AI
Even if you don't use your computer daily, you're likely interacting with AI in many ways, often without even realizing it! Here's a breakdown of how and why you use it, even as an occasional computer user: How You Use AI (Even Without Daily Computer Use): * Your Smartphone: This is probably your most frequent AI interaction. * Voice Assistants (Siri, Google Assistant, Alexa): When you ask for directions, play music, set a timer, or call someone using your voice, you're using AI. * Camera Features: Face recognition for unlocking your phone, portrait mode (blurring backgrounds), and scene optimization (adjusting settings for different photos) all use AI. * Predictive Text and Autocorrect: When your phone suggests the next word or corrects a typo, that's AI at work, learning from your typing habits. * Personalized Recommendations: App stores, music streaming services, and video platforms suggest things you might like based on your past activity – powered by AI. * Spam Filters: Your email and text messages use AI to identify and filter out unwanted spam. * Online Shopping: * Product Recommendations: Websites suggesting "customers who bought this also bought..." or "you might be interested in..." are using AI to analyze your Browse and purchasing history. * Chatbots: Many customer service interfaces now use AI-powered chatbots to answer common questions. * Streaming Services (Netflix, Spotify, YouTube): * Content Recommendations: The "what to watch next" or "discover new music" features are highly sophisticated AI systems that learn your preferences and suggest content you're likely to enjoy. * Navigation Apps (Google Maps, Apple Maps): * Traffic Prediction: AI analyzes real-time and historical traffic data to predict congestion and suggest the fastest routes. * Route Optimization: Finding the most efficient way to get from point A to point B involves complex AI algorithms. * Social Media: * Content Curation: The specific posts and ads you see in your feed are determined by AI algorithms that try to show you what's most engaging to you. * Face Tagging: AI helps identify and tag people in photos. * Banking and Finance: * Fraud Detection: Banks use AI to identify unusual spending patterns that might indicate fraudulent activity. * Smart Home Devices: * If you have a smart thermostat (like Nest), smart lighting, or a smart speaker, AI is managing and learning from your preferences to automate tasks. Why Do We Use AI? The Benefits: The "why" boils down to making our lives easier, more efficient, and more personalized: * Automation and Efficiency: AI can automate repetitive tasks, saving time and resources. This is why it's so prevalent in things like spam filtering or customer service. * Personalization: AI can tailor experiences to individual preferences, whether it's recommending a movie, suggesting a product, or curating your social media feed. This makes interactions more relevant and enjoyable. * Problem Solving and Decision Making: AI can analyze vast amounts of data much faster and more accurately than humans, leading to better insights and decisions. This is crucial for things like medical diagnostics or financial fraud detection. * Enhanced User Experience: From voice commands to predictive text, AI makes technology more intuitive and user-friendly, allowing you to interact with devices in a natural way. * Safety and Security: AI plays a vital role in identifying threats, whether it's cybersecurity, financial fraud, or even predicting natural disasters. * Accessibility: AI can provide tools for people with disabilities, such as text-to-speech, speech-to-text, or visual recognition for the visually impaired. * Innovation: AI is a driving force behind new technologies and scientific breakthroughs, enabling advancements in fields from medicine to space exploration. In essence, even if you're not actively "using" AI in the sense of programming it, you're constantly benefiting from its integration into the everyday technology around you. It's designed to make your digital interactions smoother, more intelligent, and more tailored to your needs. -

ID card as a picture in the phone?
Topic of my OP was not so much photos of passport of a foreigner. I know about this. Topic was photos of Thai ID cards (and of pink card or DL). By far the best answer came ftom @Upnotover And I think a simple photo of an ID card in the phone is not usually considered sufficient identification (by police, hotels, in business) - or am I wrong? -

Report Cabinet Approves Measures to Shield Youths from E-Cigarettes
Didn't know it was legal to vape in schools. Think I'll pop down to my local one tomorrow to stock up before they ban it. Looking forward to hearing their evidence-based claims about the dangers of vaping.
