Artificial intelligence has quickly become a feature of everyday life: Using face ID to unlock a phone, communicating with online chatbots, and letting “smart” appliances help manage our homes are just a few of the ways that we interact with AI regularly. Forward-looking businesses are also using AI to transform their operations and gain a competitive edge.

There’s nothing new, for example, about a carrier’s ability to monitor the interior temperature and humidity of a shipping container while in transit.

BIMCO forecasts demand growth in 2018 of 4% to 4.5%, against a supply fleet growth of 3.9%. This supply increase takes into account the “delivery flurry” last month, which added some 254,000 teu, or 1.2%, of capacity.
