Is scientific development overtaking human foresight?

I think it's important to talk about this situation without blindly claiming that artificial intelligence or any scientific research would ruin human life. So, human foresight is basically the ability to predict. Therefore, when we think about this topic, I get stuck on a question can a machine really replace humans? Because machines cannot think. So, they can't even predict the future. But if someone invents something like that, he is still the one who is thinking. A human!   He obviously imagines the consequences before building something e.g. A robot. While doing particular research, a scientist has a rough idea of its future results and its effects. However, on the other hand, we also need to know that he is thinking about only the next 10-20 years. But what about the next 400 years? Next 800 years? We think about our secured future through AI, but what about the future of humans after 500 years? Do we really think about it? If we did, we wouldn't have built launc...

Chronically Homesick!

It's been a roller coaster journey staying away from your home. It's not just the education that counts; it teaches you a lot of things. It provides you with fresh confidence, a new set of friends, a new city, new people, and new experiences, all of which contribute to a whole new life. But most importantly, it helps you realize what your home means to you. When you leave home, you don't just leave those four walls, but everything else as well, which you won't comprehend until you spend six months in those cramped hostel caves. It hits when you realize you won't be sleeping on that same bed, opening that window again, playing in this courtyard, watering these plants, studying in that corner, or spending time on the terrace watching birds and roaming around for fun. It will not be the same again! When you're scheduled to go, you expect to return. It's not just three years. When you leave, you want to explore the new city, enjoy your college life, and make you...

"Whispers of a Wandering Mind"

One day, you initiate it. You begin your day in this very same manner, with no idea of what is appropriate or inappropriate. Just thoughts, thoughts on how easy life is, how hard life is, or anything... I wonder if others who think excessively about everything are considered overthinkers or if I am the only one who enjoys thinking meticulously about everything, which is also a more loving behavior. The sound of that one bird singing about its world and its own cage-free existence pleased me. Are we all living a no-cage life today? We are living a complexly simplified life of our own and living life with all those other 8 billion people on this platform called Earth. How beautiful that would be if I was the only one doing what I was doing, though someday, I would be alone chasing my dreams, will it be called chasing really? While thinking about that, what do we define chasing in life? Want that for ourselves or is that too for the world? ! the WORLD … seems like I am truly living in...

Pixels and Perception: The Digital Makeover Dilemma

Have you all seen those bright red apples at first sight, but when you buy them, bring them home, and keep them in water for a while, you find out that it was just a coating? The apple isn’t really that bright red. Every one of us knows about this, so did you stop buying and eating apples? We are facing the biggest cultural alteration of decades, named Westernization. We have also faced the biggest educational alteration in a century. Environmental alteration of changing natural landscape into cities and calling it urbanization, genetic alteration, physical alterations, and many more... We never thought about banning this stuff... Why is it that every time this digital word comes up, social media comes up, and we are ready to ban some or the other thing? What kind of impotence is this?? All this Photoshop and stuff is used because people don’t want to see what is imperfect because that is what they see all around. We , as humans, psychologically like to watch idealistic things  mo...
