AI and IoT in Automation and Security: A Vision for Next-Generation Applications.

This paper explores the implications of marrying Internet of Things (IoT) with artificial intelligence (AI) in the realms of automation and security and what it entails. It presents an innovative application description arising from this technology convergence and its future-generation applications. It is found that Al brings strong cyber security, predictive maintenance and decision-making capabilities to the table due to its advanced algorithms and machine learning (ML) models. IoT has the potential to allow businesses to extract and generate big data, automate processes and monitor in real-time thousands and even millions of devices at once. It is believed that smart city, standalone systems and user experience are quite consumer-friendly. Importantly, the study also assesses facets such as data protection and system interoperability. The results include achieving significant 95.8% accuracy in anomaly detection and 93.4% accuracy in predictive maintenance, showcasing the efficacy of AI models in enhancing system reliability and operational efficiency. Vigorous eneryption protocol performance ensures data security, thus addressing issues of privacy. The findings underscore the transformative potential of Al-IoT integration in next-generation automation and security applications.
