How close are we to creating real life Jarvis?
All those who have watched at least one movie of Iron Man surely know about Jarvis, the trustworthy assistant of Iron Man. Jarvis controls the entire operation of Stark Industries, helps Tony Stark while operating his suit, hacks into machines, and all kinds of cool stuff. It gives weather predictions, calculates flight data, analyzes almost every object, and gets details about it. So, with the evolution of machine learning, the internet of things, and artificial intelligence, the question comes to many minds: How far are we from creating real-life Jarvis?
To get the answer to this question, we need to have a look at the beginning of machine learning. In 1950, Alan Turing published a paper "Computing Machinery and Intelligence" in which he asked the revolutionary question - "Can machines think?" Thus started the era of machine learning. The first glimpses of NLP (Natural Language Processing) were seen in the 1940s. Now, NLP is a part of artificial intelligence concerned with the interaction between computer and human languages. It is a way of programming computers to understand human languages. NLP is most widely used in speech recognition and machine learning. It is like a gateway between the computer and human languages. Most of the virtual assistants that we have today like Google assistant, Alexa, Siri employ the use of NLP and CNN (Convolutional Neural Networks) to use machine learning and interact with us. These assistants are pre-trained for basic tasks and then learn to help us according to our preferences by using Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence.
Considering the technological advancements in the field of Artificial Intelligence, and the introduction of quantum computing, there are still hopes that we can recreate Jarvis. So, fingers crossed!!
