A new revolution has already been announced, even if you have been skeptical about the voice technology before, the figures are quite eloquent. Canalys reported 187% worldwide market growth in smart speaker shipments in the second quarter of 2018 and 137% growth is predicted for the 2019. So a new eon of voice-enabled devices can be regarded open, and the former trend of voice technology implementation can already be acknowledged as a major shift happened in the digital world recently.

AI has already surpassed humans in many activities requiring thoroughness, accuracy, and patience. Which doesn’t prevent it from stacking up at such elementary things as telling a turtle from a rifle. With the consequences it can have (and sometimes already has: from suspicion of a criminal offense to traffic fatalities), some experts even hesitate whether it is Artificial Intelligence or Artificial Stupidity we should fear more. Why does AI make so weird mistakes and how can it be fixed?

Business appliance of AI is picking up steam. According to SAS, ⅔ of companies from different industries expect their activities will be shaped by AI within next 5 to 10 years. Though, high enthusiasm is hampered by the lack of organizational readiness. Many hesitate whether it is worth starting now — often discouraged by the cultivated opinion that AI is only for big players. But is it really so?

“Wow, she is certainly wittier than some of my acquaintances!” That was my thought when I first saw her on TV. AI robot Sophia, a creation of Hanson Robotics, really impresses at first sight. She jokes, she gives speeches, and recently she even announced that she wants a baby! Looks pretty nice, but... what kind of practical value might it have?

Deep learning technology is one of most demanded IT trends as it stands behind numerous of innovations. Deep learning already is applicable to various spheres of life and business: customer services, marketing, operations, sales, and even governmental affairs. Let’s discover fascinating deep learning applications and their influence on our lives.

In a recent article, we’ve mentioned that more and more users prefer searching for goods directly through the Amazon instead of googling. Large e-commerce companies are changing our attitude to online purchasing and, as a result, to website development. Successful e-commerce companies actively implement innovative technologies in their work — chatbots, voice search, and other AI solutions. Let’s discover benefits of Artificial Intelligence implementation for website development.

The notion of deep learning causes multiple questions among people who have never faced this technology in practice. What is it, what is its technical background, and what benefits can it bring to technological companies? Let's analyse the basics.
