Artificial intelligence is a misunderstood technology. Although everybody wants to know it and each business may want to invest in it, the truth actually is that many still don’t understand what AI actually is and what it can offer. As marketers look to outperform competitors, many assumptions and exaggerations regarding the capabilities of AI have been flying all over. For example, there is confusion about the difference between machine learning, deep learning, and AI. For this reason, you should consider knowing a few things for you to determine whether AI is right for your company or not.

The evolution of robots continues to delight and surprise as machines grow closer and closer to human form and function. What used to be science fiction in 1921 may soon be a reality in 2021 if robots that already exist like Alexa and Roomba merge into one humanoid bot that can learn to think independently and vacuum. But the recent explosion of robotics is deceptive, making it seem like they just came to fruition. In fact, Robotics has had a much longer history; in fact, the first known example of a functioning robotic device dates to a water clock somewhere around 1500 BCE found in an Egyptian burial tomb.
