The first video below contains some famous claims and comments stemming from Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX (and one of the founders of PayPal, some time ago) -- and Stephen Hawking, and others. What do these observations have to do with ethics? The question is how we address the impact of technology on jobs, on human behavior, and even the meaning of human life. Be sure to check these out! Then make comments on your responses with regard to how human beings should respond, adapt, or prepare for these changes. It's probably that we can't go 'backwards'; how do we come to terms with what... 'we' have wrought!

This is a big issue indeed, that we can not go backwards. Man has done so many technological changes and he has brought so many of such changes in day to day life that it is almost like we can not imagine our lives without technology. This AI artificial intelligence has got human nature as the Nick correctly said, let us take example of washing machine over the years it has been developed and is doing lot of tasks that human used to do to wash his clothes, there are many features develop such as hot water , cold water, soaking, and many functions which a human performed.
A person who knew many languages was considered as intelligent one such as Swami Vivekanand but as rightly said there are now machines or softwares which know languages. We can deal with such changes but not fully automising all the softwares, the main commands such as to run, to think e.g. in case of translation - to proof read should all be done by a human being. If we can sought out the artificial intelligence only as an help but as a ultimate doer of things we can start progressing our thinking accordingly.
Same would the case for finance for e.g. though there may be automatic calculations to but to proof read such task a human brain is required. If we segregate our task and tasks done by the computer it would be easier for us to develop so and so function of computer or AI.
