Once AI has transformed into a lifelong-learning system across industries, individual users and big corporations alike will notice its more than dynamic insights. Artificial Intelligence (AI) in 2020 and beyond, with its seemingly limitless potential, is set to transform the world – or is it? To fully embrace and reap the rewards of this futuristic technological trend, industries as far afield as a business forecasting and online gambling security, predictive maintenance and customer service will need to identify a clear strategy of AI's inherent value for each of them.

Voice assistants enable us to issue voice commands to our phones and even smart home devices. We can set alarms using our voice, search for a bookstore on Google, and even turn/off the sound system. Some of the most popular voice assistants include Apple's Siri, Google Assistant, Google Duplex, Amazon's Alexa, Samsung's Bixby, and Microsoft's Cortana. On the other hand, voice assistants recognize human speech using Natural Language Processing (NLP). The speech is then converted to numbers using machine language before a response is formulated and returned. Web services such as Email rely on machine learning algorithms to categorize messages into folders. This is an email filtering process that makes it easier for users to access the most important messages. In this case, the subject of the message is assessed and then the message is sent to the appropriate folder. An instance of this is the Gmail app that uses machine learning to arrange messages into folders such as primary, promotion, social.

DEEP AERO is a forward-looking company that will revolutionize the sale and management of drones using blockchain, AI and machine learning technology. Drones are not commonplace today but are set to change the way we travel, deliver items and grow food. DEEP AERO is preparing for the near future where drones will need their own air management systems to avoid collisions, where the purchases of drones will be made regularly and where drone services will be needed for consumer transport. When the number of drones increases, the main problem that arises is how to provide safety and ensure they don't crash into each other. Drones need a special traffic management system, a similar to the one currently used for planes, which will connect them on a global scale.

As there are currently over 2 billion people around the world possessing no bank account, the Dbrain project could help provide a legal digital identity to both freelance workers interested in AI and businesses in need of AI-based apps.
