“Artificial intelligence” was recognized as the word of the year

These days, the word artificial intelligence has become a familiar word for many members of society and non-professional users of the digital world; But we should not forget that until a few years ago, only specialists and activists in the field of intelligence were familiar with this technology. Undoubtedly, 2023 was the year when artificial intelligence changed from a specialized word to a common word and opened its foot to people’s daily life. Therefore, the tremendous influence of artificial intelligence has not gone away from the eyes of the Collins Dictionary collection and this famous dictionary has decided to give the title of word of the year to the most influential and developed word during the last year. This word is nothing but “AI” or artificial intelligence, which has been used more than 4 times in the last 12 months than in the same period in 2022.

Collins Dictionary is one of the most reliable dictionaries in the world, which has a history of 200 years in collecting words in its portfolio. Every year, this collection chooses a word as the chosen word of the year based on the developments and events that have happened, and this chosen term can well express the most important events of the year. For example, the words “NFT”, “quarantine” and “Brexit” are the words that have had the biggest jump in usage among people in the past years.

The decision was made by the Collins Group after the debate over the pros and cons of artificial intelligence came to a head. In the meantime, some people believe that artificial intelligence is a useful and revolutionary technology that can bring many positive changes to our lives, and on the other hand, a group of people believe that this technology will lead us to an ominous apocalypse in the not-so-distant future. Artificial intelligence will stand against the human race.

According to Alex Beecroft, CEO of Collins, artificial intelligence has penetrated the daily life of humans at an incredible speed, and we see it being used in many everyday activities, such as the Internet, email, online streaming services and other similar technologies.

The selection of artificial intelligence as the word of the year shows the deep impact of this technology on the world around us and the speed of its expansion is comparable to no other emerging technology. For example, it took almost three decades for computers to become an integral part of our daily activities and for businesses to accept the digitization of their processes instead of using traditional methods; But it only took 6 months for the users of artificial intelligence tools including ChatGPT to reach more than 100 million people and achieve an explosive growth.
