AI Revolution - Tech Giants and what it Tells us about our Future
And then, out of the blue - bucking this trend in a big way is one of the largest tech firms on earth with what might be its greatest AI breakthrough ever. Being it is a new technology and all, there are most likely tremendous implications across many different kinds of industry.
What’s the Big Deal?
A "next-generation AI model" which the company sees as a lighter weight, more cost-effective solution. This model is able to read a text and generate one with human like accuracy. Examples example A computer that you can just talk to like another person (i:e The Holy Grail of Conversational Interfaces)
Why It Matters:
Better talking: The updated AI could make conversations with customer service bots sound less stilted and more comforting.
Enhanced versatility may be of advantage to those who work with words or images and can help writers, artists and other creatives in generating new ideas.
Improved Education - This could allow students and learners to benefit from a whole new set of interactive and personalized learning tools.
The Tech Behind It:
This AI learning is done through smart algorithms on a huge statistical data set, that makes it more intelligent over the time. This can be best understood by analogy, where one may think about teaching a super-smart dog (or better yet.. human!), …. a new trick.
What’s Next?
The company says it will use the technology across a range of services, from virtual assistants to video creation tools. Imagine the positive, or even negative influence this could make to how we live!
