Reading and Writing B

READING

Read the article about science fiction. Five sentences have been removed. Which sentence (A–F) fits each gap (1–5)? There is one extra sentence which you do not need to use. How Science Fiction Could Save Us

Dramatic, sci-fi-type stories, comics, and films suggesting that AI (or artificial intelligence) ‘might one day take over human control of the world’ have been popular for decades. (----1----) That is, until recently. Now, while the sci-fi narrative may seem like far-fetched works of fiction or ‘fake news’, scientists are warning that they could, in fact, become reality. They raise a serious question: with such rapid developments in science and technology happening all the time, where does science fiction stop and future reality begin? A current problem is that companies prefer to emphasize only the positive aspects of new technologies, and avoid advertising any potential negative consequences. (----2----) However, they fail to mention the increased danger of cyberattacks on electronic technologies. Also, while driverless cars might sound like an appealing idea, they could have a negative effect on public health because people may choose to drive more rather than walk or cycle. At the moment, it seems we’re not seeing the complete picture when it comes to future technology. (----3----) According to experts, computer programmes or ‘algorithms’ must be tested for safety in the same way as new medicines and products are tested before they are made available to the public. They warn that if these tests don’t happen, the consequences for society could be serious. Some researchers are already working with technology companies to tackle this issue by creating guidelines for the rules and ethics of creating AI and future technologies. Another interesting theory is that designers could use stories, known as ‘design fiction’, to consider any consequences or negative effects of creating a certain technology or product. How can story writing help the designers of the future design better? (----4----) A positive step forward would be for designers to create and share more stories to make sure that all aspects of a new technology, whether positive or negative, are explored. While computer algorithms and AI can make complex calculations, they do not have the ability to use basic critical-thinking skills such as logic and imagination. Humans, on the other hand, are able to question and predict, change their minds, or see things from a different perspective. Although the idea of design fiction is based on sci-fi, the writers needn’t be particularly creative or talented. They just need to be open-minded, willing to share and listen to each other’s ideas, and be able to use their individual expertise to consider all possible outcomes. Design fiction workshops could use group brainstorming activities such as concept cards and storyboards to develop narratives and explore possible scenarios. (----5----) The aim would be that the resulting designs would avoid negative consequences and therefore be safer and more beneficial to society. After all, we want to be able to enjoy new technologies as they emerge, not fear them!

A Design fiction could help to predict the impact future technologies will have on society, and make sure that it is safe to use, and easy to control. B Scientists predict that if such a story went viral, it would cause worldwide panic. C They have been a thrilling source of entertainment but never any real cause for public concern. D This type of forward planning and careful consideration would allow scientists, designers, engineers, and entrepreneurs to work together in a positive and productive way. E So, how do we prevent future technology from misbehaving? F For example, they may claim that driverless cars will be the solution to all our transport problems. Reading total 10
