The implementation of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and autonomous technologies in the mining industry started about a decade ago with autonomous trucks. Artificial intelligence, machine learning, and autonomous technologies provide many economic benefits for the mining industry through cost reduction, efficiency, and improving productivity, reducing exposure of workers to hazardous conditions, continuous production, and improved safety. However, the implementation of these technologies has faced economic, financial, technological, workforce, and social challenges. This article discusses the current status of AI, machine learning, and autonomous technologies implementation in the mining industry and highlights potential areas of future application. The article presents the results of interviews with some of the stakeholders in the industry and what their perceptions are about the threats, challenges, benefits, and potential impacts of these advanced technologies. The article also presents their views on the future of these technologies and what are some of the steps needed for successful implementation of these technologies in this sector.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are playing a major role in addressing and understanding better the COVID-19 crisis in recent days. These technologies are simulating human intelligence into the machines and consume large amounts of data for identifying and understanding the patterns and insights quickly than a human and preparing us with new kinds of technologies for preventing and fighting with COVID-19 and other pandemics. It helps a lot to notice the people who got infected by the virus and to forecast the infection rate in the upcoming days with the earlier data. Healthcare and medical sectors are in requirement of advanced technologies for taking accurate decision to manage this virus spread. AI-enabled technologies are working in a talented way to do things intelligently like human intelligence. Thus, the AI-enabled technologies are employed for attaining accurate health results by examining, forecasting, and checking present infected and possibly future cases.

Abstract Background: Information technology has continued to shape contemporary thematic trends. Advances in communication have impacted almost all themes ranging from education, engineering, healthcare, and many other aspects of our daily lives. Method: This paper attempts to review the different dynamics of the thematic IoT platforms. A select number of themes are extensively analyzed with emphasis on data mining (DM), personalized healthcare (PHC), and thematic trends of a select number of subjectively identified IoT-related publications over three years. In this paper, the number of IoT-related-publications is used as a proxy representing the number of apps. DM remains the trailblazer, serving as a theme with crosscutting qualities that drive artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and data transformation. A case study in PHC illustrates the importance, complexity, productivity optimization, and nuances contributing to a successful IoT platform. Among the initial 99 IoT themes, 18 are extensively analyzed using the number of IoT publications to demonstrate a combination of different thematic dynamics, including subtleties that influence escalating IoT publication themes. Results: Based on findings amongst the 99 themes, the annual median IoT-related publications for all the themes over the four years were increasingly 5510, 8930, 11700, and 14800 for 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019 respectively; indicating an upbeat prognosis of IoT dynamics. Conclusion: The vulnerabilities that come with the successful implementation of IoT systems are highlighted including the successes currently achieved by institutions promoting the benefits of IoT-related systems like the case study. Security continues to be an issue of significant importance.

: Artificial intelligence is an emerging sector in almost all fields. It is not confined only to a particular category and can be used in various fields like research, technology, and health. AI mainly concentrates on how computers analyze data and mimic the human thought process. As drug development involves high R & D costs and uncertainty in time consumption, artificial intelligence can serve as one of the promising solutions to overcome all these demerits. Due to the availability of enormous data, there are chances of missing out on some crucial details. For solving these issues, algorithms like machine learning, deep learning, and other expert systems are being used. On successful implementation of AI in the pharmaceutical field, the delays in drug development, and failure at the clinical and marketing level can be reduced. This review comprises information regarding the development of AI, its subfields, its overall implementation, and its application in the pharmaceutical sector and provides insights on challenges and limitations concerning AI.

Attention is currently being paid to the use of smart technologies. Agriculture has provided an important source of food for humans over thousands of years, including the development of appropriate farming methods for the cultivation of different crops. The emergence of new advanced technologies has the potential to monitor the agricultural environment to ensure high-quality produce. In this context, a systematic review that aimsto study the application of various technologies and algorithms in Artificial Intelligence (AI) with the latest solutions to make the farming more efficient remains one of the greatest imperatives. Artificial intelligence can be applied directly in the field of agriculture for various operations. Amid high expectations about how AI will help the common personand transform his mindset, thoughts and attitude towards the benefits that it may bring. There are certain concerns about the ill effects of such sophisticated technologies as well.This review also focuses on the activation of perceptive technologies and application of computer vision and machine learning in agriculture.
