Future Smartphones: Artificial Intelligence

When we talk about the future of smartphones, regular mention the better screens, more powerful processors, cameras that see in the dark, and often the elusive dream, the infamous battery that lasts at least two days. But this time I want to turn the story to a whole other side, that could make a new revolution in the world of smartphones and a lot sooner than we expect.

Still out there in 2011, so far as is publicity known, Google has opened a new department called the Brain, with the aim of producing an artificial neural network. For those not familiar with the anatomy, just the fact that the average human brain has about 100 billion neurons, each of which is connected to the other 10,000. This means that the number of synaptic connections in the human brain can easily reach the one trillion. This would be the number behind the unit has fifteen zeros.

Google Brain is actually a project that wants to create an artificial brain, or artificial intelligence. Specifically, one such has already been created, but the power away from real human brain. Let's say that at the level of some little animals, maybe a mouse. But no matter how it sounded miserable, it is extremely important, and ultimately advanced.

We all know that certain types of artificial intelligence has been around for many years, but it is, to put it mildly, limited to some basic tasks. All who have studied any basic programming know that the computer itself is very stupid machines, and unless they literally do not explain all the steps you need to do, action will not be executed.

The man, on the other hand, an intelligent being, ready to adapt to the environment, every day to improve and learn new things. If a man in plain language saying that he went to buy bread and milk, he knows he has to take the money, get dressed and shod, unlock the doors, lock and make quite a complex series of actions that we take for granted. The computer will not know unless he does not describe in detail each step. To the computer can carry out such actions, require artificial intelligence.

The first application of such artificial intelligence took place just over a month when Google harnessed Brain for one of its most wanted tools - Translate.
Translation tool, although very advanced, as it is also unreliable because it is behind him stood a very detailed and complicated set of commands. The sentence by typing, for example, in English, would be translated into German only if the set of commands exactly fit the structure of sentences.
Thus, the program for each sentence analyzed all the grammatical rules of the English language, then his dictionary, then all repeated for the German language, and then, according to an algorithm tried to make a sentence with the same content and meaning in German.

Although this sounds like a seemingly simple algorithm, we all know how unreliable, but just having started using Google Translate Brain, interpreting results were so good that it seemed as if they were translated by a man who fully understands both languages.

The revolution that took place in the Google translator could soon be transferred to their own smartphones, and we have already seen to slowly apply the so-called. Google's assistant.
I Assistant would soon be so deeply integrated into Android that it once could change the way we use our smartphones, as it happened with the launch of the first iPhone.

Imagine waking up at 7:15 in the morning, instead of 6:45, as the Assistant calculated that there is no need to get up half an hour early because all the peace you get to do before going to work. Or better yet, wake up at 9 as Assistant knows he does not have to at the time you come to the meeting, as your business partner flight from Beijing delayed 2 hours.

Also, going home from work and he knows his routine, but on the way they work or crash, but he is thinking of you and still know that today is your wedding anniversary. He knows that your wife loves kale, and knows that it is best to pick them up in the wholesale the Zitnjak because there are 4 times cheaper than in florists. Also know that usually the anniversary spend between 300 and 500 kuna, but we submit that the way stop by a nearby jewelry store because the earrings that your wife lajkala on Facebook, on sale.

Of course, you do not know, but your assistant knows that a woman will be late home from work and tells you that you get to make dinner and surprise is because, on social networks just recently complained that it never made. Also with all this suggests, and walking along the desert at the end or maybe a new movie that you did not have to look at the movies even half a year ago, but arrived at Netflix.

The inclusion of heating before coming into the house, automatic unlocking the door or opening the garage does not even need to talk, because all this in some form already exists, but together with the above, will form a whole that soon we will not have to think, but it will work itself out of yourself.

For now we do not think about so many things that we need to take care of before, and we are completely forgotten about them. When the last time you thought that you have to pull the choke before starting your car? Or when was the last time pocinčali body of the car before winter? Or maybe something closer to IT, the last time you announced your household, you can connect to the Internet but that does not count on the phone?

Most of us have lived before the smartphone, Google, and even the Internet as we know it, and that without which life today life practically unthinkable. All the big companies are investing heavily in the development of artificial intelligence and just a matter of when it will be fully integrated into our lives, and smartphones are the first devices in which such intelligence will be built because they are still devices that are used more than any other.

Although the enormous power needed to start the same intelligence, it will not be necessary because it will be located somewhere in the cloud, and will work as fast as it does the Google search engine, thus practically instantaneously.

Many skeptics say they do not think much of anything and that it corrupts or dumbing down people and the like. I personally believe that today we think of too many things about which we should not think at all. Since many minor actions that we slow down, we have all the spices that we need to eat and where they had been on sale this week, when we have to pay tuition or child trip.

Every director of a large company has his assistant who thinks about many things and makes his business, just as they used those same directors have their own telephone, while the others went to the booth. It also comes a time when each of us will be able to have your own assistant, even if it is man-made.
