Artificial Intelligence
Meanwhile, in technologically advanced countries—where it originated—AI has required, and continues to require, colossal budgets amounting to hundreds of billions of dollars for its development. Tremendous efforts have also been made to create institutions and implement new regulations solely to formalize and control its usage.
What does this term actually mean?
Many of us are misled by the confusion surrounding this field and believe that artificial intelligence is an integral part of the solution to a technical problem in a given domain, rather than merely a tool to solve it.
I’ve seen freshly graduated youths on television claiming, while presenting their “creations” to senior officials, that these innovations contained artificial intelligence. How is this possible?
My dear friends, artificial intelligence is not an ingredient you add to a recipe to make it more appealing. In reality, it’s a means to facilitate access to a solution, no matter its complexity.
For instance, all the high-end smartphones available in stores contain applications powered by AI. Try running them without an internet connection—nothing, zero, nada… they won’t work unless you’re connected.
Meanwhile, in our context, equipment is presented as AI-powered without being connected. This is what we can call "raw human intelligence," which the world has yet to discover!
As I mentioned earlier, AI is a powerful tool that assists humans by calculating, compiling, comparing, and synthesizing vast amounts of data in just milliseconds—tasks that would take humans hours or even days to accomplish.
However, AI is particularly useful in research centers, design offices, and development organizations. It aids in the design of new machines, airplanes, superstructures, and other innovative products. It also plays a crucial role in the medical field, performing complex diagnoses in a very short amount of time. Additionally, it contributes to drug discovery by compiling decades of documented experiments and results (the collective memory of humanity) within fractions of a second.
To summarize: AI is essential due to its speed in processing vast amounts of data, analyzing them, and proposing accurate solutions to problems presented to it.
In simpler terms, AI functions like an algorithm that solves a problem within a given field. However, in the case of AI, the algorithm is open to all existing scenarios.
In my opinion, AI can never be both a part of the solution and its initiator simultaneously, contrary to what is often claimed by so-called researchers who make the uninformed believe their projects contain AI. I am convinced that what they believe to be AI is, in reality, just an electronic solution with a computer program performing a repetitive task.
AI is far more serious than that. The companies that ventured into this competition have spared no expense, spending billions of dollars, only to realize later that they entered a treacherous terrain.
The European Union has raised the alarm and demanded the establishment of a law to regulate AI usage. Industrialized countries are beginning to see more clearly in this area and understand the need to establish boundaries for its unregulated use.
From a technical perspective: For AI to operate at its source and respond to the demands of millions of users, it requires the deployment of next-generation supercomputers with extraordinary power and speed. These machines feature processors of 3µm or less (only God knows), capable of performing 36 quintillion (36 x 10¹⁸) operations per second—an astonishing feat. Researchers in the field are already eyeing quantum technology to push these speeds even further.
All of this exorbitantly priced hardware runs on a specialized algorithm developed by the computing genius Samuel Altman, an American born on April 22, 1985, in Chicago. Altman is the CEO and co-founder of OpenAI and the creator of the renowned application ChatGPT.
A Message to Local Researchers:
Be more humble before this modern-day pyramid. Although AI is still in its learning phase, such resources are non-existent outside certain Western countries—led by the United States—and a few Asian nations.
So, dear researchers, stop exaggerating about this phenomenal tool currently at your disposal. Nothing guarantees it will remain so indefinitely. Use it as much as you can, but dedicate yourselves to serious work. Don’t underestimate people’s intelligence.
Our country's highest authorities have opened the way for you, rolling out the red carpet by providing substantial financial and material support. Now, it’s time to show us what you’re truly capable of.
Remember that when you showcase your findings, you are being watched through the media by people with over 40 years of experience in your field. They understand perfectly well the capabilities and limitations of your innovations.
I am personally convinced that my country has thousands of Samuel Altmans, but they prefer to contribute to the success of foreign companies rather than those of their own country, which educated, trained, and nurtured them without charging a penny. On the contrary, they were supported throughout their academic journey. In the end, they left without even saying "thank you." Are they aware that they owe a debt to their country?
