An Overview of Artificial Intelligence Applications in Everyday Life

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transitioned from theoretical computer science into practical applications that permeate modern daily life. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of AI applications across six key domains: healthcare, transportation, communication, entertainment, smart homes, and finance. Through examination of pre-2020 developments, we analyze how machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision, and expert systems have become integral to everyday activities. The paper synthesizes research findings to demonstrate AI's transformative impact on human society and discusses implications for future development.
