While the tech world is advancing at an impressive pace, it is still a few decades away from giving humans the gift of superhuman artificial intelligence. But don't you worry, till that happens, we have got machine learning by our side to get us through the daily mountains of tasks that we have to face at work.
Machine learning is being used at top-tier organisations for quite sometime now. According to a Forrester report, 2016 saw $5 billion in machine learning venture investment. The report also added that corporate investment in artificial intelligence will triple this year, and become a $100 billion market by the year 2025.
Here's a list of five machine learning tools that Indianweb2 has handpicked that can help people from different walks of life to work efficiently.
Who doesn't want an assistant of their own? With x.ai, your dream of having a personal assistant will come true as the technology company makes an artificial intelligence personal assistant who can efficiently schedule all your meetings for you. According to Dennis R. Mortensen, CEO, x.ai, the idea for an artificial intelligence personal assistant came to him when he personally went through the enormous pain of manually scheduling 1019 meetings in 2012, of which roughly 670 had updates and or were rescheduled at least once. If you're also reeling with this problem, you know now what you have to do.
