Amelia Swank August 3, 2023

From smart features to seamless UX, AI is reshaping web app development. Explore its significance and why you should adopt it to develop modern applications.

Robot Hand AI in Web Development

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a rapidly evolving technology that has been revolutionizing industries across the board. In particular, AI is transforming web applications development, making it more efficient and secure.

From voice assistants to chatbots, AI is empowering businesses to provide personalized user experiences through their web applications. Various AI technologies like Machine Learning (ML) and Natural Language Processing are being used to create web apps with advanced features, capable of understanding user intent to provide personalized experiences.

Some real-life examples of AI-enabled web apps are Google Assistant, Amazon's Alexa, and Google Translate. In 2022, the global market size of artificial intelligence was valued at $136.55 billion, and is forecasted to grow by a CAGR of 37.3% between 2023 and 2030.

That means, more brands are warming up to and utilizing AI to enhance the functionalities of their web apps. However, some challenges are still associated with this rapidly evolving technology, which can only be overcome with human assistance.

In this guide, we’ll explore how AI can be beneficial in developing modern web applications with enhanced functionalities, and why you should utilize it with a ‘human-in-the-loop’ approach to overcome its ethical and technical limitations.

 

Key Roles & Benefits of AI in Web App Development

 

The biggest role and advantage of using AI in developing web applications is that it streamlines and simplifies the development process through automation.

In web applications, the user interface is at the forefront, and AI helps to optimize it for a personalized experience.

Here are some more benefits and reasons to utilize AI for web development:

 

1. Improved Voice Search

 

With voice search growing and slowly replacing the traditional text-based search method, web applications need to understand user queries and their intent more clearly to provide relevant results.

That is achievable by using AI technologies like Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing like GPT to train a web application to recognize patterns in user behavior and predict what they want.

AI also generates content summaries for voice-search users to help them understand the topic better. Popular voice assistants like Siri and Alexa utilize AI to provide informative and relevant answers to users for their search queries.

 

2. Enhanced & Personalized User Experience

 

AI helps businesses collect and analyze real-time user behavior data and provide personalized recommendations based on their preferences.

Additionally, AI-powered chatbots in web apps provide quick and tailored responses to users by understanding their pain points. This enhances customer engagement and experience, freeing human resources to focus on other crucial tasks.

 

3. Reduced Development Time, Cost, and Efforts

 

Artificial intelligence helps to automate time and resource-intensive tasks like code creation, review, testing, and bug detection. As a result, less human resources are required to develop, process, and test the code during web application development. This helps organizations to reduce development cost and time with improved efficiency.

 

4. Improved Security

 

AI can quickly and efficiently identify vulnerabilities, code errors, and bugs in large amounts of data. By identifying potential threats at early stages, AI assists businesses in enhancing the security features of web applications for improved performance.

 

5. Efficient and Seamless Development

 

AI can easily create fully-functional and custom web applications by generating codes in a lesser time than human app and web developers.

Further, it can also add interactive elements, navigation layers, and other custom functionalities in web applications for quick development.

 

Top AI-powered Features in Web Apps

 

Artificial intelligence is powering web applications with advanced features, such as:

 

1. Chatbots and Virtual Assistants

 

Do you know around 74% of users prefer AI chatbots to seek answers/responses to their queries? This is because:

  • They are more effective in providing quick and helpful responses to users by understanding their intent, preferences, and needs over time. They collect and analyze data from past user interactions to improve their responses.
  • They can be used to provide 24x7 support in multiple languages.
  • They can handle multiple user interactions simultaneously, allowing businesses to scale without investing in human resources.

Some real-life examples of chatbot implementation in web apps are:

  • Walmart’s Chatbot: Allows users to find relevant products in their local stores, place order, check delivery status, cancel orders, and so on.
  • Dominos’ Chatbot: Allows users to place, customize, track, and cancel orders.
  • HDFC’s Chatbot: Help users set up new accounts, check their account balances, pay pending bills, and more.

 

2. Recommendation Systems

 

AI-powered recommendation systems can be integrated into web applications to provide personalized suggestions to users for enhanced conversions. These systems utilize ML and statistical techniques to analyze users' past purchases, search history, demographic information, and other details. Leveraging this data, they suggest products, content, or services that users are most likely interested in for cross-selling and up-selling.

One most successful example of this is Netflix. The popular on-demand streaming platform uses an AI-powered recommendation system to filter and suggest specific content to users based on their past viewing behavior.

 

3. Image Recognition and Object Detection

 

AI-powered image recognition and object detection systems interpret and analyze digital images and extract relevant features from them.

Web applications can also utilize AI for real-time object detection in live camera feeds and video streams for surveillance, interactive experiences, and so on.

Google Photos is one popular example of using AI-powered image recognition and object detection features. The application utilizes this feature for identifying objects in pictures for effective data organization and personalized recommendations.

 

Challenges of AI Integration in Web App Development

 

While AI is backing web application development with limitless possibilities, there are some challenges with its integration that you should know about and not overlook, including:

 

1. Data Quality and Preprocessing

 

AI models require a large amount of accurate, relevant, and structured data for efficient training. Often organizations struggle to access and process training data due to a lack of expert resources.

Annotators who are not experts might show data bias that can hinder the quality of labeled datasets, resulting in poor performance of AI models.

 

2. Technical Complexities and Infrastructure Requirements 

 

It requires technical expertise to choose the correct AI framework, algorithms, and tools that meet the specific requirements of the web app and integrate them.

Also, to process large amounts of data in seconds, AI models require advanced infrastructure with suitable processing capabilities, which can be a costly affair for businesses.

 

3. Data Security and Privacy Concerns

 

As AI models deal with large amounts of sensitive information, data security and privacy are a constant concern for businesses. They need to implement robust data protection measures to maintain confidentiality and mitigate the risk of unauthorized access & data breaches.

 

'Human-in-the-Loop' Approach to AI Web App Development

 

If you have wondered if AI will replace human web app developers, the answer is NO. Robots may take away some jobs, but they won't take all the jobs away in web applications development. In fact, robots will create some jobs for humans.

While artificial intelligence is an empowering technology for automating web app design and development tasks, it cannot be used alone for building apps. This is because AI cannot match human accuracy and expertise level when it comes to writing complex codes without errors.

Also, to overcome the challenges involved with AI integration in web apps, human intervention is essential. So, for efficiently developing web applications, it is crucial to use both AI and human-in-the-loop approaches simultaneously.

Here are some best practices to effectively utilize artificial intelligence in web app development following a human-in-the-loop approach:

  1. Identify suitable AI use cases for your web app 
  2. Choose the right AI models and algorithms for your web application
  3. Continuously train the AI model with relevant and high-quality data for improved performance
  4. Keep ethical considerations in mind when using AI for web app development
  5. Partner with an experienced web application development company to utilize their expertise for creating an AI-powered web app for your business.
