Newer technologies are evolving every day across the globe. They have benefitted mankind in the
                  field of science, media, telecom, medicine, study, applying for jobs and many more. The evolution of
                  technology in the last two decades has been very fast, changing the way we interact with the world
                  around us. To keep ourselves updated, it is important for us to know about the latest technological
                  developments.

                  Artificial Intelligence

                  Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a branch of computer science that pursues the
                  creation of computers and machines that are as intelligent as human beings.
                  AI machines are as smart and intelligent as the human brain and react like
                  humans.
                  AI is a part of almost everything we use today, such as smartphones, cars and banks.

                     AI is used as image recognition for face unlock, in smartphones.


                     Virtual assistant apps in smartphones use AI. Siri and Alexa are very popular examples.
                     Navigation apps in smartphones, like Google Maps, use AI.


                     AI is used for online shopping and advertising.
                      Many of the latest cars use AI-powered safety functions.          Alexa              Siri


                     Language translation software relies on AI.

                     Many AI games like Emoji Scavenger Hunt and Quick Draw
                     are becoming popular.                                           Google Maps    Emoji Scavenger Hunt

                     Many science fiction movies use and show AI.

                  Robotics

                  Robotics is a branch of engineering that uses technologies such as Artificial
                  Intelligence and Machine Learning. It deals with the design, construction,
                  operation, and application of robots. Nowadays, robots are used to build
                  cars, manufacture and pack items, perform surgeries, etc.
                  They  are  also  used  in  space  exploration,  laboratory  research,  bomb
                  dispersal,  farming,  mining,  etc.  Household  robots, like  cooking  bots,
                  lawn-mower, and vacuum bots, have proved to be helpful assistants.
                  A robot may resemble a human, or it may be in the form of a robotic application, such as robotic
                  process automation (RPA).

                  Robotic Process Automation

                  Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is a software robot running on a physical or virtual machine that
                  mimics human actions. With RPA, software users create software robots that can learn, mimic, and
                  then execute rule-based business processes. The purpose of RPA is to transfer the execution of
                  the process from humans to robots. It is actually a sequence of commands executed by the robots
                  using a set of business rules. It is used in processing payroll, call centre operations, credit card
                  applications, etc.
