On March 19th, 2025, our MLISc classroom came alive with a heated debate: “Should We Fear AI Becoming Smarter Than Us?” Students split into two groups—one side worried about smarter AI, while the other saw its potential as a positive force. Both sides participated in the debate enthusiastically.
The highlighted points include: AI could cause job losses, leading to social and economic problems; If not handled carefully, AI could be misused or act in unpredictable ways; AI could make us less reliant on our own reasoning and judgment; while the opposite team claimed that Technology has always brought fears but humanity adapts and benefits in the end; AI works only under human control; and Working with AI can actually make humans more effective, not less.
The audience joined in with questions about fairness, ethics, and whether machines can ever truly understand people. The moderator reminded everyone that while it’s important to be cautious about AI’s future, it can be shaped for good if we are careful and thoughtful.
The debate ended with everyone thinking deeply about AI—not just with fear, but also hope and responsibility.
