It is a simple thought process of the future work going around us in various parts of the world. I would like to thank my Professor Dr. M. Ezhilarasan, who is the ignite for me to search about some thing really gonna be cutting edge.
When I told my friend we could protect the Environment using computers a
couple of years ago, he just laughed at me. Exactly after a year, we saw robots
trained to do the surgeries and even mimic doctors in many other aspects. In
this blog, I am not talking about this, but something more advance than this.
That is building a program that will automatically detect something that went
wrong in a human being and repairs it automatically. Yes, it is possible. The
thing I am talking about is very similar to self-diagnosis, but why I did not
use that word is, here we are going to use some machine, which will take care
of this all process.
The simple way of explaining this concept is, think of a program, which
is having some error in a function. In that case, is we debug it the error can
be resolved and the program will be running smoothly. Similarly, the reason why
one
gets illness is similar functionality failures inside the human body.
What if a machine help us to debug the issue, all we need to do is to teach a
machine how a problem can be detected and how it can be resolved. In this blog,
we will see some of the researches closely working to solve this problem. Think of having something like this in this
pandemic situation, wow, its super amazing and it would have probably saved a
lot of human beings lives and there would not been this bio war situation.
Coming to the researches going on around the world, In Caltech
University there have been
researches going on in Molecular Programming and Synthetic Biology. In past 20
and more years many researches are working there to create a program that will
produce things in such a way human beings are born.
Going little deep the programs they are writing on DNA
designs will tend to produce something extraordinary and something human can
design. You have a doubt, “Does human is trying to become GOD?” yes, that is
what exactly happens. Apart from Caltech, there are also many more universities
across the world, mainly in Israel, USA working on this. There is another
branch of Computer Science called Enzyme Computing where the researches are working to detect
how the enzymes and mutations in human bodies are being done and comparing with the
computers.
If you have
thought I am deviating from the topic, it is a big no. It was a sample case of
a scenario where a lot of researches are trying to mimic the human creator.
Coming back to our topic, I will be briefly discussing how it can be done and
what is going on along with what had happened. Have a look at this picture. No,
I am not talking about what you are thinking; I want you to understand this in
a way that machine will protect us from getting self-diagnosed.
The first doubt anyone reading
this will get is how a machine can know all these. This is the area where the
famous branch of Computer Science and Information Technology plays a role, i.e.
networking. Alongside a human attached with many wearable IoT devices to keep
track of the functionalities of a human being, some researches are working on
protocols, which will make machines to interact with humans in such a way
machines are communicating. One of such research I have recently happened to
see while Googling is “Scientists
discover signalling circuit boards inside body's cells”. Besides, there is a research paper where
some researches had discussed protocols. This is where the enzyme computing
researches will be applied to detect how they are moving (enzyme dynamics),
processing the signals (enzymatic signal processing) etc.
Further discussing
this topic in the next step, after human & machine interaction, what we get
is data, have a look at this picture. A single human sperm consists of 37 MB of
data, think of how much amount of data can be produced in a minute, hour and a
day. It is enormous and this is where our currently emerging and trending
fields of IT comes into the picture, they are none other than Big Data and AI.
Apart from these two as I have discussed recently with one of my friend working
on Blockchain had told “it has capabilities of networks and data handling”, so,
this would be another technology which can be a part of this revolution.
As we have got the data and stored it and processing using different
techniques of AI such as ML, DL etc., think of the process with such a huge
amount of data. This is where Quantum computing appears with great process
power. So, apart from IT things, when we go to other main parts of this work
where biochemical researches come in to picture. Where they are studying all
the chemical and biological reactions in a human body and working at the
cutting edges of information and technologies for our bright future.
Concluding this discussion, AI does not kill human jobs but it creates a
new kind of human who
is like a real human by doing works that is done by a human, not by machines. Than using drugs, which contains steroids and affects the human body like how pesticides are increasing numerous kinds of cancers in human and destroying the soil, it is always better to work on and with AI and innovative technologies, which will protect human in a better way.
