This technology works all over the world. Another story of a farmer from Andhra Pradesh decided to wait for sowing the seeds while all others were busy following the herd. He only followed the advisory and sowed it after he received directions. The farmer Chinnavenkateswarlu achieved 30% higher yield said, "I have three acres of land and sowed groundnut based on the sowing recommendations provided. My crops were harvested on October 28 last year, and the yield was about 1.35 ton per hectare. Advisories provided for land preparation, sowing, and need-based plant protection proved to be very useful to me."

As technology advances relentlessly, the real prospect of robot wars is apparently almost upon us. The 2015 book Ghost Fleet, written by Peter Singer and August Cole, lays out a vision of a future war between China and the United States, and the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in that hypothetical military conflict is not small. Drones of various types not only carry out surveillance in this novel but also play crucial roles in communications, logistics, as well as in high-intensity combat. In one memorable vignette, two American unmanned surface vehicles "following an algorithm developed from research done on the way sand tiger sharks cooperated in their hunting" successfully prosecute a Chinese nuclear submarine. Strategists familiar with the U.S. Navy's Sea Hunter program know that this ambition is not especially far-fetched. Yet, what if that book understates China's ambitions to apply AI to the future battlefield, and to undersea warfare, in particular?

It seems artificial intelligence (AI) is the way to go for businesses and corporate. Going by a recent study, as many as 90 per cent of executives feel AI will have a positive impact on their company's growth. The findings are a part of the study entitled, "Intelligent Economies: AI's Transformation of Industries and Society, that explores the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) on markets and societies across the developed and developing worlds. The study, conducted by The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) and sponsored by Microsoft, surveyed more than 400 senior executives from various industries, including financial services, healthcare and life sciences, manufacturing, retail and the public sector. The survey was conducted in eight markets: France, Germany, Mexico, Poland, South Africa, Thailand, the UK and the US.

Machine learning, artificial intelligence and Autonomous services will require less human intervention in protecting enterprise infrastructure in the near future. Akshay Aggarwal, Director, Solution Specialist, Oracle India tells Brian Pereira how cyber security is evolving. And no, this is not straight out of a science fiction movie. All this is reality today. DC: The volume of security breaches is so high that it is not possible for humans to monitor and contain every single attack.

A few years ago I had written an article about how technology is literally obliterating jobs and how to skill yourself up for this new economy. In this article I want to provide you with a renewed peek into what I believe is the road to success, should you want to be part of the artificial intelligence economy - which some are equating to the revolution nearly 120 years ago with electricity. But first, let's take a look at what digital disruption or the increased pervasiveness of new technology is doing to the job market. Last year, AP (Associated Press) ran a 3-part big story on "Technology and permanent job destruction," very real and a very chilling narrative of what is happening in the job market right now. We have never witnessed at jobless economic recovery ever!

China is beating the US in AI and Europe's AI experts are challenging both US and China, but a new contender for AI leadership is rapidly emerging. The startup nation of Israel is targeting today's hottest tech sector by deploying its expertise in cutting-edge data analysis, software and hardware engineering talent, and proven entrepreneurial skills. According to analyst Daniel Singer, Israeli AI startups (using technologies such as machine learning, deep learning, computer vision, natural language processing, robotics, and speech recognition) have raised close to $2 billion in 2017, an increase of 70% over 2016, and have already raised $1.5 billion this year. An average of 140 startups have been created annually over the last 5 years and there are now over 950 active Israeli startups utilizing or developing AI technologies. It's good to be a member of this exclusive club.
