Innovation and Technology by Command of His Majesty
The potential impact of AI on jobs and a vision where AI complements human work rather than replacing it. AI highlights the repetitive nature of many tasks in the professional world and suggests that AI can free up time by automating these tasks. We here the mentions and examples of AI applications in our daily lives, such as streaming services' recommendations, AI-powered navigation systems, and smartphones utilizing advanced AI functionalities. We must acknowledge the risks associated with AI but emphasize the significant benefits it brings also, especially once those risks are mitigated. The overall message is that AI can enhance productivity and improve our lives when deployed responsibly!! What is your thoughts?
Farming efficiency increased by AI robots
Applying robotics and AI to field management can make farming more efficient, sustainable and productive. Lightweight, autonomous mapping and monitoring robots operating across the UK can spend hours on the field in all conditions and significantly reduce soil compaction. These systems can digitise the field, providing farmers with data to improve weed and pest management. If these systems become widely used, they could contribute to agricultural and horticultural productivity, reduce the pressure of labour shortages and better preserve the environment
Deep learning AI could improve breast cancer screening
AI could transform how diseases are detected, prevented, and treated. Doctors are testing if deep learning can be applied to breast cancer screening. Currently, every mammogram is double-checked by radiologists but this is labour-intensive and causes diagnosis delays. A UK medical technology company is working with the NHS to test AI for the second screening, meaning greater numbers of patients could be screened faster and clinicians could spend more time with patients and provide faster access to treatment
AI helps accelerate the discovery of new medicines
Significant time and resources are currently needed to develop new and effective medicines. AI can accelerate the discovery of new medicines by quickly identifying potential biologically active compounds from millions of candidates within a short period. Scientists may also have succeeded in using generative AI to design antibodies that bind to a human protein linked to cancer
AI is used in the fight against the most serious and harmful crimes
The Child Images Abuse Database uses the powerful data processing capabilities of AI to identify victims and perpetrators of child sexual abuse. The quick and effective identification of victims and perpetrators in digital abuse images allows for real world action to remove victims from harm and ensure their abusers are held to account. The use of AI increases the scale and speed of analysis while protecting staff welfare by reducing their exposure to distressing content.
AI increases cyber security capabilities
Companies providing cyber security services are increasingly using AI to analyse large amounts of data about malware and respond to vulnerabilities in network security at faster-than-human speeds. As the complexity of the cyber threat landscape evolves, the pattern-recognition and recursive learning capabilities of AI are likely to play an increasingly significant role in proactive cyber defence against malicious actors.
