#2 📈 The 1001 applications of Artificial Intelligence and the -unique- problem they really solve (I)

AI comes to us in many different forms and colors. Is this really what most of us need?

This is way easier to guess than in previous week, right?

State of the art Artificial Intelligence (AI) is exciting and constantly anticipates the future. In fact, we seem to be living in it.

Today we can see everything from highly advanced models of autonomous driving to the generation of images from text or the generation of text that looks like we are talking to a person. And, if not, just ask a (former) Google engineer, who believes that his latest AI has feelings.

I don't know if that's possible, although it's not something I'm going to get into now.

The point is that thanks to that super-advanced AI, we seem to be living in the 22nd century already. But the reality for companies is very different. Even today, 46 out of every 100 Spanish companies do not have the necessary level of maturity in terms of digitization to think about Artificial Intelligence. And I’m pretty sure this is also the case for other countries in the world.

That is why, in this edition of Factibles we are going to see:

• Some of the coolest applications of AI.

And for the next part of this same article we will have:

• The one problem that AI solves and how we can take advantage of it.

Let's go for it!

🔥 Cooler than you think

Last June 30, Google re-released a new AI capable of explaining reasoning when solving math problems with overwhelming accuracy: they have gone from solving 7% of problems correctly to an impressive 50%. It is called Minerva.

This, which is already a milestone in itself, is even more so when we consider that these types of AIs were not expected to be available until 2025. Google has beaten all predictions by 3 years.

But this is not the result of chance.
