There are many ways that AI can improve your life, but these are the top 10 ways it's making a difference in the homes of everyday people.
You might think that artificial intelligence is only something the tech giants are working on and it doesn't impact your life at home. But the reality is different. Artificial intelligence isn't just for big companies—it's impacting how we work, as well as everything from finance to manufacturing to our everyday lives. So let's find out about how AI impacts our day-to-day activities.
1. AI Cleaner
There are many examples of AI in the form of physical machines. For example, the Roomba vacuum cleaner by Robot scans the size of the room, identifies obstacles, and determines the most efficient route to cleanse it thoroughly.
2. Smart Kitchen Appliance
Smart kitchen appliances and smart speakers are making their way into kitchens all around the world. You may even have one now. Whether it’s a coffee machine or an oven, these tools are evolving, learning your schedules and patterns so that they can provide you with warm food, coffee, etc.
3. Smart Fridge
Your new smart fridge may be able to order food for you when freshness is low, or better yet, AI could be used to help you create the perfect meal with just the ingredients that are in your fridge. With gastronomical learning, companies like Plant Jammer and Chefling are providing an AI-driven solution to cooking with only a few of your favorite ingredients at hand.
4. Enhanced Health and Fitness at Home
The ability to monitor patients at home with real-time data, even from a remote location, has significant benefits. This would be a game-changer for healthcare professionals and could actually help save lives. Doctors could tap into the predictive power of AI to predict disease risk and injury likelihood before it happens. That way, they have more power to prevent illnesses before they happen.
5. Home Projects
We all know that home projects are not always the most exciting. Even more so, when something breaks in your home, you want to fix it as soon as possible. Just like a smart medical device, homes can run self-diagnostics predicting potential issues before they occur, contacting the appropriate repairman, who may be a robot.
6. Interconnected Home
The IoT, 5G technology, and new smart towns are on the horizon. These new technologies will help create a living technological ecosystem powered by real-time data and AI. Your home or apartment will be a part of this ecosystem that is interconnected in this complex web. The new smart towns will use your data to improve the quality of life for people around the city in various areas including energy consumption, traffic, and overcrowding.
7. Facial Recognition
Our smartphones are a part of everyday life, correct? Artificial intelligence in facial recognition technology is not a new concept. Every app that has face recognition, like Snapchat, Facebook, LucidPix, and more uses this AI tech. The LucidPix "3D Face" feature allows users to capture and convert their selfies to 3D photos. This is just like Snapchat's camera function, which also uses facial recognition to detect the user's face and use filters that it thinks will appeal most to them.
8. Media Recommendations
If you’ve ever finished watching a TV show on Netflix, you’ve probably noticed how Netflix immediately displays other shows you may enjoy watching next. YouTube is another platform that recommends a series of videos you might like next after you’ve finished watching one video.
9. Online Banking
Many banks now offer mobile check deposit services to their customers, which also utilize machine learning. Banking apps can recognize and read your handwriting to translate that into a digital check. So, now you can sit at your home and transfer money. This makes things so easy especially during the pandemic.
10. Bathroom Appliances
But the AI-automated geyser prepares the best water temperature according to your climate. It is fed with AI algorithms and the internet.
Automatic washing machines are another addition to the list. The automatic washing machine adjusts itself as per the machine load. Once you put clothes in, just forget and carry your chores. The automation will help you to clean, rinse and dry the clothes for you.
