Personalizing Artificial Intelligence

Tech companies and start-ups are spending a lot of time these days developing products, refining machine learning and adding personalization capabilities to their smart gadgets. "Almost every product can benefit from AI (Artificial Intelligence), lighting, purification, cleaning--everything that you see in a room needs AI," James Dyson, founder of British tech giant Dyson, said at the launch of their new research facility in Singapore in February. AI is being used everywhere--from headphones, speakers and toothbrushes to robots. Chances are, your next tech purchase could be very intelligent. Kuri, developed by US-based Mayfield Robotics, uses an army of cameras and sensors to roam around your home. It will avoid all obstacles, such as furniture, and its speakers and microphones will allow you to check on parents, children, pets, and home safety in general, from anywhere in the world through your phone.
