Week 8 - BALT 4396 - Class Overview

Image
 Throughout the past eight weeks I have been a part of this class I have learned a lot about AI and its capabilities. I have explored new AI modules which have been very interesting and fun to use. I have also explored using AI in the workforce and more specifically the workforce I will be going into. With my new knowledge of AI, I will try to incorporate it into my job and see how much it can help me. I am very interested to see how far AI will be able to take us and what new capabilities will be found.

Week 8 - BALT 4396 - Using AI for Inventory in Warehousing

Image
Artificial Intelligence (AI) revolutionizes inventory management within warehousing and logistics by streamlining operations and enhancing efficiency. Through AI-driven predictive analytics, warehouses can anticipate demand fluctuations, optimize stock levels, and prevent overstocking or stockouts. Advanced algorithms analyze historical data, market trends, and even weather patterns to forecast demand with remarkable accuracy. By integrating AI-powered inventory management systems, warehouses can dynamically adjust stocking levels in real-time, ensuring optimal inventory turnover while minimizing storage costs. Furthermore, AI enables autonomous inventory control through technologies like RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) and computer vision. RFID tags and sensors track inventory movement throughout the warehouse in real-time, providing instantaneous updates on stock levels and locations. Computer vision systems equipped with cameras and image recognition software can accurately id...

Week 7 - BALT 4396 - Chat GPT

Image
 This week I took the time to explore Chat GPT and its capabilities more. I tried many different things like experimenting with anything from storytelling to solving made up problems from my field of work. It is very interesting to me how broad of a spectrum AI can be used from. I took more time solving problems in my work since this is something that could be used in my everyday life at work.  I work in warehousing so I started by asking simple questions and made my way up to more complex ones. The program had no problems answering anything. I asked it questions like "How many pallets can I store in a given space of x amount of square footage." Using this could be a large perk of companies to help solve issues they have problems solving. Any company not utilizing AI should be because it could end up being a game changer.

Week 7 - BALT 4396 - Industries Immune to AI (Written by AI)

Image
After looking at the article posted by Professor Todd Kelsey about AI threatening white collared jobs with few industries being immune, I thought it would be interesting to see what an AI take would be on the situation. I typed into ChatGPT "write two paragraphs on industries immune to AI". It is very interesting to see what it came up with, below is what ChatGPT wrote. While artificial intelligence (AI) continues to revolutionize numerous industries, there are certain sectors that remain relatively immune to its full-scale disruption. One such sector is the creative industry, where the intricate nuances of human expression and originality play pivotal roles. Fields like literature, fine arts, and music heavily rely on the depth of human emotions, experiences, and creativity, aspects that are not easily replicable by AI. While AI can aid in creative processes by providing suggestions or generating content, the essence of genuine artistic expression often eludes its capabiliti...

Week 6 - BALT 4396 - Rule of Sevens

Image
The Rule of Seven is a marketing principle that suggests that a message must be seen or heard at least seven times before it starts to sink in and prompt action from the audience. This concept underscores the importance of repetition and consistency in marketing campaigns to effectively communicate a message and drive consumer behavior. In today's saturated media landscape, where individuals are bombarded with an overwhelming amount of information daily, the Rule of Seven highlights the necessity for marketers to craft strategic and multi-channel communication strategies to cut through the noise and capture audience attention. Moreover, the Rule of Seven emphasizes the importance of building brand recognition and recall over time. By exposing consumers to a consistent message across various touchpoints such as social media, email marketing, print advertisements, and television commercials, marketers increase the likelihood of their brand or product staying top-of-mind when consumer...

Week 6 - BALT 4396 - What can we do with AI?

Image
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to revolutionize various aspects of everyday life for the general public. One significant area where AI is making strides is in transportation. Autonomous vehicles powered by AI algorithms have the potential to make roads safer, reduce traffic congestion, and decrease carbon emissions. AI-driven navigation systems optimize routes in real-time, taking into account traffic patterns, weather conditions, and road closures, thus making commuting more efficient and hassle-free. Furthermore, ride-sharing platforms leverage AI to match drivers with passengers seamlessly, enhance user experiences, and improve overall transportation accessibility. Another transformative application of AI in the general public is in education. Personalized learning platforms powered by AI algorithms adapt educational content and learning experiences to individual student needs, preferences, and learning styles. AI tutors provide instant feedback, identify areas of im...

Week 5 - How Prompt Engineering can Help AI

Image
  Prompt engineering plays a pivotal role in enhancing the capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI) systems by providing structured inputs that guide their decision-making processes. Through carefully crafted prompts, engineers can shape the direction of AI models, influencing their output towards desired outcomes. By designing prompts that encapsulate specific tasks, contexts, or objectives, engineers enable AI systems to generate more accurate, relevant, and coherent responses. Moreover, prompt engineering facilitates the alignment of AI with human intentions and values, ensuring that the technology operates in ways that are beneficial and ethically sound. Furthermore, prompt engineering empowers AI systems to adapt to diverse domains and tasks, fostering versatility and flexibility in their applications. Engineers can tailor prompts to suit different datasets, languages, and problem domains, enabling AI models to effectively navigate various challenges and environments. Thro...
