Nowadays, many aspects of peoples daily life have undergone considerable changes because of the recent development in artificial intelligence. Obviously, artificial intelligence has already completely renovated peoples lifestyle. On the one hand, the contribution of artificial intelligence to the society is prominent and peoples dependence on it is an irreversible trend. People enjoy the benefits and convenience brought by intelligent machines. On the other hand, people are still concerned about its negative impact, for example, whether our brains will regress with intelligent machines to do the thinking. In my opinion, artificial intelligence will enable our brains to get more creative. Admittedly, a lot of work has been done by intelligent machines. It seems that the function of people has been weakened and peoples brains have been replaced. As a matter of fact, thanks to intelligent machines, people can expand their creative energy and add new varieties. Simply speaking, when people are free from tedious, repetitive, sometimes even dangerous work, work efficiency will undoubtedly be improved. As a result, people can spare more time to do what they want and pursue what they dream of, which is the premise of creativity. Moreover, creativity stems primarily from knowledge and thinking. Once people have the opportunity to do more thinking and learning, their intelligence would be enhanced rather than weakened. Although artificial intelligence is the exhibition of peoples high degree of creative power, it should be noted that it is like a double-edged sword. The sensible choice is to embrace its advantages and cope with the problems it has aroused. This is what an advanced and rational society should be like.说明：以上答案仅供考生估分参考使用，最终答案以星火英语出版的专四全真试卷（10套最新真题2008-2017+新题型听力特训8套题+新题型阅读特训8套题+新题型语法词汇、完形填空、写作特训）专四真题详解+标准预测（10套最新真题2008-2017+5套标准预测试卷+10套新题型听力+20篇新题型写作+2000词卡片）中的为准。
