Artificial Intelligence: The Race Into The Future
DataQuest|September 2017

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla Motors, who sided with Vladimir Putin, endorsing Putin for his comments on AI supremacy, added that AI could be the reason behind the World War III. His words hold worth if a series of incidents related to AI-bots are taken into consideration. Facebook was forced to take its bots offline as the bots devised their own language. This is just one instance. Similar instances have been observed in China and with Microsoft. it portends a scary future. capable of taking their own decisions, AI-driven machines might trigger unsavory events and do the collateral damage from which humanity might not recover. However, at the same time, AI reserves a huge potential and can help solve the critical business and social problems in unimaginable ways. Many companies are using AI-enabled bots to reduce the number of agents in their organizations. They are able to take informed decisions in far too less time. It is believed that AI might kill jobs in short term but will create a host of other opportunities.

Artificial Intelligence: The Race Into The Future

Artificial Intelligence Has Undeniable Potential in India

AI is the wave which will push this generation towards the next industrial revolution

Artificial Intelligence is the future of all humankind. It can reduce cost and increase efficiency at the same time. Today humans know more than they can tell. Prior to Artificial Intelligence, we were unable to articulate our own knowledge which means that we could not automate many tasks that we can do now. Artificial Intelligence is a boon for us as the ability of machines keep improving its performance without humans having to explain exactly how to accomplish all the tasks it is given. It can achieve superhuman performance in a wide range of activities such as detecting frauds and diagnosing disease.

Robotic Surgery has recently made its mark in the healthcare sector in India and is helping surgeons to achieve higher success rate. Because of the precision and accuracy, robotic surgery is a way forward to save more lives. One such company which is working aggressively in the area of robotic surgery in India is a U.S. based firm Vattikuti Technologies. The company has provided hospitals and trusts with Da Vinci Surgical Robots.

With the help of surgical robots, the surgery is done more accurately. It reduces the chances of wrong cuts and helps patient recover faster as compared to open surgery in which the recovery time increases. There is little or no pain, as robotic arms enter the body via tiny incisions. Healing is quicker for patients; and scarring too is minimal. Experts bet big on robotic arms as they see more value in them and believe that there is an overall saving on time and money.
