Study Notes
What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)
- Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the science and engineering of making intelligent machines, creating devices controlled by intelligent software that think and act like humans.
- The Turing Test is a test of AI, where an observer interacts electronically with a human and a computer, and if they cannot tell which responses are human and which are machine, the machine is viewed as intelligent.
Applications of Artificial Intelligence
- AI is widely used for various tasks, including diagnosing illness, financial forecasting, scheduling routes for delivery vehicles, and credit authorizations.
- Neural Networks are AI systems that attempt to imitate the human brain, recognizing patterns in data and making progressive leaps in associations and predictions.
- Neural Networks are used in handwriting, speech, and image recognition, medical imaging, crime analysis, biometric identification, and vision systems.
Types of Artificial Intelligence
- Expert Systems are software programs that can make decisions and draw conclusions, similar to a human expert, consisting of a knowledge base and an inference engine.
- Intelligent Agents are programs that perform specific tasks to help make a user's work environment more efficient or entertaining, such as application assistants, shopping bots, entertainment bots, and chatterbots.
AI Systems
- IBM's Watson computer is an AI application that mimics human intelligence.
- Loebner Prize is a gold medal awarded to the developer of the first computer to pass the Turing Test, which has not yet been awarded.
History of AI
- Early advances in AI were in the area of game playing, namely chess, with today's chess-playing programs able to beat chess masters.
