4 Surprising Ways Artificial Intelligence will Empower Consumers

4 Surprising Ways Artificial Intelligence will Empower Consumers

Ever wonder what makes Siri search the items inside the iPhone and on the web by recognizing your voice? How does Google listening work?

Artificial Intelligence and data science have already infused in this consumer-oriented generation, but we have not realized it yet. It has been quite a while that natural language processing, speech recognition, and gesture recognition system took over the market with their all new features, but what are the new things in AI that are yet to come? Few amazing transformations are:
  • Retailing sector to become AI-ready
  • Voice Recognition will change the game
  • Search engines to become smarter
  • Machine learning to bring revolutionary changes
Recently we got to learn about a verbal spat between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg over the probable risk and opportunities brought by AI. Believe it or not, but we already accustomed to Artificial Intelligence and probably waiting to witness jaw-dropping inventions.

Some of AI inventions we have known till yet are:

Machine Learning
A branch of AI that equips machines with cognitive intelligence to make decisions

Natural Language Processing
An invention that lets the machine fetch output by decoding the command given in human voice

Neural Network
A system that imitates human brain to improvise the existing systems

Let us find out what else we can expect in future in AI?

Retail to get skyrocketing advancements

Imagine if you visit an apparel store and a virtual reality helps you wear the clothes of your choice and decide if it looks good on you. Also, what if a consultant or an assistant recommends various attires as per your choice? This is actually going to turn into reality as retailers are collaborating with AI firms to analyze the hidden customer patterns and uncover the ways in which they can be used to personalize the shopping experience of customers.

Voice Recognition to play a major part

It would not be too much to say that voice recognition has been the most popular invention AI has given to modern consumers. However, in coming years voice recognition is going to play a major part in advancing the e-commerce applications in a plethora of ways. Till now you had to manually open the store and browse through the categories, however, the e-commerce apps will get smarter by deploying voice recognition systems that will browse the categories with voice commands. All you will have to do is command the category you want to explore and the app will take you there. Interesting right?

Complex queries to be processed

At times we put a query in the search engine and it fetches different outcomes that we didn't expect at all. Like the one shown below:

Complex queries to be processed

This is where search engines were lacking till now as they were not able to process the complex queries rich in text. However, with the advent of artificial intelligence, the search tools now will be able to understand the context and find the most suitable answers as per the query. Not just this, but search engines are improvising its algorithms to fetch the relative outcomes too. For example, you search 'running' it would suggest shoes compatible for that purpose.

Machine Learning to learn new things

Ever since the news of IBM Watson running the US Open Championship in collaboration with US Tennis Association in the year 2016, it has left the world wondering how far machines have come.

IBM invented a new concept called "cognitive concierge" equipped with Watson's AI capabilities, which was to help the attendees communicate with Watson for common questions and find the useful reply. The natural language classifier embedded in Watson helps it converse with human and we can definitely expect many more events to be conducted with the help of Watson in not-so-distant future.

Not just this, but Watson has also designed and edited a trailer for a movie called Morgan (Horror movie) by getting trained for multiple horror movies without human intervention.

No wonder a few years from now and you will be able to control all your devices and appliances with just one command from your mouth. AI has come a long way since its inception and with its continuous improvement, we can definitely expect AI to utilize closely in our daily lives in the coming years in ways we have never imagined before.
