Opinion Artificial intelligence: potential to shape future

#artificialintelligence

There are a lot of questions that come with the possibilities of artificial intelligence. If AI machines can behave like humans, they can begin to replace their jobs as well. Unless regulations were put into place to prevent AIs from taking jobs, there would be few big businesses willing to hire human workers for specific work. There are examples of work that has already been replaced by robots and as long as technology grows, artificial intelligence will continue to as well. Fortunately, many scientists and engineers believe AI will never be able to replicate human judgement.


ZhongAn turns to big data and AI to shape future of car insurance

#artificialintelligence

Big data and artificial intelligence are at the heart of a platform announced last week by ZhongAn Online Casualty and Property Insurance, China's first internet-only insurer. "Mobile internet and digital technologies are transforming the car industry. So the car insurance industry must change as well," Wang Yu, head of car insurance at ZhongAn, said in an interview with the South China Morning Post. The platform will include companies along the car value chain and provide a one-stop shop for buyers and owners. "Imagine shopping for your car and you can take care of matters related to car purchase insurance, loans, after purchase services, investment management and usage-based car insurance (UBI) during one visit," said Wang.
