Artificial Intelligence
Exploring Expert Systems, Machine Learning (ML), Robotics, Computer Vision (CV), Natural Language Processing (NLP), and Planning
On May 8, 2018, Google I/O was held at Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California. If you are wondering what Google I/O is, don’t worry, I’ve got your back.
“Google I/O brings together developers from around the globe annually for talks, hands-on learning with Google experts, and the first look at Google’s latest developer products.”
In the Keynote, Sundar Pichai, the CEO of Alphabet Inc. (Google’s parent company), shared the then-latest developments that Google had been working on. One of the projects that he spoke about was something that maybe no one saw coming; an application of Artificial Intelligence (AI), soon to be on our own smartphones, that left the world in awe. The project was called ‘Google Duplex.’ This initiative enables AI to place a phone call to a hair salon, converse just like us humans, and book a haircut appointment — and the part where your jaws drop is that all of this takes place in the background on your phone, without any intervention of yours! …
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been the talk of the town these days. From hyperlocal startups to Multinational companies, everyone has either started using AI in their businesses or are having plans to begin in the quarters to come. It wouldn’t be wrong to say:
“dot-ai is the new dot-com.”

In my previous post, we explored, in a general sense, what AI is. If you haven’t explored it yet, feel free to check it out by clicking on the following link: Simplifying Artificial Intelligence.
In this post, we will dive deeper into AI and explore its various categories. Don’t worry if this sounds overwhelming; you’ll be fine! If you are a student, someone who is or aspires to be an AI engineer/researcher someday, a business owner or an entrepreneur, or someone for whom perhaps Computer Science is a new subject altogether, this series is for you. …
Everywhere around us we find people talking about Artificial Intelligence (AI). Most of them who are new to this field think of movies like “The Terminator” or “The Incredibles”; the idea that develops is those AI-powered robots will harm humans and destroy the Earth. If AI was indeed like how it is shown in the movies, why the tech giants like Google, Apple, Microsoft, and the myriad number of startups would be interested in working and commercializing this technology? As fascinating as these science-fiction movies are, they portray a not-so-accurate picture of what AI actually is. …
