In 2020, artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer seen as something futuristic. It’s a part of our everyday lives–from asking Siri a question to telling Google to order groceries for home delivery. It’s even being used to help researchers answer tough questions about the Coronavirus pandemic…so we can stop the spread and get back to those everyday lives more quickly.
AI signifies computer software that performs human-like activities, ranging from learning to problem-solving. You might have heard of “machine learning,” which is one of the most common types of AI used across all industries. This is the practice of leveraging algorithms to find patterns in huge amounts of data–and automating decisions and actions around that information.
