As marketers seek to improve and expand their customer communication, traditional SMS messaging is quickly giving way to the more dynamic, feature-rich Application to Person (A2P) platform. While these messages are delivered in much the same way, they are significantly more interactive, personal and customizable than a standard text message alone. As the industry expands, it's … [Read more...] about Artificial Intelligence and A2P Messaging: Transforming the App Revolution

Deep Learning as a Service: Welcome IBM Watson Studio
The next phase of machine learning, deep learning, relies on large amounts of data to train the algorithms. Normally, this would incur high-costs, but thanks to IBM's new Watson Studio costs can be kept low, resulting in a positive ROI for organisations. IBM Watson Studio allows you to train your models and easily add functionality thanks to their APIs using a pay-as-you-go … [Read more...] about Deep Learning as a Service: Welcome IBM Watson Studio
Why Google Duplex Did Not Pass The Turing Test
Recently, a lot of press was given to Google's Duplex Artificial Intelligence (AI) bot. Watch a video of the demonstration here. The Duplex bot calls businesses, such as a restaurant, on your behalf and makes a reservation. It does this by actually having a conversation with the human on the other end of the line. The voice is totally realistic, and in test cases, the humans … [Read more...] about Why Google Duplex Did Not Pass The Turing Test
Artificial intelligence and the future of programming
Artificial intelligence is here. It's in our homes, our pockets and handbags, and it's creeping into our workplaces. It's been able to best humans at board games since the 90s, and it's not half bad at quiz shows, either. As AI continues to grow, the limitations on what it can do are shrinking. Recently, AI has grown capable of more creative pursuits, such as drawing pictures … [Read more...] about Artificial intelligence and the future of programming

What is artificial intelligence (AI)?
AI refers to the development of computer systems that are able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as recognizing patterns, learning from experience, and problem-solving.
AI systems can be trained to perform these tasks through the use of algorithms and machine learning techniques, which allow them to analyze and interpret data and make decisions based on that analysis. AI has the potential to significantly improve the efficiency and accuracy of many tasks, and is being applied in a wide range of industries and applications.
+
How is artificial intelligence used?
AI is used in a variety of industries, including healthcare, finance, retail, and transportation, to improve efficiency and productivity.
For example, in healthcare, AI can be used to analyze medical images or electronic health records to identify patterns and make diagnoses, while in finance, it can be used to identify fraudulent activity or optimize investment strategies. In retail, AI can be used to personalize customer experiences or predict demand for products.

What are the potential risks and benefits of artificial intelligence?
AI has the potential to revolutionize industries and improve our daily lives, but it also raises ethical concerns and the risk of job displacement. One concern is the potential for AI systems to perpetuate or amplify biases present in the data used to train them, leading to unfair or discriminatory outcomes.
There is also the risk that AI could be used to automate tasks or make decisions that have negative consequences for humans.
On the other hand, the benefits of AI include improved efficiency and accuracy, the ability to process and analyze large amounts of data quickly, and the potential to tackle complex problems that are difficult for humans to solve.
