Evaluating the impact of AI: impersonal expressions
When discussing the ethics and impact of new technologies like artificial intelligence, you often need to express subjective opinions.
In Spanish, use impersonal expressions to state your feelings or evaluations about a situation. They follow a simple formula:
es + adjective + que + present subjunctive
Because these expressions state a subjective opinion, emotion, or judgment rather than declaring an objective fact, the verb that follows que must be in the subjunctive.
| It is incredible that artificial intelligence has so much impact. | Es increíble que la inteligencia artificial tenga tanto impacto. |
| It is fantastic that the algorithm analyzes the data so fast! | ¡Es fantástico que el algoritmo analice los datos tan rápido! |
You can use this structure with a wide variety of adjectives to express different types of evaluations, such as imposible (impossible), mejor (better), or fundamental (fundamental).
| It is impossible for artificial intelligence to replace the human. | Es imposible que la inteligencia artificial reemplace al humano. |
| It is better that the computer analyzes that, because it is more efficient. | Es mejor que la computadora analice eso, porque es más eficiente. |
| Is it fundamental that the employee corrects the algorithm's bias? | ¿Es fundamental que el empleado corrija el sesgo del algoritmo? |
