Today, we’re speaking with Craig Cartwright, lead project manager at Darvis. In this episode of the Telaid Tech Connect Podcast, we explore AI, computer vision, and machine learning and how these technologies work together to solve critical business problems. Craig also discusses the industries using AI and some of the critical business applications.

 

IN THIS EPISODE: 

 

[03:38] What is the definition of AI? What is computer vision and what is machine learning? [09:00] Which industries are ripe for AI applications and what are some of the use cases? [17:40] How does computer vision support visibility and better management of the supply chain? [19:00] In what ways does AI support loss prevention and security? [21:00] How do business and personal begin to blend in the world of AI, virtual reality, the metaverse and augmented reality?  [24:00] What will these technologies look like in five years?

 

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS: 

 

AI is the simulation of human intelligence by machines. Whereas traditionally computer algorithms focused on one process at a time, there is now a focus on building computer intelligence that can consider multiple factors simultaneously.  Machine learning is a branch of AI that focuses on using data and algorithms to mimic the way humans learn. It attempts to simulate human behavior and learning for artificial intelligence. Deep learning is a subset of machine learning and artificial intelligence that seeks to mimic the functioning of the human brain based on artificial neural networks. Computer vision is an interdisciplinary scientific field that deals with how computers can gain that high-level understanding from digital images or videos. It seeks to understand and automate tasks like the human visual system can, either through machine learning, deep learning or other artificial intelligence techniques. We have seen how computer vision technologies bring efficiency to processes in healthcare, logistics, and retail. Tracking is vital for them and, through AI and particularly computer vision, they can track information with greater efficiency and accuracy.
