AI/ML will create possibilities and opportunities for improving human lifestyles. AI-enabled startups will work on cost-effective solutions to solve difficult problems. Recently, many research companies are interested in providing solutions and investing a lot in AI-based startups. AI-driven products will revolutionize the "smart world." AI computing tech companies will help to model human speech recognition systems. Also, AI-based startups will focus on perception and reasoning of autonomous robotic systems. AI/ML-based tech startups will introduce smart online education systems for future pandemics.
More interestingly, people are also moving for online job opportunities and trying to work from home. Future innovation needs closer relations between academia and industry. Therefore, online platforms need to be introduced that will only focus on academia and industry linkage. Future AI tech-based startups will focus more on research and development to introduce novel products to the market. Accordingly, engineers and many other people should be trained on AI tools and techniques to introduce innovative solutions for the smart world. In addition, integration of many new technologies with AI will be made possible. AI with IoT, smart cities, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), wireless sensor networks, software-defined networks, network management, vehicular ad hoc networks, flying ad hoc networks, wireless communication technologies, ML, reinforcement learning, federated learning and other mechanisms will introduce new technological products.
