Brands need a smarter way to connect with customers, which is where AI-enabled digital shopping assistants like AskSid AI come in. In discussions on digital shopping assistants, two concepts keep standing out – Speech Recognition vs Natural Language Processing (NLP).

A hundred years have passed since the Bipedal Event of 2065... An international ban on unofficial use of super artificial intelligence is enacted as the Earth adjusts to life with non-human races (now called bipeds despite humans sharing the classification). One day, while sifting through an abandoned government warehouse in space, Winston, a punk canine biped, finds Grant, a programmer from New York who's been cryogenically frozen since the 2030s.

The last few years have seen the rise of transformer deep learning architectures to build natural language processing (NLP) model families. The adaptations of the transformer architecture in models such as BERT, RoBERTa, T5, GPT-2, and DistilBERT outperform previous NLP models on a wide range of tasks, such as text classification, question answering, summarization, and text generation. These models are exponentially growing larger in size from several million parameters to several hundred billion parameters. As the number of model parameters increases, so does the computational infrastructure that is necessary to train these models. This requires a significant amount of time, skill, and compute resources to train and optimize the models.

However, POS software development today also means integration with APIs, which significantly simplifies data analysis and unveils a range of opportunities to improve customer experience, streamline inventory management, and optimize staffing. Inventory management is a rarely exciting yet extremely important task that requires precision and needs to be done routinely. POS software can help businesses automate and optimize it.
