Machine learning (ML) is an emerging artificial intelligence (AI) technology which is being adopted aggressively by retail, transportation (especially airlines), and financial services companies operating in India. In 2018, this resulted in the creation of ~0.18 Mn t- ~0.2 Mn new jobs, for professionals wh- have skills and expertise in machine learning applications.
Global market insights:
The global machine learning market is expected t- reach a value of INR 543.18 Bn by the end of 2023, from INR 91.83 Bn in 2017, expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of nearly 42.99%. This growth is attributed t- technological advancements, and its proliferation in the field of data generation.
India market insights:
In India, though the adoption of AI applications is still at a nascent stage, it is anticipated that the market will grow at a high rate in the coming years. Among the various AI technologies being implemented in India, the highest investments are in the field of machine learning applications. In India, investments in artificial intelligence (which was INR 773.64 Bn in 2017) is expected t- expand at a CAGR of 33.49% during the 2018-2023 period. The reason behind such high anticipated investments is the growing popularity of AI technologies, especially ML applications, across business functions like finance, accounting, general management, IT, operations, and administration.
Key growth drivers of the market:
- The implementation of machine learning reduces the chances of human error. Also, it makes machines smarter, thereby reducing their reliance on operators. In a way, machine learning enhances technicians' accuracy and efficiency, owing t- which many companies are switching from traditional data interpretation methods, t- machine learning. This, in turn, is providing growth opportunities for the market in India.
- Cloud-based analytics, when used in conjunction with machine learning, helps analysts identify anomalies in real time, s- that they can be rectified swiftly. The introduction of the concept of stream-based analytic platforms has opened up new avenues for the extensive use of machine learning applications in various sectors of the Indian market.
Key deterrents t- the growth of the market:
Most machine learning applications are interlinked with cloud-based analytics. In order t- update customer information on cloud-based platforms, front line employees ask customers t- provide their personal details (such as social security numbers, financial information, etc.). However, customers are often reluctant t- share such information, owing t- concerns regarding privacy. Customers' apprehensions regarding the safety of their information hinders the implementation of machine learning applications.
