A Boon Or A Bane? Poem by Bharati Nayak

A Boon Or A Bane?
Progress of science and technology
Has made human life so easy
Man has invented myriad things for comfort
Latest invention of AI is such a wonder!
AI works like a human brain
Thinking independently when challenged with a problem.
AI's use in medical science
Will surely help in early detection and treatment of a disease.
But AI's progress may be a curse for mankind
As men would stop doing their brain exercise
They would grow lazy
and leave all work to machines.
AI's entry in industry world
Would put pressure in the job market
As lesser and lesser people would be required
For doing work.
It will increase unemployment worldwide
Its early sign we can see as thousands lay off
By big companies.
It will create social chaos and unrest
As highly brainy people will only get employment.
Use of robots, drones and AI aided war weapons
May bring the world to destruction
We see that star wars are no longer a fiction
As countries are in stiff competition
To send spaceships to different planets
To prove their hegemony in space.
Science is either a boon or a bane
It depends on their use by the human
But if AI like machine brain replaces man
God knows what would be the fate of this world!
