How to be prepared for an AI-driven future.

As more companies become aware of the benefits of AI, it’s becoming necessary to implement AI to maintain market relevancy and stay competitive. According to Forbes, the market size will reach $407 billion by 2027, creating more thay 97 million jobs in the coming years. All industries including healthcare, insurance, life sciences, and more can utilize AI to bolster efficiency and optimize outcomes. 

AI innovation is moving faster than ever before. New technologies are constantly evolving to assist industry professionals streamline and optimize operations. Below are some industry specific AI innovations. 

AI in our Daily Lives

AI is already prevalent in the technology we all use on a daily basis. Any time we use our phone, AI is powering voice assistants such as Siri and Alexa, giving us text and spelling suggestions when writing texts and emails, and using facial recognition to keep our phones secure. On social media and online, AI driven technology is targeting us with personalized content recommendations, advertisements, and news articles. On Spotify, Netflix, and YouTube, recommendations are given to us based on historical data and trends in consumer behavior. Camera and images processing, also known as computer vision, can analyze photos we take, and categorize them based on content and facial recognition.

Generative AI and its Impact on Creators

Generative AI offers exciting opportunities for creators and artists across various domains. Unlike other AI models, generative AI can generate original content based on available data. The content can vary, and includes images, text, music, animations, and more. Midjourney, for example, can produce original and specific images based on prompts it is fed. The popular ChatGPT can generate original text, which creators can use to aid with content ideation and creation. Generative AI will transform the creative process, enabling unprecedented levels of creativity, collaboration, and efficiency.

Changing customer expectations and demands 

Changing customer expectations and demands are driving the need for businesses to adopt AI solutions. Customers today seek personalized, seamless, and convenient experiences across various touch points. AI can play a pivotal role in meeting these expectations by leveraging data-driven insights to deliver hyper-personalization, predictive recommendations, and proactive customer service, 24/7.
