How AI Can Improve People’s Lives

AI is one of the hot button topics right now. It is arguably the latest in a long line of technologies that have led to people predicting the end of the world as we know it and the takeover of the machines.

The reality is that AI is already being used across some industries though. Furthermore, it is proving to be a big success and is producing real benefits for both the companies and the public.

Healthcare and marketing just two of the sectors deploying AI as of now and it is helping them to improve efficiency levels. Another is the iGaming industry, where it is being used to personalise player experiences and enhance customer safety.

It is not just on the actual gaming sites either. Comparison sites use AI to make gaming search criteria more accurate. The providers offering slot games without wagering requirements listed by one such site in their recent report being a good example of that. 

AI can really make our lives better then and this article will look closely at how. 

Healthcare

One of the fields in which AI is starting to make a really positive impact is the healthcare one. It is producing beneficial results both for professionals working in that industry and for the general public

If you found yourself in the position of needing to visit a hospital in Bath – for example St Martin’s Hospital – you might find that the nurses were wearing devices that use AI machine learning. These can highlight health concerns before they become serious and track vital signs.

AI is also being utilised within this sector to enable medical consultations to be carried out on a remote basis. That allows this service to be performed more conveniently both for doctors and for patients.

Dating

Romantic relationships are important to most people and AI has the potential to make them run more smoothly. That is because it is increasingly being deployed by the companies behind dating apps

They are using it to help their customers match to the most suitable people. In practice, that could lead to a romantic experience in Bath or a global love affair with someone on the other side of the world.

The point is to find the person that best fits the preferences of each dating app user. AI stores and collates essential information about these customers and uses that to identify others who closely match it.. 

Many worry about that information storage, but if it helps them find the love of their life they are less likely to care.

Education

AI could really make a very big difference in the education world. Just as iGaming companies are using it to tailor the experience to each individual customer, so it can be deployed in a similar way within the education sector.

What that would mean in reality is learning experiences that match the abilities and needs of a student. AI machine learning is capable of analysing study data for each pupil or student to pick out what they are good at, as well as areas they struggle in.

It has the power to be revolutionary in ensuring that students get targeted support where they most need it.

Enhanced entertainment

We have already established that AI is helping to improve the gaming experience, but other areas of the entertainment industry can also benefit from it. The Amazon and Netflix streaming providers that most people in Bath subscribe to are using it to store and analyse information about what their users watch.

This is then deployed to customise recommendations more closely to each individual.

Working changes

AI is going to bring a lot of changes to the working world. For one thing, a lot of the mundane tasks that people have to do as part of their jobs will almost certainly be automated before much longer. 

There are concerns that this could lead to widespread job losses, but most forms of employment involve tasks that must be done by human beings too. AI will just make our working lives easier.

It could also lead to the creation of new jobs. People will be needed to monitor AI programmes, keep them running as they should and develop new ones. Those who are adept with technology will find fresh opportunities thanks to AI.

Safer transport

AI is helping to bring autonomous vehicles closer to being a reality. That will be a game-changer for people in Bath and the rest of the world because it can cut back on road accidents.

It will also make it more possible for disabled and elderly people to get around, ensuring that mobility is accessible to all.

AI has lots of positive potential to improve our lives, so people should stop being scared of it.
