Technology literacy and artificial intelligence are gaining more and more importance day by day, entering our homes and staying in our pockets.

Technology literacy is one of the most important features that a person should have today for reasons such as being one of the basic parts of the digital world that is developing at an incredible speed, providing competitive advantage in the business world, facilitating access to information and technology, and creating a much safer environment compared to tools such as primitive paper and pen.

Artificial intelligence, on the other hand, is a subject that is thought and discussed much more intensely than technological literacy. At the forefront of these discussions is the claim that “Artificial intelligence will take away people’s jobs.”

Worrying about evil AI killer robots today is a little bit like worrying about overpopulation on the planet of Mars.

-Andrew Ng, Stanford University

Artificial intelligence is not yet at a level to take over the jobs of all humanity. Of course, this is not a proof that artificial intelligence will not reach a level advanced enough to do this, but what we need to do for now is to work together with artificial intelligence. By seeing artificial intelligence not as an enemy but as a friend, we can make our work better with artificial intelligence and use it as a productivity tool.
