Are you wondering and worrying about Chatbox, chatGPT - an embodiment of artificial intelligence (AI), about its advantages that will make you lose your job, lose many other opportunities in the future. So what do people need to do to welcome this new technology wind? NYM - a book by Nguyen Phi Van will help you decode the presence of AI in your life.
The book consists of 20 chapters. Each chapter is about the problems that young people are facing in their daily lives in the language of the GenZ generation: do you understand, youth is like a cup of tea, what is the use of a lot of money, how to live a cool life, a lot of housework, do it when you want... NYM is present in each chapter to explain and summarize for people how people are behaving and what are the consequences. How to be human, not a machine.
Who is NYM?
NYM is a robot programmed by a 22-year-old man. At first, NYM was on a computer screen, and most of the data from ancient times to the present on the internet was loaded into NYM. In addition, NYM also has the ability to search every corner of the internet, synthesize all the data on a topic, analyze, predict, find the answer within 30 seconds, and open its mouth to speak and write according to the "trend" of internet language.
NYM was born to be friends with teenagers, then became close friends with them. “You guys text NYM when you are sad, happy, confused, and even in despair…” Because of his love for humanity, before returning to the future world , NYM shared his thoughts while talking and being friends with young people. NYM pointed out the social problems that today are facing.
Through stories with young people, NYM synthesizes the events that happen in daily life that put people at risk of becoming “machines”, while “machines” are learning to become “humans”. And if people do not change, machines will dominate humans in the future, such as: Learning and teaching at school are still based on memorization, rote learning, “If you keep cramming old knowledge, you will not be as good as a machine for the rest of your life”. As a result, people are born ignorant and lack life skills.
Parents are busy making money, and in their free time they surf social networks. Teachers are busy with making a living, competing, and achieving. Young people are online all day, unable to look each other in the eye, unable to speak to each other. They have many friends but they only “like randomly and click on funny faces and angry faces”.
Young people today are disconnected from people in the real world. From being curious about sex, finding a lover, what to study, how to eat healthily, how to live a happy life… people ask machines, but cannot share or talk with their parents, relatives, or friends. This leads to depression, self-harm, and then ending their own lives.
People do not know how to protect themselves in the digital age: “NYM can reach into every corner of life, every image, status line or random comment on the internet of each individual. Data footprints, whether online or offline, harvested by the eyes and ears of devices worn on the body or placed nearby, whatever is needed for any purpose, NYM will expose everything in 30 seconds. The machine will monitor people 24/7 with no way to escape. Thanks to the continuously collected big data, AI can predict both human behavior and future desires.”
What do we learn from the book?
To avoid digital dangers, people need to equip themselves with digital survival skills. People should be careful when exposing their personal information online. No matter what type of application, they need to carefully read the "I accept" "paper of sale" when installing. Images of people wearing skimpy clothes, showing off their skin, and being sexy posted on social networking sites are delicious bait for perverts... Technology is not bad, but technology is extremely two-sided, a double-edged sword, requiring people to be wise in learning, learning how to use and manage it. Otherwise, it will become a tool for bad people to control and destroy people.
With the development of technology, machines will take over all human work. Therefore, to be human, not machine, young people need to practice 5 principles: 1) Passion will make people persistently go forward, no matter how difficult. 2) Curiosity - to ask the right questions, the quality of the questions determines the quality of the data for people to make the right decisions.
3) Imagination determines the vision that creates the future and the world. 4) Critical thinking - helps people distinguish right from wrong, not easily led or taken advantage of. 5) Persistence and courage - do not give up, keep trying, keep creating, keep testing new ideas to achieve goals, to pursue passion.
And finally, no matter what era, people still follow the law of birth, aging, sickness and death. With or without technology, people only hope to have the right to be human, to be loved, respected, happy and peaceful.
Reading NYM, you will see a clear, comprehensive picture of the digital era. How people interact in digital space, the development of 3D technology, AI applications in human health care, digital banking... and learn how to redesign your life. Live every second, every minute in the present.
