Publisher's Synopsis
Digital society has changed the life style. It has impacted the behavior of the learners too, and calls for redefining the higher education to respond to the innovative society. The integration of innovative skills and the life skills has become the schema of Education 4.0. Mobile technologies, Cloud computing and Artificial intelligence have become the order of the day. They are wide-ranging tools that enable people to rethink how to integrate information, analyze data and use the resulting insights to improve the decision making. Al-based Technologies are being developed and implemented to assist both authors and publishers in tackling issues related to peer review, searching published content, detecting plagiarism and identifying data fabrication. Researches are also able to address complex problems in biomedical sciences, drug combinations and predicting diseases using Al. Thus, Al not only helps to expedite scientific communication but also reduce human bias. Machines don't have emotions therefore, nothing is going to affect their performance. On the other hand, machines are deficit of compassion and sympathy and there is challenge of misuse or exploitation of these technologies. The book aims to address the issues of how to maximize the benefits of technology while avoiding potential pitfalls.
