AI, as it is also known, continues to be the most keenly observed technology trend. Artificial intelligence these days is directly affecting the work we do and the way we live.
Though still in its early stages, including Machine Learning (its most popular branch), it is being heralded as the technology that is going to change human lives forever. Artificial Intelligence is computer systems built to imitate human intelligence and do tasks such as recognizing images, speech and patterns and also decision making. AI offers the advantage of doing these tasks faster than humans.
Even as far back as 2018, every five out of six Americans was using AI on a daily basis, in various forms such as navigation apps, streaming devices, smartphone personal assistants, ride-sharing apps, home personal assistants, smart home devices. Other uses of AI include scheduling trains, assessing business risks, predict maintenance, improve energy efficiencies etc.
The bad thing, for people fretting over employment, is that studies reveal it will eliminate 73 million jobs by 2030. This is definitely something to watch out for.
