"The use of deep learning and visual experiences has been a key focus for us," … leader of artificial intelligence and head of data engineering at KPMG.

Artificial Intelligence and Big Data have penetrated every business process and are increasingly used in modern systems to improvise the process to give a better user experience. AI and Big Data together work smartly, significantly, more efficiently, and with more accuracy than the traditional and former business processes and systems do. AI has impacted everyday lives from better user experience to the greatest user experience. Such as predicting human behaviors while reading and identifying vulnerabilities in human habits, even using them to influence human decision-making. AI and its capabilities are simply mind-blowing!

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in our daily lives was predicted in Hollywood movies decades ago and began to come true with Siri, Alexa and smartphones. According to a white paper released recently by Mitchell International, parent company of NAGS, artificial intelligence use in automotive claims is growing fast as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which made a transition to digital essential to decrease the spread of the virus from human to human. "As insurers embrace AI and its ability to improve the claims process, they are devoting a larger portion of their technology budgets to AI-enabled solutions. In fact, according to one report, 87% of carriers are now spending in excess of $5 million annually on these technologies, which is more than in the banking and retail sectors," Mitchell reported. Although new to the auto insurance industry, the science behind AI has existed for more than 50 years.

Amazon has launched its long-awaited home robot, named Astro, that can autonomously drive around your home packed with cameras and a screen. Astro can map your home's layout, recognise objects and check on loved ones and pets remotely using a series of cameras and a display on its front, featuring a set of expressive animated eyes. The robot can handle video calls, recognising you and coming to find you when someone calls, and provides all the features of Alexa on wheels. But Dave Limp, head of Amazon's devices and services, said "customers don't just want Alexa on wheels so we've embodied it with a unique persona that's all its own". Moving at up to one metre a second, Astro can also act as a security robot.

Amazon announced a slew of new connected devices today, and with those came some new Alexa features that users will be able to take advantage of. The most interesting, by far, are the new privacy features coming to the latest Alexa devices. Soon, US customers can choose to have all of their voice commands processed on their Alexa devices. That means these audio clips won't be sent to the cloud and they'll be automatically deleted after the Alexa device processes them. The online retailer has received much scrutiny over the years when it comes to the privacy implications of its smart speakers and displays. Back in 2019, Amazon added a toggle that let users opt-out of having their voice recordings and message transcripts "manually reviewed," and before that, the company added an option to delete your entire voice history with one command.

According to Amazon, this voice assistant will give you access to interactive storytelling experiences and entertainment featuring Disney characters. You can also play games and access jokes set in the Disney world.

In media news today, 'The View' co-host Ana Navarro reveals her COVID tests were false positives, CNN anchor Chris Cuomo stays silent on his own sexual harassment scandal, and The New Yorker hosts a climate change extremist who promotes property damage Meghan McCain spent years irking liberals as the token conservative on "The View," but managed to continue bothering the left on Sunday simply by showing up on NBC's "Meet the Press." McCain walked away from "The View" last month because she enjoyed settling down in Washington, D.C. with her family since the coronavirus pandemic and didn't want to upend her life again for the New York-based program. Meghan McCain irked liberals by appearing on NBC's "Meet the Press." Former CNN anchor Soledad O'Brien responded to video of Todd welcoming McCain to the program with a tweet that scolded "Meet the Press" for offering her a platform. "This young lady is not her father (though she likes to name him frequently). She lies on camera, she has zero value as a guest, certainly she's go no credibility as a political talking head. And yet, Meet the Press fails by allowing her to lie on their air," O'Brien tweeted.
