There are plenty of headlines about how artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming everything from smartphones to our cars, but understanding how exactly to benefit from AI as an investor can be a little harder. AI encompasses a lot of different technologies, like natural language processing (when Google Assistant understands what you're saying), machine vision (semi-autonomous cars knowing the difference between a lamppost and a pedestrian), and even suggesting the next show you should watch (although if an AI suggests HBO's Westworld, you should be suspicious). All of these examples are more than just algorithms that make decisions. They're computing systems that actually learn while they're working. To help you get started in your AI investments, here are five things you should know before jumping into the space.

You will learn the main data structure in R, Managing Data with R, Exploring and Understanding Data in R (exploring numeric variable, categorical variable and relationship between variables). Moreover, audience learn how to use some of the main packages in R. You will learn different types of machine learning algorithms and how they work and how they can solve different type of real life problems. At the end of this module you will able to choose right algorithm for right problem.

And people say Elon Musk us the real life Tony Stark. So what can this Jarvis do?

This has been the year of the chatbot. Siri opened up to developers recently. The Facebook Messenger bots arrived. The Slack App Store continues to evolve quickly with hundreds of bots. Chatbots have been in many ways disappointing to me, but they are an important step in the evolution of conversational technology.

Mark Zuckerberg has a new housemate: Jarvis, an artificial intelligence assistant he created this year that can control appliances, play music, recognise faces and, perhaps most impressively, entertain his toddler. The Facebook founder spent 100 hours putting together the virtual assistant -- named after the artificial intelligence system in Iron Man which understands spoken commands as well as text messages, he wrote in a 3000-word Facebook post Monday. The virtual assistant texts Zuckerberg images of visitors who stop by during the day, and opens the front door for those it recognises. It can also tell when Zuckerberg's 1-year-old daughter, Max, wakes up "so it can start playing music or a Mandarin lesson," he wrote. In a tongue-in-cheek video he posted on Facebook Tuesday, Zuckerberg offers an example of Jarvis at work: "Max woke up a few minutes ago. I'm entertaining her," the virtual assistant (voiced by Morgan Freeman) tells Zuckerberg, before turning his attention to the toddler.

Data science, advanced machine learning and artificial intelligence will be centre stage technologies shaping business in 2017 and beyond. That's according to analyst firm, Gartner, which predicts that enterprise will see "intelligence everywhere" as new software-based systems, which are programmed to learn and adapt, permeate businesses within the next three to five years. As outlined by Gartner vice president and fellow, David Cearley, these intelligent trends will intertwine to form a'digital mesh', blurring physical and digital workspaces. Artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced machine learning (ML) are intelligent machines that can understand, learn and operate autonomously. "Applied AI and ML give rise to a spectrum of intelligent implementations, including physical devices such as robots, autonomous vehicles and apps and services such as virtual personal assistants and smart advisors," Cearley said.

This year, many of us let a stranger into our homes and ended up loving it. I am, of course, talking about voice-activated artificial-intelligence assistants. The success of Amazon's Alexa, the launch of Google's Home, and Mark Zuckerbrg's public quest to build his own digital butler all demonstrate that conversational interfaces, which we predicted would be a breakthrough technology in 2016, are here to stay. Amazon's Echo smart speaker, which is a conduit for the company's Alexa AI assistant, was officially available to all in the U.S. from 2015. But this year it also went on sale in the U.K. and Germany, and estimates suggest that it sold as many as two million units in the first nine months of 2016.

You don't have to be a Go champion to have artificial intelligence change your game. You get in your car, and your Apple iPhone tells you what traffic looks like where you're going--before you ask. We're all on the road with Tesla's self-driving cars, which are redefining what driving means. The artificial intelligence calendar assistant Amy emails three of your friends to figure out a meeting time that works for everyone--and nails it. Thankfully, chatting with Amazon's Alexa is a lot more entertaining than, say, would be Hal, the fictional artificial intelligence from the film 2001: A Space Odyssey.

The good: Easy setup, comfortable, Automatically pauses music when you remove a bud The bad: Expensive, Looks awkward when you're wearing them, Limited playback controls Who should buy: Apple fans willing to splurge on tangle-free earbuds When Apple launched the iPhone 7 this year, one controversial move stood out: The Cupertino, Calif.'s flagship smartphone no longer features a headphone jack. Instead, users connect older headphones to the phone's port via an adapter, use the included earbuds that connect the same way, or opt for wireless Bluetooth headphones. Using Bluetooth headphones, however, can be a pain. Pairing them can be a nightmare, and signals sometimes drop in the middle of a call or a song. Apple's attempt to fix those problems is now available in the form of AirPods, $159 wireless headphones that, thanks to the company's unique technology, instantly pair with a nearby iPhone. AirPods also have sensors allowing them to automatically mute a song when one bud is removed, while two taps on the side activate Siri, Apple's digital assistant.
