Artificial Intelligence Revolution : A Chip with 5 Senses

Artificial Intelligence Revolution : A Chip with 5 Senses

Have you ever wished that your phone talks like an actual person? Imagine, if your computer could interact with you in such a way that it conveyed logic as well as emotions? If, when taking a selfie, your phone told you that those shoes DO NOT go with that outfit? Incredible, isn’t it? Well then, this dream-like fantasy is about to become a reality. Because the latest revolution in this area of technology is a stepping stone to just that. 
Experts have managed to develop a chip that is capable of detecting the five senses, similar to how a human brain can. This contraption is remarkably identical to the human brain, being capable of sensing what is around it by sight, sound, smell, touch, and even taste. What’s even more exceptional is the fact that similar to a human brain, the power consumption of this chip is ultra low, which makes integrating it into everyday hardware very easy. Even though it is still in its early stages of development, the potential of this tech exceeds all previously known advancements.
Simply put, it can see, hear, feel and even smell and taste. Apparently, the technical intricacies behind such a feat are obscure and rather complicated, the implications and repercussions of this are colossal.

Simply put, this technology helps to bridge the gap between human brain and computers, which in effect means that computers become more aware of how we, the living users perceive the world. This is an enormous leap in technology. How does this help us, you ask? Simple. Just like we told you when we started, this enables the machine to behave more human. This helps you to have a phone which, in addition to being able to perform all its previous functions, is now also equipped to approach and analyze a problem to solve it in such a way that it also accommodates human needs and wants too. This means that your phone can sense and can be programmed to remember your preferences and act or respond accordingly. 

Uses of this include not just daily life, but also fields like Medicine, Engineering, Military, Communication, pretty much anything and everything you can think about. A robot which can take real-time decisions during a procedure, a system which checks for errors during work, a drone that is genuinely unmanned- which doesn’t need a human controller in any form, the possibilities are endless. These are just the large scale and professional applications. Let’s talk about how this affects you, up close and personal. 

Coming to all our daily lives, this just means that systems that we use every day become a lot more intelligent and perceptive our needs. Like a phone that calls the doctor when it detects that the user is sick. Or a computer that helps you choose when you shop online. An oven that can identify what’s cooking and modify its settings accordingly. A coffee maker who knows how you like your coffee. Hell, a house that has your own personal JARVIS! Sounds inconceivable, doesn’t it? Well, not really. Since the essential requirement for this use case has already been achieved.

Well, it looks like our dream is a lot closer to reality now. We are closer to having our own personal artificial butler. A system that can sense and perceive as our brain does is undoubtedly the beginning. The beginning of a new era. And we have a front row seat to the grand coronation of this. So sit back, relax and wait for the show. Or better yet, be a part of this technological revolution.

Machine Learning & Deep Learning

Machine Learning & Deep Learning Understanding the latest advancements in artificial intelligence can seem overwhelming, but it really boils down to two concepts you’ve likely heard of before:  machine learning  and  deep learning . These terms are often thrown around in ways that can make them seem like interchangeable buzzwords, hence why it’s important to understand the differences. And those differences should be known! Examples of machine learning and deep learning are everywhere. It’s how Netflix knows which show you’ll want to watch next or how Facebook knows whose face is in a photo. And it’s how a customer service representative will know if you’ll be satisfied with their support before you even take a customer satisfaction (CSAT) survey. So what are these concepts that dominate the conversations about artificial intelligence and how exactly are they different? What is machine learning? Here’s a basic definition of machine learn...

Hadoop As Big Data

Introduction: In this blog, I will discuss Big Data, its characteristics, different sources of Big Dataand some key components of Hadoop Framework. In the two part blog series, I will cover the basics of Hadoop Ecosystem. Let us start with Big Data and its importance in Hadoop Framework. Ethics, privacy, security measures are very important and need to be taken care while dealing with the challenges of Big Data. Big Data: When the Data itself becomes the part of the problem. Data is crucial for all organizations. It has to be stored for future use. We can refer the term Big Data as the data, which is beyond the storage capacity and the processing power of an organization. What are the sources of this huge data? There are different sources of data such as the social networks, CCTV cameras, sensors, online shopping portals, hospitality data, GPS, automobile industry etc., that generate data massively. Big Data can be characterized as: The Volume of the Data Velocit...

Automatic Builds With GCP Cloud Build

Automatic Builds With GCP Cloud Build If you are looking for an easy way to automatically build your application in the cloud, then maybe Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Cloud Build is for you. In this post, we will build a Spring Boot Maven project with Cloud Build, create a Docker image for it, and push it to GCP Container Registry. 1. Introduction Cloud Build is the build server tooling of GCP, something similar as Jenkins. But, Cloud Build is available out-of-the-box in your GCP account and that is a major advantage. The only thing you will need is a build configuration file in your git repository containing the build steps. Each build step is running in its own Docker container. Several cloud builders which can be used as a build step are generally available. You can read more about Cloud Build on the  overview  and  concepts  website of GCP. There are three categories of build steps: Official  cloud builders provided by GCP; Community  cloud ...
