How AI has Turned Our Lives Around?

Artificial Intelligence is one of the most trending topics in today’s date. With the adoption of AI and Machine Learning by tech-industry leaders like Google, Facebook etc., the rest of the players in the industry are bound to follow the trend in order to survive. However, some were reluctant because they felt AI, at some point, will completely replace humans, which means lack of employment opportunities in generations that follow.

Whatever the case may be, the proliferation of Artificial intelligence has affected our lives hugely. And for obvious reasons, this side of technology is seeing immense R&D and investment opportunities. As a result, the current market capitalization of the Global AI Market is nearly $2.4 billion USD, which is expected to reach a whopping $59 billion by 2025.

But apart from financial and capital stats; the real question is “what is it that AI is giving us”? “How exactly it is changing our lives for good”?
Well, here’s how:

Home-Automation

One of the most notorious applications of artificial intelligence is Home-Automation. Coming home to dried & washed clothes, spotless floor, optimum air-conditioning, hot supper and what not; Home-Automation works like magic and for an average person, it is no less than a boon.

Basically, a group of appliances connected to a common network, AI in Home-Automation learns about your living habits, and accordingly, enables appliances to take smart and informed decisions.
According to a report published by ‘statista.com’, the Home-Automation market size would reach $21 billion by 2020.

Data Analytics

We shouldn’t be ashamed in accepting that AI has triumphed human intelligence. In a match of strategy board-game ‘Go’ between world champion Ke Jie and Google’s AI program AlphaGo, Google AI beat the Chinese wizard by a fair margin. In another match of Poker, two AI programs successfully registered conquest over professionals in the same. These events conform to the fact that AI is capable of revealing hidden patterns and behaviors that humans can’t. Big Data Analytics is another area where AI has proved its mettle. Complex problem-solving, compound equations and much more is a matter of seconds for AI-based programs. So, in a way, we can say AI has given us lesser puzzles to solve and more time to achieve peak productivity.

Better Digital Support

Installed with AI at heart, chatbots need no introduction. Not only have they given us a highly interactive way of sharing desired data with the businesses; they have opened the doors for better ways of addressing our grievances. Consequently, we receive idiot-proof customer support that is faster and much more efficient at comprehending complaints.

Another use of AI is to analyze our behavior through data conscientiously sent by us via our personal devices to generate user-specific suggestions even before we need it. In short, the data sent out by us is used, by AI for us.

Medicine & Healthcare

The idea of a machine performing surgery on humans has been intimidating enough for years. But soon as it became a reality, we finally know that AI is precise enough to do this as well. Evidently, in May 2006, the first AI doctor-conducted unassisted robot heart surgery was carried out on a 34-year old male, which was successful enough to give innovators the confidence to continue their research in the field.

In May 2016, AI Robot STAR operated a pig, unassisted, using its own conscience, which proved to be a huge success in the field of automated medical surgery, ushering us into an entirely new era of medicine.

Additionally, AI is already deployed in maintaining drug surplus and inventory in western countries, just like it does for the retail sector.
