Artificial intelligence is entering more and more industries and is changing fortunes at an unprecedented pace. The latest beneficiary of this technology is the gaming industry. Due to artificial intelligence algorithms, video games are now more interesting due to the environment and characters which are capable of adapting to the changing situations. These algorithms help to generate behaviors which are not only intelligent but also responsive and make your interactions as a player more interesting. AI is used to make non-player characters (NPC’s) easy to interact with than ever.

Music has and will always be an important part of society as long as human beings exist. However, as society changes in many aspects, music also evolves to meet its new needs and demands. For quite a while now, AI has been a buzzword in the technology space. It is increasingly becoming a talk of almost every industry primarily due to its ability to offer automation services, ease responsibilities and offer innovative workflows. The entry of this new technology into the music industry is important due for a few reasons. Although to some it may sound like cheap science fiction, it is true that we can have robots capable of creating songs, playing music and AI-enhanced robots writing song lyrics. Such practices are not new in the music industry.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been gaining momentum by the day thanks to the support it has gained from big tech companies. Facebook is among the companies that have invested a lot of resources in this technology. The company has been experimenting with different ways AI can be deployed to solve human problems. The latest groundbreaking use of AI was seen in a partnership between Facebook and the Center for International Earth Science Information Network. The two companies wanted to get the administrative data for countries the majority of which are on the African continent.  With the use of advanced computer vision and machine learning, Facebook managed to combine satellite imagery with public census data and other data sources to create detailed information on Africa’s population density maps.
