The use of artificial intelligence (AI) has been surrounded by fear and uncertainty for a long time, but it was always intended as a tool to assist humans. AI is meant to augment human work and improve efficiency in all aspects of life, including work and home settings. As businesses move to adopt AI, it will help streamline workflows, especially when resources are limited. With the skilled tech worker shortage persisting as a problem, AI is becoming increasingly critical.
AI is already prevalent, including in self-driving cars, healthcare, finance, retail, and social media, among other areas. However, AI models must be chosen carefully, based on their effectiveness in solving unique business challenges. Once a model has been selected, it can be trained to augment specific business functions, with potential applications in forensic video analytics, for instance.
One of the largest categories of global data growth is video data, but it would take a person an immense amount of time to identify and document any important footage. AI, however, can accomplish this task in a fraction of the time as it interprets the data and learns from it. Training AI is straightforward: it involves teaching the AI to interpret data and learn from it.
Understanding and use of AI has grown in recent years, although there still remains a fear of it being used to replace human work. However, finding an AI model that works for one’s business and training it to perform tasks that will improve products and services is becoming increasingly important as AI is becoming commonplace across all industries. Furthermore, rather than being a replacement for human work, AI can help to strengthen human efforts by improving efficiency.
