Integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Mobile Apps

Artificial Intelligence (AI) reminds us of many Hollywood movies, like The Terminator, The Matrix etc, in which machines surpass the ability and smartness of human beings to perform incredible acts. With significant advancement in technology, it is now actually possible to empower a machine with AI by using a few programming techniques and database management system. But AI is no restricted to machines robotics only, and is now seen as the next frontier of mobile devices too.

Cortana, Siri and Google Now have already shown us how AI can make a difference in digital world to make human lives better. They behave as personal assistants to advise and suggest a user, like reminding birthdays of loved ones, an important meeting, a major event and many more.

Integration of AI in mobile apps is all set to create a bandwagon, with smartphone manufacturers investing in research to come up with mobile apps that can effectively handle official and personal tasks of human beings. We have a small quotient of AI in our smartphones already, which is why we are able to easily make a hotel booking and shop online. It’s no hyperbole that further advancement in mobile AI only opens avenues to make smartphones or tablets capable of performing human activities.

AI will significantly impact custom mobile app development and help build apps that will not only communicate with human beings but understand their emotions as well. Researchers are working to improve voice-recognition service to achieve the same. Mobile chip maker Qualcomm says that future smartphones will be intelligent enough to understand what photos you are taking of and recognize faces. Does that mean deep learning will become a standard features of future smartphones? Qualcomm is looking forward to build neuro-inspired chips to make smartphones smarter about images so that they can recognize faces even from videos or images that are not very clear. AI in mobile apps will largely run the future of personalized services.

Going by estimates of ABIresearch, could-based solutions will globally result into 68% of growth in mobile speech-recognition platforms by 2017. Researchers are endeavoring to transcend limitations of smartphones like constrained communication bandwidth, small screen sizes and other issues to incorporate AI in smartphones.

BroApp helps strengthen your romantic bond with your partner by sending an automated text message on daily basis. But this is no stopping as further advancement in its AI could do wonders for couples who struggle to remember small-yet-important things to maintain a happy relationship with their loved ones.

Watson, a product of IBM, is a machine that finds answers to complicated questions in a matter of three to five seconds. The machine is powered with AI to dig into a terabyte of data and come out with answers in no time. Such is the power of AI, and it is only going to increase by multiple folds, providing you a picture about the enormity of AI to transform how mobile apps will behave in future.
