Ans: Artificial intelligence: It is the field of computer
science that is associated with the concept of machines "thinking
like humans" to perform tasks such as learning, problem - solving,
planning, reasoning and identifying patterns. In cargo, AI is
increasing the efficiency with predictive intelligence. Ai brings
changes to the supply chain with autonomous vehicles, helping fleet
operators reduce operating costs with and fuel consumption and plan
optimized routes for service.
- Cargo operational usage of artificial intelligence: It enriches
the relationship between the shipper and carrier with personalized
service offerings. AI provides smart infrastructure and operating
assets and the freight operators in the development of the
connected freight ecosystem, aiding autonomous fleet management and
smart logistics system, all this reduces operational
costs.
- Type of cargo handled: AI promotes smarter container shipping
like using AI logistics data will be gathered and analyzed to raise
the possibility for shippers, freight corridors and carriers can
make vastly more informed planning decisions to help optimize the
travel time, cost and resources needed for moving cargo. artificial
intelligence analyses factor how many vessels are at berth, the
number of import containers discharged on certain days, how many
exports of empty containers were received and how many gate
transactions were recorded all this helps in refined
predictions.
