“Why do I need AI in my life? My life is just fine without AI, I’m not sure how it helps me,” is a conversation that many people have had as artificial intelligence has become more and more prevalent in our lives.

intellithing founder Saeid Jamali, from Manchester, discusses the benefits of AI in our day-to-day life.

“Many people think of Artificial Intelligence as The Terminator or a technology that will turn against humans. They are not to be blamed because we see all those sci-fi movies that introduce AI as the supervillain of the story,” he said, “Movies give us the wrong idea about AI because in truth they’re all about co-existing and completing us in ways that we are not capable of doing on our own.

“If we leave AI on its own it will never deeply think about the concept of gravity because computers lack consciousness, but they are good at learning and finding details in human or machine-produced data on an unimaginable level.

“AI will integrate with our lives so closely that life without it will be unimaginable. In fact, take your google calendar out and set a reminder for 10 years and that time you won’t be able to think of living without your AI, and I’m not talking about some primitive technology that you call to turn your lights on and off.”

Integration of AI with neurodiversity – This means Artificial Intelligence collects data in real-time from the user to understand what problems they are facing and what the solutions to the problems are. To help them with the same day-to-day tasks that they struggle with, with clear guidance in a way that they understand. Moreover, the users can ask questions from the AI if they find it hard to cope with a situation and the AI will come up with personalised solutions based on their emotional and mental state at that moment. In another world instead of trying to treat autism, AI will translate the world to the way they understand.

Integration of AI with cars – This means you will know your clutch will break down in 15 days with a precise indication of what the cause of the breakdown will be and how to avoid it.

Integration of AI with smart meters and home appliances means you will never be surprised by your monthly bills anymore. AI will analyse and learn your use pattern and make precise predictions and adjustments to power consumption and saves you substantial amounts of money.

Integration of AI with your bank account – This means you will have a financial advisor expert in your pocket that precisely analyses your spend/income and tells you where exactly all that money is gone and will give you a spending pattern and saving suggestions far more accurate than a human expert so you will end up with a healthy amount of savings every month while enjoying life. A wealth management expert or a financial advisor is more knowledgeable than the best of humans.

Integration of AI with health – With this, health monitoring systems or any device that collects life signs can detect an organ failure minutes before its occurrence. Imagine the scenario, an elderly patient is released from the hospital but is at risk of a heart attack. With the use of Artificial Intelligence, it is possible to detect a heart attack minutes before it happens. The AI will then contact the paramedics after predicting it and unlocks the doors for them. Hence the paramedics are on the scene minutes before the heart attack happens.

Integration of AI with fitness – Why do you need a coach? Now, what if this coach of yours had the experience of a 500-year-old master? What if this master lived for 500 years and did nothing but mastering the secret to fitness and has all the answers to your questions? The answer is that it’s not written in any fitness book and no other coach knows yet. Artificial Intelligence that learns your body and behaviour beyond the ability of humans and talks to you in your native language; a personal AI fitness coach and health expert that evolves around your body for you and you only.
