All You Need to Know About Smart Assistants

Smart devices and smartphones are slowly transitioning to the realm of Artificial Intelligence. Data scientists and technologists are researching in the field of AI to mimic human intelligence. There are many devices created to respond to human commands. This intelligence is created by scientists with cognitive learning and problem-solving. AI has already made its debut in the fields of computer science, medicine, film, and media, military and defense system, intelligent devices and robotics. Personalized service in the media and entertainment industry is used as a potent tool for extension of brand identity and ability to drive business. It is a powerful input for target marketing. Personalization of content creates integration across media platforms like digital video and television.

Digital assistants aid in the discovery of relevant content. YouTube and Netflix are using AI to transform the entertainment industry. We are amazed at the smart recommendations of videos on YouTube. All the suggestions are driven by AI. Netflix uses AI to track pre-watched shows, searched content to create a custom recommendation of other Netflix shows. AI is revolutionizing next-generation TV and video viewing. Netflix also introduced an AI-powered Dynamic Optimizer for video compression without any perceivable loss in the quality of the video. This is a great solution to watch high definition content. Home entertainment has also transformed with the introduction of AI.
