The 'Big Little' Problem In HARNESSING AI To Revolutionise Workplaces
Electronics For You
|July 2024
As AI advances, exemplified by ChatGPT-4, job roles are evolving. Yet, there is significant potential to enhance productivity by synergising human intelligence with Al. Concurrently, efforts to resolve chiprelated challenges persist, driving the continuous improvement of electronics for a promising future.
Imagine a world where artificial intelligence (AI) not only emulates human intelligence but also enhances its performance with each interaction, constantly improving over time. This concept might seem familiar as AI has been a topic of discussion for decades, yet recent developments are propelling us towards a pivotal moment in its evolution. One such indicator of this shift is a report by Goldman Sachs, which suggests a staggering potential loss of 300 million jobs worldwide due to AI advancements. Despite these alarming predictions, there is a silver lining: AI has the power to significantly boost efficiency and effectiveness in our work—as a digital assistant, challenging the notion that it could replace us outright.
As we delve deeper into the realm of AI, recent updates such as the release of ChatGPT-4 and its predecessor, ChatGPT-3.5, exemplify the rapid progress in generative AI models. These advancements are not just technical milestones; they represent a paradigm shift, augmenting human intelligence and driving productivity. This ongoing evolution echoes the transformative impact of the Industrial Revolution, suggesting that AI could enable unprecedented levels of automation in various business processes, from operations, sales and marketing to accounting, finance, and beyond.
A new era of productivity
Every piece of data around, from weather updates, supply chain advancements or disruptions, market trends to social media buzz and breaking news, holds the potential to propel a business forward. Within enterprises, data streams in constantly through emails, instant messages, data from ERP and control systems, departmental reports, yet a staggering 95% of it barely sees the light of day in terms of its full potential use. This reality begs the question of how we can harness this vast sea of information to our advantage.

DUAL-TONE SINGLE BELL For Two Doors
In modern homes, apartments, and offices, multiple entrance doors are common. Traditionally, each door requires a separate doorbell, which increases cost and can confuse residents. Hearing a bell without knowing whether it is the main entrance or the back door is a frequent inconvenience. To address this, a single bell device has been designed for two doors, using a common bell that produces two distinct sound patterns depending on which door's switch is pressed. Fig. 1 shows the device prototype without its transformer.
