Most of us are aware that artificial intelligence is playing an ever-growing role in how modern society operates. But many of us may not know how wide-ranging and eclectic its applications are. For example, BBC News recently featured a story about actors who are concerned about AI-generated “deep fakes” that can replicate an actor’s face and voice.
Some new and upcoming uses of AI have the potential to make a big positive difference in areas such as fraud control and public safety. However, others may influence human behavior in ways that are unpredictable or even disquieting. Here, 14 members of Forbes Technology Council share new and emerging applications of AI that may be new to you.
1. Guiding And Monitoring Financial Transactions
AI in the financial industry is little understood outside of the internal technical space. AI is already present in all of the plastic transactions that take place each day in the form of fraud detection and prevention.
