds crazy right? Imagine something that can re-create itself, then it can place the actual intelligence into this item too, and create more of the same product.
I know what you are thinking about!!! Those movies where we see Robots creating robot, Hollywood seems to be cranking them out on a normal basis, so I know you know what I am referring to.

So, Back to my original Question,

When do you think AI will take over the world? or When will AI be so entrenched in our daily lives, we will not be able to live without it?

Here is a post on the AI that has already been born.

How do you imagine the future? Will you allow Artificial Intelligence in your home?

Hello again,

In the past few blogs I have been posting information pertaining to the following:

* Artificial Intelligence 2200 (What will it look like?)
* Updated information on AI testing in our Schools.
* Can Artificial Intelligence change life as we know it?


I'm going to head a new direction with this post and ask a question that many of you have talked about at home.

How do you imagine the future?

&

Will it (The future) involve Artificial Intelligence in your home?

In the last few weeks, I have been discussing Artificial Intelligence and how it is starting to creep its way into our daily lives without us even realizing the technology exists.

Over the weekend I happened to be over at a department store shopping for a new Washer and Dryer, but decided to make my way over to the Refrigerators. As I walked around in the store, I noticed that the newest Washers and Dryers had a new form of technology, but what really surprised me was the Refrigerators.

The newest additions have a digital platform that allows you to communicate with your Refrigerator. The Refrigerator I happened to be playing with had some form of AI, that allowed it to communicate to the owner when something was getting low, or when an item needed to be replenished.

I then walked over to the audio section, to find a full display of (Alexa) type speakers available for anyone to test out in the store.

As I walked around in the store, the customer service representative approached me with a SMART speaker and told me that we NEEDED to purchase this for our home. I quickly refused to purchase the item, and we left the store without purchasing anything at all.

Upon arrival to our home,  I continued the conversation about the SMART speaker the customer service representative had brought me in the store.

As I sat down in front of my NEW Laptop to do homework, I called out loud to my 12yrs old. All of a sudden something responded out of my computer!

Apparently, the computer I purchased came with an embedded software program that is called, (CORTANA), and it has been listening to everything I have been doing for a few weeks.

I found it odd, that I did not even allow this software to record what I was doing, but it still was operating on my device.

Has this ever happened to anyone else?

I tried not to allow these devices into my home of residence for fear of my privacy, but somehow it was embedded into the laptop.

SO,
I once again pose the following question:

How do you imagine the future?

&

Will it (The future) involve Artificial Intelligence in your home?
