We all already use artificial intelligence in our everyday lives

Did you know that artificial intelligence is not as unknown to us as it seems and that we already use it in everyday life, whether consciously or unconsciously?

Here are some examples:
We all use Google, Bing or Yahoo, which use artificial intelligence to filter our search queries and provide us with the right answers to our questions and concerns.

Likewise, our streaming services and multimedia platforms such as YouTube, Spotify, or Amazon Prime Video collect our data and feed it into the AI algorithm. So if you're wondering why you see a particular blockbuster in your suggestion list, it's because of the history of the films you've selected so far.

Facebook, Twitter and Instagram also use artificial intelligence to identify questionable user content. Content that violates the guidelines is automatically marked and deleted by the AI.

The artificial intelligence also filters out unwanted spam or phishing emails as well as spy or advertising posts, thus protecting us from unknown senders. Its AI algorithms examine dozens of amounts of information to identify patterns in the data streams that indicate spam. These include, for example, the time of sending, formatting and the number of emails sent from a particular account. See for yourself and take a look in your spam folder.

And what about our smartphones? Here, too, artificial intelligence is being used in our everyday lives. For example, facial recognition (FACE ID) uses facial recognition algorithms to unlock our screens with just a glance. Siri works in the same way, using voice recognition to follow our commands and give us the results we want.

There are also already cars that can drive themselves using artificial intelligence. This works with the help of all the sensors and cameras that evaluate and link data in real time and make the resulting decisions to protect us from dangerous situations.

Our navigation systems also use artificial intelligence to show us the fastest route, temporary traffic signs, construction sites, foreseeable accidents and weather disruptions that lie on our route.

As you can see from these examples, artificial intelligence is not as unknown to us as we thought. It accompanies and supports us every day and is already a part of our everyday lives.
