Artificial Intelligence : New Era

Everyone knows about recently held Google I/O 2018 event. We saw many interesting features of upcoming android version and its upcoming apps which uses Artificial Intelligence in vast amount, or we can say the whole system is based on Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.

AI and machine learning

In this era of AI our smartphone and computers can do almost everything for us! Like remembering stuffs and reminding them on the right time. Keeping notes, texting someone or ordering something online. All your tasks is done by virtual personal assistants like Siri, Alexa, Cortana or Google Assistant.

CEO at Google, Mr. Sundar Pichai just elaborated that how google assistant can make a phone call for us in background while we are busy doing our other tasks. If you haven't seen that video yet, here it is.



  
You can see that your personal assistant is making a phone call to book an appointment to a beauty parlor and that pretty good. It makes cleverer decisions by itself and helps us doing stuff for us. There is also another example that didn't go very well. So the assistant does not make any decision and leaves that task up to its master.

A game changer

So, this is the era. This is the AI. And this is just the beginning of this era. There's just a trailer to the AI edge. There'll be more system and devices implemented on AI and ML. Possibility is even that AI and ML could steal your job and make you jobless. Yes, that is possible.AI will be a large game changer for the technical field. Slowly we will see AI replacing your jobs and eating out your wages and salaries.

What should be done?

In this rising era of AI we must prepare ourselves for this game changing battle. Try to learn AI and machine learning. it is better to create the system, instead of watching it eating our jobs. Be a master, develop stuff related to AI and be the part of this rising era of the AI.

Interesting facts about Humanoid Robot Sophia

Since the evolution of mankind, we are developing new technologies every-day. We developed phones, smartphones, and then comes the hot and trending humanoid robots. Mankind created and developed many humanoid robots that act like a human.

One of them is Robot Sophia, who looks like a human, additionally, she can think and like a human being, also she can think like a human. Sophia is very advanced developed Artificial Intelligence technology. Sophia has AI which means artificial intelligence.

AI is human developed technology in which we develop machines that have its own intelligence and can make decisions on themselves. This is how Sophia looks like.



AI field is used in most tech fields like an army, space research stations, industrial fields etc. Sophia uses the same AI which makes her think and act like a human being. After her appearance at “AI for good” at Geneva, she has become a darling for media and people. Sophia is developed by Dr. Davis Hanson at Hanson Robotics. She is an evolving AI robot who interviewed media and answered questions related to AI for good and other many questions. Plus, she is the first ever robot to hold a citizenship of any nation. She is a citizen of Saudi Arabia and has more rights to do stuff than a normal Saudi Arabian woman. She is way smarter than other AI robots till date. According to a well-reputed news website, Sophia is the best chatbot with a human face. Sophia can answer questions, she learns from the user input, she learns when people have a conversation with her, she is programmed accordingly to do so. 

Now come to the technical aspects, she is a robot with a human face, she has a camera in her eyes that makes her see the world. She gives answers to pre-programmed questions now but will be able to more questions and make us feel amazed at her all abilities that make us a human being. She is programmed to walk with help of several algorithms, she can follow faces, recognize them individually and she even can sustain eye contacts with us.

Sophia is modeled after an actress Audrey Hepburn. Sophia is able to recognize faces with visual data processing algorithm. She can hear our speech and process and recognize our speech through Google Chrome Voice Recognition technology and other tools. Sophia answers our questions which are shared on the cloud network and allows input and outputs analyzed with blockchain technology.




Sophia even has 7 siblings which are developed by Dr. Hanson. One of her siblings is BINA48, and interestingly, BINA48 even passed a college course on philosophy and love. Her more siblings are Albert Einstein Hubo, Han, Jules, Professor Einstein, Philip K. Dick Android, Zeno, and Joey Chaotic which have the same creator Dr. Hanson.  He also said that Sophia will eventually be able to provide her services in healthcare, customer service, and education.

He also added that their labs are constantly working on to improve Sophia’s human interaction and she’ll be able to answer more complex human questions and get proved as a good example of an AI robot. Let’s just hope that more and more AI robot gets developed and lead to a better lifestyle for all human being.
