Abstract
The widespread use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is quietly lessening interactive communication between humans, and rapidly turning the world automotive. These advancements facilitate rapid mass production and optimize supply chain management. The ultimate goal is to enhance end-customer satisfaction, which is a primary driver for an industry to thrive and lead in the global market. Robots and data processing mechanisms are the some of the best known leading high-end technologies that make use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) for manufacturing, processing, and delivering qualitative and quantitative products with a minimal cost, labor, and time consumption. Today, even the start-ups or small businesses such as cafes, fast food centers, restaurants, etc. are making use of these technologies to start out of the crowd and grow their business rapidly.
