10 Surprising Applications of Artificial Intelligence
Are you familiar with the common uses of artificial intelligence (AI) in popular media such as self-driving cars, assistants like Siri or Alexa, and image recognition software? These are just some of the ways that AI is already changing the world we live in. However, AI is impacting our lives in myriad other ways, from the way we shop to the way we do our jobs. Here are 10 surprising applications of artificial intelligence.
1. Preventing Credit Card Fraud
Artificial intelligence is being used to detect fraudulent transactions in real-time. Through machine learning algorithms, it flags any anomalies and can freeze accounts or alert customers when an unusual transaction is detected.
2. Predicting Earthquakes
AI can analyze patterns in seismic data to help forecast earthquakes. With more data and better algorithms, researchers may be able to predict earthquakes with increasing precision, providing vital information to minimize damage and save lives.
3. Improving Recycling
Sorting through discarded waste can be difficult, but AI can improve the process significantly. With its ability to identify materials based on visual cues, waste management companies can definitively identify recyclable items and increase overall recycling rates.
4. Personalized Learning
By using AI in education, students can enjoy more customized recommendations for courses and tutoring, as the AI algorithms analyze student behaviour and personalize their learning experience based on their progress and patterns.
5. Assisting with Healthcare Diagnosis
Through algorithms, physicians can provide accurate diagnostics based on a patient multitudes of clinical data in real-time with reasonable predictive power.
6. Enhancing Mental Health Diagnosis
AI algorithms analyze brain activity and markers to help diagnose and offer treatments for mental illness.
7. Managing Finances
In the financial world, incorporating AI can provide accurate financial assessment, improve investment decision-making, and process data to predict consumer financial behavior and recommend investment opportunities.
8. Creative Writing
AI is improving its position in creative writing, by generating content for startups helpful in performance strategy reports, chatbot scripts, product descriptions, and employee evaluations based on emotionally effective keywords and overall messaging corporate response history.
9. Increasing Crop Yields through Smart Agriculture
AI-powered systems can detect issues in real-time with crop imag analyzing key crop development stages, crop stresses caused by weeds, water quality, diseases, etc., leading to improved crop yields.
10. Conservation Efforts
AI assists conservation efforts that target endangered species; augment efforts such as reducing poaching incidents and make comparisons to how animal populations interact in the climate and habitat leading to increased understanding.
Artificial intelligence’s continued evolution and innovative applications are driving us towards a more awe-inspiring technological world leading to vast and exceeding surprising expectations across varied sectors.
