Artificial
Intelligence and Automation making revolutions in overseas shipping
Many of the processes in the shipping industry have
been in use for years, but new technologies could dramatically change the
industry operations and the ways in which it moves goods around the globe.
Do you know which are the busiest months for Ocean
Freights? It’s from September to December. In such crowded seasons, the demand
for shipping space in containers and the speed at which ship arrives at the
port can hit the companies in issues like shipment delays, more expenditures
etc.
In a retail world where Amazon and other large
retailers offer quick shipping, for free, manufacturers and retailers are at
risk of losing money and customers, if deliveries are delayed.
For an industry like cargo shipping that has used
some of the same systems for years, artificial intelligence and automation
offer an opportunity for revolution. Did you hear that Japanese shipping
companies are in the stage of making self-navigating cargo ships.
How AI
works?
We need to know about
Machine learning in order to describe this. Machine learning includes four
factors
·
Reactive Computers
Reactive computers cannot
form memory by their own or learn from past experiences, they merely react to
the world based on a pre-programmed set of algorithms. Reactive machines will never get bored, and they will not take an
interest. They will just do whatever they’ve been programmed to do, based on
set of rules. We can say they are narrow form of AI
·
Short Memory
Limited memory allows the
machines to make better decisions by looking to the past in more effective way.
For example an auto driven ship will measure the data regarding the speed and
headings of other vessels not in single moment, but can log measurements it has
taken over time to make assessment in order to establish the closest point of
approach.
·
Theory Regarding The Human Mind
Theory of mind requires machines to be able to
create representations of the world which is taken into account for the
knowledge, beliefs, emotions, and intentions of others.
If machines will ever
behave human-like artificial intelligence, they need to understand the fact
that each of us has different thoughts and feelings and may not have the same
level of knowledge that they do.
·
Self-Awareness
Self-aware machines are
aware of their own existence. To get to self-awareness, we first need a deeper
understanding of human memory, learning, and intelligence. Our understanding of
human consciousness limits our ability to replicate it with machines.
See what Macciola [chief innovation officer ABBYY]
says.
“IoT technologies allow carriers to transmit vital
stats, such as temperature, location, and power supply via satellite,” he said.
“By having this information sent to the cloud and analyzed at a central office,
carriers have real-time information as issues develop that also leads to
increased safety for port staff.” This allows processes to be automated,
helping to ensure that trucks and freight aren’t damaged en route.
