The artificial intelligence it stands as the great technological protagonist of the coming years. Together with deep learning, the ability to analyze the huge amounts of data that are created daily will become an easy task to perform, thus allowing machines to know both recognizing patterns as learning new actions even if they are not specifically scheduled.
Advances that are now also coming to areas of creation. Artificial intelligence challenges the human imagination, and experts date for the year 2049 the creation of first best-seller where the author is a machine.
An artificial intelligence that already creates its own content
It may seem that the arrival of artificial intelligence working environment it is a question of the future, but nothing could be further from reality. There’s no need to be scared, but it’s already here, and it’s barely even noticed.
Helping us to simplify and automate certain tasks, this technology is used in different workspaces, such as advertising, where through the context of conversations on social networks it is known how consumers feel about the products; the journalism, where artificial intelligence is used to automate the production of news; in the music, producing new instrumental sounds; or in the fashion, to create new designs.

We must not be negative about the advances and progress of artificial intelligence. To grow and be enriched by it may perhaps be the destiny of humanity. A relationship where this technology gradually begins to show its most creative side.
Proof of this has been the award that a literary magazine recently awarded the author of a poem without the judges themselves knowing who was behind those verses was a machine.
An award that supports the predictions of more than 350 surveyed experts who talk about up to five milestones that artificial intelligence will achieve in the future: Win the World Series of Poker in 2020, writing a high school essay in 2026, successfully imitate a specific artist and generate a pop songone or two years later, and until produce a creative video in 2028.
2049: Best-seller hits New York Times
Five milestones that in 30 years will also accompany the first best-seller written by an artificial intelligence. 2049 it is the year in which experts consider that this technology will have the capacity to become the author of a novel or short story able to get on the New York Times bestseller list.
Undoubtedly, good news for the future of technology, but about which authors and writers maintain their uncertainty. Will technology’s literary creation surpass human?
