Summary | The Google calendar now lets users enter personal goals like exercising, skill building, and me time which the artificial intelligence algorithm then feeds into the blanks in our calendar. Users can then check whether they have completed the goal at the time the calender suggested and based on that, the calender can learn which times are likely to work out for that particular user and which are not. Users can also connect their calender to a friend's calender to figure out when they both have a gap in their schedule to meet up.

Summary | Artificial intelligence is the new big thing but it is mostly geared towards commercial services like ordering pizza, etc. Microsoft for instance proudly announced that their AI assistant can now even understand slang inputs. But this way of learning from actual users has shown to be risky when Microsoft released their AI robot Tay on Twitter and people trolled them by teaching Tay offensive things.
