Tackling information overload using Artificial Intelligence
Harnessing AI for Efficient Learning in an Age of Information Overload
In today’s world, we are bombarded with more information than ever before. There is so much to learn, so much to understand, so much to consume. It feels like we’re constantly trying to catch up and never quite succeeding. This can be extremely frustrating and lead to burnout.
This is especially true for students who are trying to learn new topics, or for professionals who are trying their best to keep up with new developments in certain domains.
One possible and upcoming way to tackle information overload is using artificial intelligence (AI). In the past few years, AI has made tremendous strides in its ability to understand and process human language. This has allowed AI to be used in a variety of different ways, including helping people learn new topics.
One of the ways AI can help people learn is by processing massive amounts of text using natural language processing (NLP). NLP is a subfield of AI that deals with understanding and manipulating human language. By understanding the structure and meaning of text, NLP can help identify important information and concepts.
This is especially useful for learning new topics, as it can help identify key concepts and ideas within a huge body of text. For example, if you’re trying to learn about the history of the United States, an AI system could read through hundreds of documents and identify the most important events and people in American history.
You can potentially identify a set of information sources across the web and hand them off to an AI engine who then becomes your sidekick and surfaces the relevant information that you are looking for. We believe this is the way forward and will allow individuals to accelerate through their learning journey as compared to their peers.
