NXT - August 2024

En este asunto

The August 2024 Edition of NXT is here and it's packed with exciting content about the rise of AI. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has progressed from a theoretical concept to a transformative force shaping various sectors. This feature explores AI's journey from its origins with Alan Turing to its current applications and future potential. The story begins with AI’s early development in the 1950s, its challenges during the "AI Winter," and the resurgence fueled by advancements in machine learning and data processing. Key milestones, including IBM’s Deep Blue and Google’s AlphaGo, are highlighted. The feature also addresses AI’s benefits, such as increased efficiency and personalization, alongside challenges including privacy concerns, ethical dilemmas, and job displacement.

Over in Test, from page 77, we got to try the new Apple iPad Air, which offers a perfect balance of performance, design, and functionality, before we got our hands on the Kia EV9, an EV that combines spacious comfort with advanced technology. Lastly, NXT Big Thing, we look at how AI is revolutionising consumer technology.
