Heartificial IntelligenceEmbracing Our Humanity to Maximize Our Machines

John C. Havensjohnchavens.com / @johnchavens

There’s two types of AI (Artificial Intelligence)One called, “Strong,” the other, “Weak.”

It’s when machines gain sentience that devastation they could wreak.

That’s why Friendly AI

Is so important to evolve.

So here’s my suggestion for this

problem we should solve.

It’s not about welcoming our

overlords, or living in fear.

We need to measure what we love and hold most dear.

Embrace Humanity.Celebrate what’s unique

between us and machines.

While Artificial Intelligence is peachy keen,

We need to live more from the heart and be Genuine.

Wearable sensors, geeky eyeglasses, too.

As Big Data keeps getting bigger, What happens to me and you?

As machines take our jobs,

Automation on the rise,

If devices do so much for us,

what’s left for us to prize?

The human interface, it’s pretty simple, don’t you see?

Find your purpose in helping others, That’s the psychology.

So my friends, I salute you, what you do is quite profound.

In between machines and people you provide safe middle

ground.

IT Professionals, to you my thanks are due.

When it comes to your hearts and minds, nothing takes the place of you.

Embrace HumanIT.Embrace HumanIT.

While Artificial Intelligence is peachy keen,

We need to live more from the heart and be Genuine.

PLEASE NOTE

While I say “IT Professionals,” this is shorthand for all of the amazing

attendees here today, including anyone in Data Center, AV, Facilities, Real Estate,

Construction Managers, Project Managers, CEO’s, CTO’s, and CFO’s.

I pander without judgment.

Also, “HumanIT” fit the song better than the whole list.

Embrace HumanIT.Embrace HumanIT.Embrace HumanIT.Embrace HumanIT.

While Artificial Intelligence is peachy keen,

We need to live more from the heart and be Genuine.

I like humans.

I like machines.
