Nice post @User this just goes to show that the big companies are investing heavily in AI. It makes perfect sense and Samsung is not the only big business doing this either. Just this week we learned that Facebook had approached a number of US banks seeking a deal to integrate banking services into the Facebook Messenger product. A deal like this would increase spending on the Facebook platform and boost ecommerce in general as many online businesses could leverage the new banking features to increase sales.

We know that AI is only as good as the data presented to it. During the next eight years, the amount of digital data produced will exceed 40 zettabytes, which is the equivalent of 5,200 GB of data for every man, woman and child on Earth, according to an updated Digital Universe study. A large portion of this data presents a huge opportunity for business to gain insights into consumers and their behavior. Have a read of the article below to gain an insight into the types of data that will be produced and you can really start understand why the need for AI.
