Use Ancient Intelligence to Autopilot your decisions

The modern era is an age of AI (artificial intelligence). We talk about the Internet of Things, big data, robots, etc. etc., - let’s put it this way, AI is a modern-world buzzword.

Science is already exploring human cloning – creating a genetically identical copy of a human with artificial intelligence that can think and behave like a human. That’s the level of technological innovation of toward which we are moving.

AI, however, is not an entirely new concept. The first reference of the term, artificial intelligence, was made in year 1956 at a conference at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire. Although one can argue that a lot has changed, the basic principles of artificial intelligence remain the same.

Let’s understand by way of example how a computerized decision-making process works. Let’s say you want to apply two simple principles for maintaining the centralized air-conditioning of your house. You want to turn the cooling off when the temperature goes below 74 degree Fahrenheit and keep the air-conditioning on only if the temperature goes above 78 from midnight to 6 a.m. You feed the decision criteria into your computer based on these two needs – between midnight to 6 a.m. the air-conditioning needs to be switched on only if the temperature goes above 78 degree Fahrenheit or the air-conditioner will be on every time, unless the temperature goes below 74 degrees.

Therefore, by setting certain formulas, you can create a decision making system for a machine that takes into account the necessary data, applies the principle and recommends a decision based on the principle set for it.

This is the simplest example of intelligence created artificially by the human mind through the use of technology. But with technological advancements, many more parameters or criteria of extreme complexities are added to the computer. The concept of the Internet of Things (IOT) is nothing but the expansion of the realm of artificial intelligence, where you connect a network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances, and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, enabling these things to exchange data with each other to make much more complex activities possible through internet connectivity.

Ray Dalio, an American billionaire investor, known to be among the top 100 richest persons alive, runs a private investment banking firm, Bridgewater Associates, one of the world’s biggest hedge funds with a portfolio of 160 billion U.S. dollars. If you don’t know him, Dalio is a kind of genius, known for integrating a massive amount of historical data about stocks and other financial instruments’ trading patterns with computer-driven algorithms to make investment decisions automatically through machines. In effect, Dalio has been able to brilliantly combine human intelligence with the machine intelligence, thus creating highly powerful algorithms. These algorithms take massive amounts of historical data and trends in trading commodities, stocks or other financial instruments, and based on the information, the algorithms make future profitable trading or investment decisions.

But this is not the only form of AI.
