Artificial Intelligence and its advantages
The ability of a computer program to learn and think is called the artificial intelligence. The term artificial intelligence was invented by John McCarthy in the year 1950. According to him, "The science and engineering of making intelligent machines" is called artificial intelligence.
The artificial intelligence has become one of the most emerging technologies of the 21st century. Everything that involves a program that performs something that we would normally think would rely on the intelligence of a human can be considered as the artificial intelligence.
There are many advantages of artificial intelligence.Sum of them are described below
1) Reduction in human error:
Artificial intelligence can decrease human error by a huge amount.We ,the human beings can make mistakes from time to time because of which the phrase "human error" was born. However, if humans can program a computers properly,the computers can perform the same tasks as humans with more precision and less error.
Example:
The majority of human error has been reduced in weather forecasting with the help of artificial intelligence.
2) Takes risks instead of humans:
This is one of the biggest advantages of artificial intelligence. Many risky limitations of humans can be overcome with the help of artificial intelligence by developing an AI robot. AI robots in turn can do the risky things for us. Either someone wants to go to Mars,wants to mine coal and oil or wants to explore the deepest parts of ocean artificial intelligence can be used effectively in any kind of natural or man made disasters.
Example:
At the time of chernobyl nuclear power plant extersion in Ukraine there were no AI power robots that could have helped us to minimise the effect of radiation by controlling the fire in early stages, as an human went close to the core was dead in a matter of minutes. K eventually pode send and boron from helicopters from a mere distance.
Thus,artificial intelligence robots can be used in such such situations where intervention can be hazardous.
3) Digital assistance:
Artificial intelligence has helped human beings to use digital assistants to interact with other people which saves the need for human resources. Many different websites on the internet use such digital assistants which help users or their customers to provide the things that they want. Users can chat with them about what they want and what is their requirement. Some chat bots are designed in such a way that it has become hard to determine that we are chatting with a chat bot or a human being.
Example:
Some of the highly advanced organisations around the globe use digital assistant to interact with their clients. Such organisations have a customer support team that needs to clarify the doubts and queries of the customers. These organisations have set up a voice bot a chat bot with the help of artificial intelligence which enables the customers to chat with them according to their problems or queries. Most of these organisations work using their websites and mobile applications.
4) Help in repetitive tasks:
In our daily routine we perform many tasks which repeat number of times and thus consume a lot of time for example verifying certain documents for errors,sending emails and many other things. We usually find such tasks very boring and increasingly difficult. We can productively automate these mundane tasks and even remove boring tasks with the help of artificial intelligence which can save us a lot of time and increase our creativity.
Example:
In banks ,we see many verifications of documents to get lone which is a repetitive task for the owner of the bank. With the help of AI cognitive automation the owner can speed up the process of verifying the documents by which both the customers and owner will be benefited.
5) 24/7 Availability:
With the help of artificial intelligence many tasks can be performed 24 hours a day and 365 days a year. However,humans cannot work for so long. According to a research an average human can work for 4 to 6 hours a day excluding the breaks. Humans are built in such a way that they need some time for refreshment and getting prepared for the next task. However,on the other hand an AI robot never gets tired and does not require any kind of break and can work 24/7.
Example:
Many helpline centres and educational institutions are getting many queries and issues 24/7 which can be handled effectively using AI robots.
6) Faster decision Making:
Using Artificial intelligence along with other technologies many machines can be built which can take decisions faster than human beings and carry out actions quicker. Since robots will have no emotions,so they will take decisions without taking emotions into account and hence their decisions will be more precise and they will make decisions faster than human beings.
Example:
Almost everyone has played chess games on PC. It is almost impossible to beat CPU in the hard mode because of the AI behind that game. The AI model of chess game is designed in such a manner that it takes best possible steps in a very short time according to the situation.
7) Daily Applications:
Nowadays ,we use many AI applications such as Apple's Siri, Window's cortana,Google's ok Google and Amazon's Alexa and many more. Whether we want to search a location,take a selfie,make a phone call or reply to a mail such applications can be frequently used.
Example:
Almost about 20 years ago when someone wanted to go to a a place he didn't knew about he had to ask to a person who had already gone there for directions but now this task is quite simple with the help of OK Google assistant. With the help of AI OK Google assistant can show you all the directions of the place you want to visit within few seconds.
8) New inventions:
The artificial intelligence has enabled human beings to invent many new technologies in almost every domain to help humans solve majority of the complex problems.
Example:
In the field of medical science, many new technologies have been invented over the past few years. For example, the AI has enabled the doctors to predict breast cancer in the women at earlier stages using advanced AI based technologies.
Summary:
Over the past few years the artificial intelligence has dramatically improved the efficiencies of our workplaces. The artificial intelligence has eased the human life in almost every professional sector.
Sin dudas la inteligencia artificial nos da muchísimos beneficios y nos aporta ciertas ventajas que nosotros los seres humanos por esta simple condición no podemos brindar, más sin embargo observo con mucha preocupación que el uso de la misma pueda escapar de nuestras manos, debido a que pudiera llegar a emplearse en cosas que vayan a atentar contra nuestra especie, sonará tonto pero no descabellado.
