AI in Your Pocket

As you have seen in the activity you just completed, AI has been used in various fields such as healthcare, finance, and transportation. In recent years, AI has become more prevalent in our daily lives through the use of virtual assistants and other commonly used tools that leverage AI and machine learning (ML).

Examples of AI and ML in everyday life:

  1. SIRI: SIRI is a virtual assistant that uses natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning to understand and respond to user requests. SIRI can perform tasks such as setting reminders, sending messages, and making phone calls.

  2. Amazon Alexa: Amazon Alexa is another virtual assistant that uses NLP and machine learning (ML) to understand and respond to user requests. Alexa can perform tasks such as playing music, setting alarms, and controlling smart home devices.

  3. Netflix: Netflix uses ML algorithms to recommend movies and TV shows to users based on their viewing history and preferences. This personalized recommendation system has helped Netflix become one of the most popular streaming services in the world.

  4. Google Maps: Google Maps uses AI and ML to provide real-time traffic updates and suggest the fastest route to a destination. This has made it easier for people to navigate and plan their daily commutes.

These are just a few examples of how AI and ML have been used in everyday life. In education, AI has been used to support student learning, adapt assessments, and analyze student data to identify key trends.
