Linux has made an enormous impact on the server market, but the same can't be said for
the desktop market — and for good reason. Despite making big steps in the last several

years, it's still tricky for the uninitiated to use, and the user interfaces of the various
distributions remain far inferior to those of Windows or Mac OS X.
While Linux very well may be technically superior to these proprietary operating systems,
its weaknesses mean that most users will find it more difficult and less appealing to work
with. That means lower productivity, which will likely cost far more than purchasing a
proprietary operating system with which your staff is familiar (Rubens, 2017).
The main theme is about the use of the linux operating system

I fully support the use of technology in organizations, although there are some privacy

A computer powered with NLP can successfully spot spam in your email, tag the part of a
conversation that contains a verb or a noun, and spot an entity like the name of a person
or a company (called named entity recognition). All these achievements have found
application in tasks such as spam filtering, predicting the stock market using news articles,
and de-duplicating redundant information in data storage.
Things get more difficult for NLP when translating a text from another language and
understanding who the subject is in an ambiguous phrase. For example, consider the
sentence, “John told Luca he shouldn’t do that again.” In this case, you can’t really tell
whether “he” refers to John or Luca. Disambiguating words with many meanings, such as
considering whether the word mouse in a phrase refers to an animal or a computer device,
can prove difficult. Obviously, the difficulty in all these problems arises because of the
context.
As humans, we can easily resolve ambiguity by examining the text for hints about
elements like place and time that express the details of the conversation (such as
understanding what happened between John and Luca, or whether the conversation is
about a computer when mentioning the mouse). Relying on additional information for
understanding is part of the human experience. This sort of analysis is somewhat difficult
for computers.
Moreover, if the task requires critical contextual knowledge or demands that the listener
resort to common sense and general expertise, the task becomes daunting. Simply put,
NLP still has a lot of ground to cover in order to discover how to extract meaningful
summaries from text effectively or how to complete missing information from text
(dummies, 2017).
Introduction
The text talks about the form of communication between human beings, where the way
of speaking, the way of expressing feelings and the way of handling all this type of
feelings are highlighted and it emphasizes computers that do not have this form to
express a feeling but has a program called NLP that a way for machines to interact with
human beings.
It is very important to highlight what this Mr. Alan Turing does in 1950, where the main
objective is to do an artificial intelligence test in relation to communication with human
beings.

Through NLP, techniques are developed that allow the interaction between a computer
and a human through text language.
A computer powered with NLP can successfully spot spam in your email, tag the part of a
conversation that contains a verb or a noun, and spot an entity like the name of a person or
a company (called named entity recognition).

Nowadays, we can see in our computers that it has functions that make things easier, for
example there is the magnifying glass that is clicked, and information is entered by asking
something we want.

It should be noted that the machines are very fast, but there are situations where ambiguous
situations are offered and in this case the machines have the problem of processing this type of
thing properly.
IT creates new opportunities for innovation in products and services. Services which used
to be delivered in person can now be delivered over networks. Among the key levers are:

will develop as CTI (Computer Telephony Integration) and wireless PCs become more
firmly established. At another level, it permits the dispersion of work teams, thus saving
costs of relocation and travel. It has also created the mobile professional and allows
people to work effectively from home (Skyrme, 2017).
IT and its new developments and changes in companies, thus allowing e-commerce,
collapsing time and distance and allowing worker to work from home is a good tool for
new generations in systems that are leaving Updating.
