Where to Start If you Want to Open the Door to Artificial Intelligence
There is a high chance you’re reading this story on your smartphone; or that you used a ridesharing app to get home last night; or that you needed to talk to your bank’s customer service and just had a quick conversation with their chatbot.
All of these are examples of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in our everyday lives.
There is a big brouhaha over how AI will transform the future of the world but the reality is that it has already transformed its present. There is no industry left that AI hasn’t made its impact on.
For example:
- AI has helped business save time and money by automating and optimising routine processes and tasks;
- AI has benefited healthcare by minimizing human error risks with robot-assisted surgery, automated image diagnosis, and prescription error recognition;
- AI has made digital marketing more cost-effective with the opportunities offered by smart advertising.
And this list is long.
Having this said, it is very important that we invest our time and resources in exploring the opportunities created by AI. The sooner we do so the better.
The easiest way to introduce yourself to the world of artificial intelligence and find out what fields of AI interest you best could be attending AI conferences online from any part of the world. These are great platforms where experienced professionals share their insights with you.
One of such virtual events is DataFest Online - All About AI taking place on 20-22 May.
The 3-day event will feature inspirational talks, hands-on workshops, and panel discussions about Artificial Intelligence in technology, business and social good.
The good thing is that most of the sessions at this conference are targeted at beginners who are just opening the door to the AI world. This might be a good place to get a good idea of the topic as well as meet many like-minded people.
