Report Overview: Artificial Intelligence Market


The global artificial intelligence market size was valued at USD 38.8 billion in 2020 and looks set to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 42.1% from 2021 to 2027. The continuous research and innovation directed by the tech giants are driving the adoption of advanced technologies in industry verticals, such as automotive, healthcare, retail, finance, and manufacturing. However, technology has always been an essential element for these industries, but AI has brought technology at the center of the organizations. For instance, from self-driving vehicles to crucial life-saving medical gear, AI is being infused virtually to every apparatus and program. AI is proven to be the significant revolutionary element of the upcoming digital era. Tech giants like Amazon.com, Inc.; Google LLC; Apple Inc.; Facebook; International Business Machines Corporation; and Microsoft are investing significantly in the research and development of AI. These companies are working for making AI more accessible for enterprise use-cases.

The essential facet accelerating the rate of innovation in the field of AI is accessibility to historical datasets. Since the data storage and recovery has become more economical, healthcare institutions and government agencies are building unstructured data accessible to the research domain. From historic rain trend to clinical imaging, researchers are getting access to rich datasets. The next-generation computing architectures, with access to rich datasets, are encouraging information scientists and researchers to innovate faster.

Furthermore, progress in profound learning and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) has also fueled the adoption of AI in several industries, such as aerospace, healthcare, manufacturing, and automotive. ANN is substituting conventional machine learning systems to evolve precise and accurate versions. For instance, recent advancements in computer vision technology, such as Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) and Single Shot MultiBox Detector (SSD), have led to digital image processing techniques. For instance, images and videos which are taken in low light or low resolution can be transformed into HD quality by employing these techniques. The continuous research in computer vision has built the foundation for digital image processing in security and surveillance, healthcare, and transportation, among other sectors. Such emerging machine learning methods are anticipated to alter the manner AI versions are trained and deployed.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak as a pandemic, causing a massive impact on businesses and humankind. This pandemic has emerged as an opportunity for AI-enabled computer systems to fight against the epidemic as several tech giants and start-ups are working on prevent, mitigate, and contain the virus. For instance, the Chinese tech giant Alibabas research institute Damo Academy has developed a diagnostic algorithm that can detect new coronavirus cases with the chest Computed Tomography (CT) scan. The AI model used in the system has been trained with the sample data from over 5,000 positive coronavirus cases. For another instance, in December 2019, BlueDot, a Canadian start-up that has developed an AI platform for detection of infectious diseases, predicted the outbreak of COVID - 19 infections before the pandemic statement released by WHO.

COVID-19 outbreak is expected to stimulate AI market growth of next-generation tech domains, including AI, owing to the mandated work-from-home (WFH) policy due to this pandemic. For instance, LogMeIn, Inc., a U.S.-based company that provides Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and cloud-based customer engagement and remote connectivity and collaboration services, has experienced a significant increase in new sign-ups across its all product portfolios amid the pandemic. Also, tech companies are expanding their product offerings and services to widen availability across the globe. For instance, in April 2020, Google LLC launched an AI-enabled chatbot, called Rapid Response Virtual Agent for call centers. This chatbot is built to respond to issues customers might be experiencing due to coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak over voice, chat, and other social channels.
