Introduction to Artificial Intelligence

AI aims to create a "Digital Brain" that mimics the biological brain's ability to think and reason.
It involves programming computers or robots to think intelligently, similar to human cognition.

Goals of Artificial Intelligence

Create Expert Systems: Systems that demonstrate intelligent behavior, can learn, explain, and advise users.
Implement Human Intelligence in Machines: Develop systems that replicate human understanding, thinking, and behavior.

Definitions of Artificial Intelligence

Various definitions categorize AI based on approaches to thinking and acting like humans.
Examples include:
- Thinking Humanly: Mimicking human thought processes.
- Acting Humanly: Creating machines that perform intelligent tasks.
- Thinking Rationally: Studying mental faculties through computational models.
- Acting Rationally: Automating activities associated with human thinking.

Understanding Intelligence

Intelligence encompasses the capabilities to:
- Calculate and reason.
- Perceive relationships and analogies.
- Learn from experiences.
- Store and retrieve information effectively.
- Solve problems and comprehend complex ideas.
- Use natural language fluently, classify, generalize, and adapt.

Examples Illustrating Intelligence

Maze Problem:
- A mouse navigating a maze exemplifies problem-solving intelligence by exploring various paths to reach cheese.
Number Sequence Problem:
- Solving the sequence (1, 3, 7, 13, 21, ____) requires identifying patterns (adding consecutive even numbers) and demonstrates numerical processing capability.
Timetable Scheduling:
- Designing a timetable for many students in limited rooms highlights the complexity of scheduling, showcasing the demand for high-level problem-solving and organizational skills.
