Dive Deep into Artificial Intelligence



Concept of Artificial Intelligence is coming up as the biggest innovation in the next few years. As per Ray Kurzweil, “Artificial Intelligence will reach human levels by around 2029. Follow that out further to, say, 2045, we will have multiplied the intelligence, the human biological machine intelligence of our civilization a billion-fold”.

In the early 20th century, it began with the “heartless” Tin man from the Wizard of Oz, who familiarized the world with the concept of artificially intelligent robots through science fiction and continued with the humanoid robot that impersonated Maria in Metropolis. By the 1950s, we had scientists, philosophers, and mathematicians who came up with the concept of Artificial Intelligence assimilated in their minds. One such young enthusiast was Alan Turing, a young British polymath. He explored and analyzed the mathematical possibility of Artificial Intelligence and suggested that humans use available information in order to solve problems and make decisions, so why can’t machines do the same thing?

Artificial Intelligence is gaining popularity at a quicker pace; altering the way we live and interact, as well as improve customer experience. There is a lot of buzz around the world regarding the impact of Artificial Intelligence, let us understand what actually Artificial Intelligence is!

The first thing people think about when they hear about AI is Robots, but the theory behind is based on the machine learning. Artificial Intelligence is the field of computer science that is associated with the concept of machines thinking like humans to perform tasks such as learning, problem-solving, planning, reasoning and identifying patterns.
In simple words, if a machine starts working like humans, it is known as Artificial Intelligence. It refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think like human and mimic their actions. Unlike general acuity, AI is not limited to just IT or technology industry; instead, it is being extensively spreading in areas such as medical, business, manufacturing, and education. Voice recognition, Alexa, Siri, Echo, Google assistant, etc. are some of the examples of AI which people have already adopted to make their life easy!!

AI is generally categorized into two types:
  • Weak Artificial Intelligence
  • Strong Artificial Intelligence

Weak AI is a system which focuses on narrow tasks or can say designed to carry out a particular job. Weak AI includes video games, or personal assistant like Alexa, Siri, Echo, etc. They are smart enough to recognize your voice and answer any question you ask to them.
Strong AI is a system which focuses on performing the tasks skillful and flexible as humans do. They are considered to be more complex and can handle higher processes like humans do. One of the examples of strong AI is self driving cars, hospital operating rooms, etc.

There is much more to come in the coming years with more improvements, development, and governance and will be considered as AI Innovations!

Artificial Intelligence and 4th Industrial Revolution

Image
We see the fourth industrial revolution altering the digital, physical, and organic universe. It is crafting novel possibilities and promises of an innovative future, accelerating the social aids of machine learning and AI while safeguarding value, confidentiality, transparency, responsibility and social influence. According to Daniel Riedel, CEO of New Context , a consulting business focused on lean security: “The true wonder of the fourth industrial revolution won’t be the data produced; it will be intelligent machines’ capacity to analyse those data and communicate their findings within a network of similarly intelligent machines. Then, each connected machine will act, altering its processes to be more efficient and communicating those changes back to its network.” Therefore, we can say, the Fourth Industrial Revolution is not just a forecast of the future, but also a source of inspiration. From Microsoft and Google to Amazon and Facebook, pioneers of the world's ...

The Rise of the Gig Economy

Image
Gig Economy is a kind of work culture which is going to trend this decade! This is a terminology which reconstructs the distorted notion of the word ‘JOB’, assuming to take control over work very soon! Let us understand what actually Gig Economy is. It is a  free market framework wherein impermanent positions are regular and experts from all over the world collaborate with each other on project basis, for short-term engagements. For a few, the Gig Economy is essentially an approach to get additional money. And for others, however, it's a method to escape from the corporate world for good. Gig Economy, in this case, provides an opportunity and pleasure that working for themselves can give. Independent work sounds incredible in principle: not anymore irrational supervisor, futile gatherings, or working your life away to satisfy another person's vision. But outsourcing is also not effortless. Finding out the relevant reso...
