Possibilities…
Text summarization
Automatic text summarization in legal and corporate due diligence reduces what used to take days to minutes.
Image diagnostics
Deep neural networks can now be used to classify medical images, such as chest x-rays and scans of the retina, to determine the presence of any abnormalities.
Video Analytics
Videos can now be analyzed in real-time to detect critical events for advanced warning.
Predictive Maintenance
Streaming data from IOT sensors is analyzed in real-time to predict when to schedule preventive maintenance, instead of a regular fixed schedule, saving time and resources.
Heart Health
Using traditional Chinese medical techniques like pulse reading, AI researchers using advanced sensors are able to determine a person’s holistic health and provide wellness guidance.
Real-time translation
A universal translator much like Star Trek’s is not far off, with deep learning neural networks performing near or better than humans in real-time translation in ideal conditions.
Home-care Robots
AI researchers are working on detecting emotions and pain in facial scans to provide better care for elderly patients as home companion robots.
Self-driving vehicles
Self-driving cars are expected to be on the roads within the next 5 years. This will change the economics of travel and delivery and bring about better road safety for everyone.
Robo Advisors
24×7 Robo advisers will provide timely financial advice based on your overall risk profile, current market conditions and sentiments, all without pushy sales techniques and over-selling.
