The Rise Of The Machines....! Applications of Artificial Intelligence.

Welcome back, folks! Let us understand AI with the least Jargon.

Basic Recap?(We'll keep repeating this until it comes naturally to us :) - 'AI helps to build intelligent machines that perform tasks that would otherwise require 'Human Intelligence

In our previous edition, we discussed the four types of AI.

Today, let us discuss the applications of AI.

1??Computer Vision:

Computer vision is a field of artificial intelligence that focuses on teaching computers to interpret and understand visual information, such as images and videos.

Essentially, it's about giving computers the ability to "see" and understand the world in a way that's similar to how humans do.

e.g. An example of computer vision would be a self-driving car. The car's cameras capture images of the road and the car's computer uses computer vision algorithms to understand what it is seeing. This might include detecting traffic lights, recognizing other cars and pedestrians, and understanding the layout of the road.

2??Speech Recognition:

Speech recognition is a technology that allows computers to understand and interpret spoken language. It is also known as "speech-to-text" or "voice recognition." Essentially, it's a way for people to interact with computers and other devices using their voice, rather than typing or using a mouse and keyboard.

e.g. An example of speech recognition would be a virtual assistant on a smartphone, such as Apple's Siri or Amazon's Alexa.

3??Social Media:

Platforms like Instagram and Facebook use artificial intelligence to personalize what users see on their feeds, identifying interests to recommend similar content in order to keep them engaged.

AI models are also trained to recognize certain keywords, symbols, or phrases in multiple languages to quickly remove posts with hate speech, for example.AI in social media is also used through emojis in predictive text, smart filters that identify and remove spam messages, facial recognition that automatically tags users’ friends in photos, and smart replies for quick message responses.

4??Used in customer service, chatbots (or chat robots) impersonate human employees with conversational styles of customer representatives by using natural language processing (NLP). These chatbots can answer questions that need very detailed answers and even learn from bad reviews for maximum efficiency.

ChatGPT is an example of an AI chatbot.

This is just a gist of AI applications and a very basic overview of how it can be used. Is it the rise of machines? Will we tame them?

Until next time :). See you!
