Smart Artificial Intelligence – Artificial Intelligence and Smart Technology
Smart assistants are getting smarter
How good is the general knowledge of digital voice assistants from Alexa and Co? The US digital agency Stone Temple investigated this question for the second time. To answer them, different language assistants were asked the same 5,000 questions about general factual knowledge. The Google Assistant performed best on the smartphone with a response rate of 77.2 percent - of which just over 95 percent were correct. Siri came last in the study (40 percent - 80 percent of which were correct). A comparison with the previous year shows that the learning curve for all assistants is pointing upwards.
How smartphone users benefit from AI
Artificial intelligence or machine learning was one of the big topics at this year's Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. The new technology has long since arrived on smartphones and in the minds of users, as Deloitte's Global Mobile Consumer Survey shows. Around 24,600 smartphone owners from 16 industrialized countries, including Germany, were surveyed for the study. Of these, 65 percent have already used machine learning-based smartphone applications - the Staista graphic shows which ones have the greatest popularity and the greatest reach.
Are the artificial songwriters coming?
The year is 2025, Helene Fischer has just received the Echo for her last number 1 album. But something is different than usual: the album was written entirely by Silveriron 1.0, an artificial intelligence (AI). Nonsense? Maybe, but 23 percent of the approximately 1,100 respondents to a recent survey by the auditing firm PwC can certainly imagine such a scenario. The study participants are similarly optimistic about solving climate change or curing cancer through AI power. We will soon know whether this will actually happen.
Smart health isn’t taking off yet
Germans are not comfortable with the digitalization of the health sector. Even the evaluation of vital data using smartphones or wearables is met with great skepticism by many. 57 percent would only use this if there was complete data security. The rejection of care robots and artificial intelligence is even more vehement, as the infographic, which was created in collaboration with our customer BearingPoint, shows.
