Machine Learning and AI trends for 2018: What to Expect?

It seems that we've already seen more than we were ready to VR in video games, IoT in medicine and smart cities being brought to life. We are really close to living in some sort of sci-fi so it's a good idea to have a look at the most possible and promising machine learning and AI trends for the upcoming 2018 and ask ourselves if we are ready for them. Healthcare is one of the biggest and most crucial industries in the world so no wonder it's the one that is heavily using the latest technologies -- because it's the matter of life and death. First of all, due to artificial intelligence and work with Big Data, a scientist will soon get the opportunity to prevent certain diseases, like cancer. This can be done by analyzing patient's history and all their records so AI will be able to understand the mechanism of disease, thus enabling doctors to be proactive instead of reacting.
