Artificial Intelligence is Disrupting Business

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is an emerging technology that isn't as malicious as old sci-fi movies might suggest. Today's AI is a combination of devices and machines that can interpret instructions and perform routine tasks that don't require a high level of critical thought. As Interesting Engineering states, the degree to which AI has advanced in a short space of time is staggering, being able to do facial recognition and even have conversations with human subjects. Companies are seeing the inherent benefits of employing machines to do most of their repetitive tasks for them as well. Science Daily defines modern AI as the study or design of intelligent systems, that are tasked with perceiving its environment and taking actions, which increases its chance of successfully completing a given task.
