Talking to a Robot Doesn’t Mean You’re Crazy-- If you’ve ever talked to a robot, you might have been worried that you were crazy. After all, who talks to machines? But, just like talking to another human being, talking with a robot is actually quite normal. Studies have shown that people who talk to robots for as little as five minutes feel more comfortable and less stressed than people who don’t talk to them. And it makes sense. After all, the world is moving towards digital assistants like Amazon's Alexa and Google Home. These are devices that can answer questions and control appliances-think of your own personal assistant! So, if a machine can do tasks for us, why not chat with it?

INTRODUCTION--

Not a dog's best friend

Over the past few years, the number of people using virtual assistants like Alexa, Siri, and Google Home has increased exponentially. In fact, a recent study by eMarketer reveals that more than 20 per cent of Americans will use a virtual personal assistant (VPA) in the next three years. If you’re one of the millions of people who have begun using virtual assistants to answer questions, control household appliances, read news, and more, you’re not alone. Just like you, these A.I. bots are changing the way we live. Here are five ways they’re already changing your life.

Robotic Care is on the Rise--

With the help of a VPA, you can get all of your work done without leaving your home. But, what about when it’s time for human touch? If you want to take advantage of any care you might need in the future, you can even choose to enrol in robotic care. That way, when it comes time to implant an artificial eye or take on some other procedure that requires surgery, your VPA will first use its AI abilities to assess what needs to be done. Then, it will tell a robot which is prepped and ready to go at all times and programmed with your medical history how to proceed. Since this process is carried out by a robot instead of a human doctor, the risk of infection is eliminated! This makes it possible for more people who live far away from hospitals or clinics with skilled surgeons and doctors to receive quality medical care from their own homes.

  • Turn up the heat with your voice and see who is at your front door when you are away from home?

  • It's easier than it might sound.

  • Here are five ways you can make your home smarter.

  • 1: Get a smart speaker.

  • Devices like Amazon Echo and Google Home do more than just answer trivia questions.

  • They can turn on TVs and stereos and control lights and temperate.

  • They function as the hub for all your smart tech to connect to. But to do all that,

you may need some other gadgets such as the following.

  • 2: Try smart plugs and power strips.

  • They are easy to use and affordable.

  • Plug a regular appliance into it like light or your coffee maker. Because the plug is connected to the internet, you can turn things on from anywhere with your phone.

  • 3: Use smart bulbs.

  • They have a wireless connection right in the bulb so you can control them with an app or smart speaker.

  • They are energy efficient, can change colours and can follow a schedule to

make your house look active when you are away.

  • 4: Install video doorbells and smart locks.

  • These doorbells let you use your phone, see what's happening outside your door and talk with people even when you are not at home plus they playback the video.

  • The locks can be opened and closed with an app. If you can afford it, get a full home security system that includes all of this plus motion sensors and professional monitoring.

  • 5: Upgrade to a smart thermostat.

  • It only schedules the heat and air conditioning, it can monitor energy use and sense when someone is at home. Some even connect with your phone's location services to prep the house as you get near, so it's very eco friendly.

Tech Addiction is on the Rise--

Technology addiction is on the rise, with many people experiencing withdrawal symptoms when they’re away from their devices. People are constantly checking their phones, tablets, and computers for updates. And when they’re not in front of a screen, they’re talking about what they saw online. In fact, one study estimates that more than half of U.S. adults use the internet “almost constantly throughout the day for things such as work, socializing, entertainment and shopping." People who don't manage their digital lives appropriately risk developing a dependence on technology that can have negative impacts on relationships and mental health outcomes like depression and anxiety.

New Ways to Stay Connected--

Virtual assistants have been causing some serious waves. It’s estimated that there are more than 7 billion active smartphone users worldwide. And as these virtual assistants become more popular, we’re finding new ways to stay connected. For example, with voice-activated services like Google Home and Amazon Echo, people are finding new ways to take on routine tasks without having to use their hands.

Virtual Assistants Are Becoming Personal Advisors--

Virtual assistants are a great way to keep your life organized. Whether you’re out and about, on the go, or just want to relax at home, these bots are always available to answer your questions and take care of things for you. Virtual assistants can help you learn more about the world around you by providing access to important information about local events, weather reports, or traffic conditions. Plus, they can help remind you of tasks that need to be done throughout the day.

Virtual Assistants Are Making Decisions for You--

Virtual assistants are making more and more decisions for you. Need something to watch? Alexa can help. Looking for the nearest coffee shop? Google's got it. Even if you don't have a virtual assistant, they're still making decisions for you. Websites like Amazon use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to predict what products you'll like based on your purchase history. And that's just scratching the surface of what's possible with VPA technology in the future.

Bottom line--

Virtual assistants are here to stay Technology is an undeniable part of our lives. It’s made life easier and helped us communicate faster. In the next few years, it’s safe to say that virtual assistants will continue to change our lives in ways we can’t yet imagine.
