Artificial Intelligence Market Research

Artificial Intelligence is a hotly discussed topic these days, but it’s nothing new.

Popular culture has reflected our fascination with AI for years in movies such as 2001: A Space Odyssey, I, Robot, and, logically enough, A.I.  So what exactly is artificial intelligence? It’s here, it’s the future, and to some people, it seems a little bit scary.

The Genesis of AI

John McCarthy was a highly-regarded scientist at Stanford and MIT. He concocted the name Artificial intelligence in 1955, defining it as, “the science and engineering of making intelligent machines.”

The origins of our intrigue with artificial intelligence can be traced back far beyond the advent of the modern computer age. Around 2500 B.C., ancient Egyptians sometimes consulted with statues to gain insights from their suspected otherworldly wisdom. Today, a hulking bust of Re-Harmakis in a Cairo museum, “reveals the secret of his genius: an opening at the nape just big enough to hold a priest.”

Other revolutionary inventions such as Charles Babbage’s Analytical Engine in 1833, paved the way for contemporary computing and what has come to be known as artificial intelligence. By 1948, at the dawn of the digital age, the stage seemed set for the rapid advancement of A.I. British computer scientist Alan Turing raised many eyebrows in the scientific community and beyond with his “Intelligent Machinery” paper, “seeing no objections to a working, thinking machine by the end of the century.”

Early, clunky computers such as the UNIVAC 1 gave way to others, such as IBM’s Deep Blue, the first computer chess program that effectively dispensed with all human challengers. 

AI Today

Today, major companies such as Microsoft, Amazon, and Google have already invested heavily in AI to improve search engine technology and to provide people with viable cyber-assistants. Naturally, artificial intelligence is being harnessed to do useful things in fields like health care, as providers “leverage new technologies to improve outcomes and reduce costs (with) the availability of cheaper and more powerful computers.”

Watson is a computer designed specifically to answer questions presented to it in plainly spoken language. A product of IBM’s Deep QA project, Watson was developed to compete on the popular television show, Jeopardy! against a pair of former champions. Ultimately, Watson prevailed and won the competition, with a little help from the “200 million pages of structured and unstructured content consuming four terabytes van disk storage including the full text of Wikipedia at its disposal.”

Capitalizing on this newfound public awareness of Watson’s capabilities, IBM introduced Watson as a commercial entity to the healthcare sector, using it by nurses at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center to assist in important decisions regarding lung cancer treatments.

What is Artificial Intelligence Market Research?

Artificial intelligence market research involves a comprehensive analysis of the global market dynamics surrounding artificial intelligence (AI). It includes the assessment of market size, growth trends, industry use cases, competitive landscape, and prospects of AI technologies.

Similarly, artificial intelligence market research also involves scrutinizing the end-use industries that significantly benefit from AI applications. These include healthcare, automotive, finance, retail, and manufacturing, among others. The research aims to provide insights into how AI is transforming these industries, optimizing operations, enhancing customer experiences, and driving innovation.

Another crucial aspect of artificial intelligence market research is understanding the challenges and limitations of AI, including ethical considerations, data privacy issues, and the potential impact on employment. It also looks into the investment landscape, funding patterns, and strategic initiatives undertaken by key market players in the AI space.

Using A.I. in Business

Beyond the medical realm, AI is now being employed in other areas, such as law enforcement, stock trading, scientific research, and the toy industry. Oxford University’s Nick Bostrum notes; “Many thousands of A.I. applications are deeply embedded in the infrastructure of every industry.”

Artificial intelligence is not without its detractors. Respected English Theoretical Physicist, Stephen Hawking, has gone on the record stating: “Artificial intelligence could be a real danger in the not too distant future.” He believes that one day a robot could, “design improvements to itself and outsmart us all.”

Physicist, Louis Del Monte, author of The Artificial Intelligence Revolution, recently made this alarming prediction concerning the rapid advancement of AI. “Between 2040 and 2045, we will have developed a machine or machines that are not only equivalent to a human mind but more intelligent than the entire human race combined.”
