Artificial Intelligence: How It Is Influencing Our Life

What is Artificial Intelligence?

The meaning of artificial intelligence depends upon the conditions and situations where it is being deployed. It has different meanings in different walks of life. For example, Business and Medical fields do not have the same application, and thus a different definition of Artificial Intelligence.

 “It is a wide branch of computer science which is concerned with manufacturing small machines that work automatically and can replace human intelligence. Artificial intelligence has multiple approaches and has wide-range applications”.

In the coming days, Artificial intelligence will replace humans in many jobs like driving, making future investment decisions, operating some medical tools and machines, etc. The mentioned jobs and a lot of others will be performed accurately and speedily without causing any loss through Artificial intelligence.

Mathematics is also affected overwhelmed by the application of Artificial intelligence. The complex calculations have become simple and quick to solve now. Artificial intelligence is named as “Actual Idiocracy” in Mathematics. A very famous image recognition system of Google using a simple equation, Y=mx+c also has the application of Artificial intelligence. Although many of us have learned this equation in school days.

In actuality, artificial intelligence takes information and data. It converts this data into a beneficial decision after processing. It looks like an ordinary operation but the speed and accuracy of this process make it extra-ordinary. This accuracy and speed are going to improve our lifestyle in the near future.

What Is the Foreseeable Impact of AI On the Future of Work? 

Artificial intelligence can be foreseen to increase the pace of development in technical fields such as automated assembly lines, combustion-based engineering, complex software development, computer-based documentation, digital communication, etc.

Development and competition between and within many organizations can be predicted easily due to Artificial intelligence. AI will take over many jobs that are currently performed by human beings. But taking it as loss of jobs by the human workforce is a wrong conception. This technological reform brought over by AI requires human beings for initiation and overlooking. Humans will manage and monitor the processes being performed by Artificial intelligence.

Human beings need to increase speed and change the way they work currently. For example, marketers currently perform the analysis to extract the patterns of current trends. In the future, they will have to understand and explain the results taken out from the analysis performed by the AI process. For this purpose, a proper understanding of the limitations of the AI process and what is being represented is necessary. Currently, digital marketing is a trending AI process but it is not going to alleviate the need of humans. It will just increase the efficiency of the process.

Artificial Intelligence Improves Social Media 

Artificial intelligence has improved communication between users and business associates. Let’s take a look at how AI is shaping up different social media outlets.

Twitter:

Twitter is using Artificial intelligence to decrease inappropriate information related to racism or religious sectors. Twitter has taken Artificial intelligence into action to increase the users’ experience. AI is also being used to understand the current trends in the market.

Facebook:

Facebook has over 2 billion users which update their status 293k times per minute. Deep learning technology is helping out Facebook to draw value from such huge data. The base of deep learning technology for Facebook is Torch structure. This structure gives importance to neural networks and deep learning.

Instagram:

Instagram is one of the most popular Social media platforms where AI and big data is deployed to fight bullying and offensive comments. Instagram is now using artificial intelligence to delete hate speech or offensive comments. It is also deriving benefits from AI in advertising the ads.

Chatbots:

  • Scheduling
  • Reminders
  • Media playback
  • Calculations

These are some most common practices of everyday life. Digital assistance also helping human beings with house automation. You can control your lights, thermostat, garage and room doors, alarms, and much more.

Artificial intelligence helps digital assistance to learn automatically from the mistakes. For instance, if an iPhone user tells the digital assistant about any mistake, it will collect the data to learn and not to repeat that mistake automatically. Human-made correction or change in software is not required due to Artificial intelligence.

AI Improves Your Driving Experience

Self-Driving and Parking Vehicles:

Deep learning is a branch of Artificial intelligence. Self-driving and parking vehicles use this subset of AI. Such vehicles sense the space around the vehicle with the help of such technology. Most of the famous car companies such as Toyota, Mercedes, Audi, Tesla, etc. are using such technology in cars.

Improvement in Email Communication Through Artificial Intelligence

Smart Replies in Gmail:

Artificial intelligence benefits humans in communication. Users can reply to an email with simple phrases with just a single click. For example, a user may reply “Yes! I am working on it” or “No I am not”. Users can choose either to reply manually or simply with just one click. This option has simplified email communication.

Smart reply option is available in different forms for a different type of emails. These replies are attached to each email. For example, an email about the game has a different smart reply as compared to a business email.

Email Filters in Gmail:

AI helps Google to make sure that each email reaching you is authentic. Un-authentic emails are not allowed to reach your inbox. Moreover, AI sorts the emails in your inbox into the following categories:

  • Primary
  • Social
  • Promotions
  • Updates
  • Forums
  • Spam

Due to these filters and sorting, the user can easily and quickly find any email. The quicker search results in a quicker reply. Hence, it improves communication between two users. There are four different groups in Gmail for sorting the emails besides the spam email. Spam emails are sent into a different folder.
