The machine learning job market is projected to be worth $31 billion by 2024 – at an annual growth rate of 40 per cent over the last six years.
Amidst the fast-paced advancements in technology, Artificial intelligence (AI) has been the most revolutionary creation and is expected to have a more prominent impact on the evolution of mankind. Artificial intelligence has the potential to drastically improve the efficiency of a workplace by augmenting the work humans do. By taking over repetitive tasks of business operations, AI frees up the human workforce and allows them to focus on tasks involving creativity and empathy.
In simpler words, AI is the domain of computer science that aims at turning computers into intelligent machines. AI and related technologies like Machine Learning (ML) are capable of duplicating human behavior with the use of advanced algorithms and providing solutions to complicated problems and further developing stimulations.
THE AGE OF AI
Increased technological investments, more internet penetration and the improvement in the overall digital infrastructure have prompted the massive inclusion of AI in mainstream operations.
The AI market globally was nearly $ 59.67 billion in 2021 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 39.4 per cent to reach around $ 422.37 billion by 2028. According to the International Data Corporation (IDC), the AI market in India is projected to grow at a CAGR of 20.2 per cent to reach $ 7.8 billion by 2025 from $ 3.1 billion in 2020.
