We have mostly talked about the famous applications of Artificial Intelligence like Netflix, Amazon, Siri etc. But all of this fall short in comparison to the ones you are about to read. Let’s continue from where we left.
A better world
Some people are afraid of AI, thinking that it might make them lost their job, but there are many positive things that it can do for us humans, like save the ecosystem and prevent adverse effects that threaten human and animal life. Companies like Microsoft are already using AI to study land-use patterns with terrain maps under a project called EarthCube. A deep understanding of these patterns allows it to make better decisions on the use of the land and implement proper preservation techniques. Scientists would be able to use the information obtained to preserve biodiversity and the ecosystem.
A superhuman doctor
AI is not only able to save certain areas of the ecosystem, but it can also save human lives. Doctors can promptly diagnose cancer before it’s too late through AI and deep learning. Infervisio, a Chinese startup is using deep learning and image recognition technologies to diagnose possible signs of lung cancer with X-rays. Many researchers are of the opinion that an artificial intelligence assisted cure for cancer is less than a decade away.
AI has many such implementations that you would have never thought of. Keep watching this space for more.
