Artificial Intelligence: Everything You Want to Know

#artificialintelligence

By the end of this 10-minute read, you will hopefully have a comprehensive overview of Artificial Intelligence (AI). We'll try our best to give you straightforward and relatable answers on this quite heavy subject. After defining AI and its subfields, we will have a look into the brief history, current use cases, most common fears, and mind-boggling predictions for the future. We encourage you to dig deeper into the 10 great resources we have listed for you at the end of this article. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE HAS BECOME THE NEW BUZZWORD leaving IoT, Big Data, Automation, Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality in shade.


Lawyer-bots are shaking up jobs

#artificialintelligence

Meticulous research, deep study of case law, and intricate argument-building--lawyers have used similar methods to ply their trade for hundreds of years. But they'd better watch out, because artificial intelligence is moving in on the field. As of 2016, there were over 1,300,000 licensed lawyers and 200,000 paralegals in the U.S. Consultancy group McKinsey estimates that 22 percent of a lawyer's job and 35 percent of a law clerk's job can be automated, which means that while humanity won't be completely overtaken, major businesses and career adjustments aren't far off (see "Is Technology About to Decimate White-Collar Work?"). In some cases, they're already here. "If I was the parent of a law student, I would be concerned a bit," says Todd Solomon, a partner at the law firm McDermott Will & Emery, based in Chicago.


When Artificial Intelligence and Social Media Marketing Collide

#artificialintelligence

Both artificial intelligence and social media marketing are getting a lot of attention nowadays because of their huge benefits and growth potential. They are benefiting both businesses and normal people in various ways. The investment has already been growing in the artificial intelligence, and the investment is further expected to grow by around 300%, according to the prediction made by the Forrester. Talking about the social media platforms, more than 2.5 billion people are already using various social media platforms as per the statistic. This is nearly a 1/3 population of the whole planet.


5G to AR: Here are 7 technologies to watch in 2018

@machinelearnbot

USA TODAY's Ed Baig looks at the top Tech trends to watch for in 2018. Visitors walk past a 5G logo during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, on March 1, 2017. Blistering fast wireless networks, digital assistants that are, well, everywhere, and a coming out bash for augmented reality. These and other technologies mentioned here, some of which are already familiar but really just getting started, are worth keeping an eye on in 2018. You can bet we'll also learn about innovations in the months to come that are for now, completely under the radar.


Can Creativity Be Implemented in AI?

#artificialintelligence

Artificial intelligence (AI) takes the power of computing systems to a different level. It is amazing to even think that a computing system can emulate human beings. There are many fantastic examples of AI in various areas of our lives. That said, computing systems are still considered limited in their capabilities because they cannot think creatively like human beings. While AI can process and analyze complex data, it still does not have much prowess in areas that involve abstract, nonlinear and creative thinking.

Births are always interesting affairs. According to some, births are always traumatic-a shock to come from the womb to the world. The birth we give witness to here is that of a new society, the American Association for Artificial Intelligence-AAAI. It has not seemed to me traumatic, but rather almost wholly benign. In a world where not much is benign at the moment, such an event is devoutly to be cherished.

AIpanel discussion at AAAI-84, in which I was one of the panelists, appeared in the Fall, 1985 issue of AI Magazine, since due to some communication gap I wasn't aware that the panel discussion was going to be published and I hadn't had a chance to proofread my section of the transcript. I was rather unhappy when I read the section that contained my remarks: Perhaps because of an accent that would not vanish after 20 years in this country, my remarks were, in significant places, embarrassingly garbled by the transcriber ("the most performed paradigmatic change"?, "AI has been the whole expectation of the problem"?, "Knowledge use invalidities has been the cause of misunderstanding"?), and in other places, the crucial "not" had been omitted or added, completely changing my intended meaning, "not" being generally very unforgiving in this regard (where I had said, "The problem is underestimation of the problems of multiplicity of generic knowledge structures," "is" appears as "isn't;" I am pretty sure I didn't say, "I also believe that faster architectures could do the trick," since at that stage in my talk, I was criticizing the belief that what it takes is faster architectures, while crucial epistemic problems remained unsolved). Perhaps it is best to outline the main points of my panel presentation to make clear what I really said (this time without an accent and slowly): 1. AI has already made significant paradigmatic contributions by fostering the idea of cognition as computation. This notion is bound to have far-reaching consequences to philosophy and psychology. This is a weak theory of mind (or mental architecture) in the sense that it says something about organization, but doesn't make any strong commitment about content.


The First AAAI President's Message

AI Magazine

In this first message to the members of AAAI, AAAI President Allen Newell answers the questions "what are we?" "why did we come into existence?" "how will AAAI conduct itself?" and ends with a few thoughts on the name "artificial intelligence." According to some, births are always traumatic--a shock to come from the womb to the world. The birth we give witness to here is that of a new society, the American Association for Artificial Intelligence--AAAI. It has not seemed to me traumatic, but rather almost wholly benign.


Computer Models of Creativity

AI Magazine

It's an aspect of normal human intelligence, not a special faculty granted to a tiny elite. There are three forms: combinational, exploratory, and transformational. All three can be modeled by AI--in some cases, with impressive results. AI techniques underlie various types of computer art. Whether computers could "really" be creative isn't a scientific question but a philosophical one, to which there's no clear answer.


Artificial Intelligence Will Dominate The Future Of The Market

#artificialintelligence

In the not so distant future, we will have machines capable not only of storing data, but of thinking, feeling, and being as intelligent as the human being. Following the new trends in the information technology market, such as tracking digital transformation, is a key factor for organizations seeking to remain competitive with the great competition in the market. With increasingly advanced and sophisticated resources, technological innovations have computer machines that promise to facilitate the routine of companies, where intelligent machines can perform their activities in an optimized way. We are talking about the trend of the future, a revolutionary technology – Artificial Intelligence (AI). Artificial Intelligence is already part of our everyday life, but many times we do not even notice it.
