AlphaGo, a program built by Google DeepMind, became the first
program to beat a professional Go player.
AI is used to improve search engines by Google
Wikipedia uses AI to identify inaccurate or damaged articles.
Chat Bots simulate an intelligent conversation with one or more human
users
One such example is AI-driven web site creation. For example if you
sign up for The Grid, Molly your AI web designer will ask you
questions about branding, colors, layout and content, and then, based
on pre-programmed algorithms, automatically create an aesthetic
website for you. You can ask Molly to update the website as many
times as you like, until you get it just right.

8. Rails 5

9. Rails 5
The newest version of Rails, Rails 5, came with some interesting
additions that web developers should get excited about
Turbolinks, allows developers to fetch full HTML pages directly
from the Rails stack
When the user navigates between pages, it replaces only the
body of the page and merges the headers with AJAX, instead
of doing a full page load.
If the user navigates to a page that they’ve already viewed in
that session, it displays a cached version of CSS and JS and
then checks for new content in the background

experience
