Study Notes

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

AI is a branch of computer science focused on creating computers that act like humans.
Turing's Test assesses if a computer exhibits human-like intelligence.
The Imitation Game, proposed by Alan Turing in 1951, is a test to determine if a computer can mimic human intelligence.
The test involves a judge communicating with two entities (one human and one computer) without knowing which is which. The judge must determine which entity is human. If the judge is unable to differentiate, the computer passes the test.
Turing's later modifications involved only one contestant, human or computer, and the judge determining the contestant's identity.
Success in this situation implies the computer is a believable human simulator.

Application of AI

Game playing is a prominent AI application.
Chess is a commonly programmed game for AI demonstration, such as IBM's Deep Blue, which beat world champion Gary Kasparov in 1997.
Speech recognition allows a computer to interpret human spoken language.
This technology aims to reduce reliance on keyboards.
Natural language understanding is vital for human-computer interaction in natural dialogue.
Research into this field is aimed at enabling computers to comprehend natural human language.

Computer Vision

Computer vision is about computers processing images and interpreting scenes.
This includes tasks like identifying and classifying objects in images.
Analysing video content and using image recognition is another computer vision function.
It is applied in augmenting reality, analyzing medical scans, and in autonomous systems.

Autonomous Systems

Autonomous systems are systems capable of acting independently, such as vehicles and robots.
Perception, decision-making, and control systems are key components.
Systems perceive surroundings using sensors and computer vision.
Robust algorithms are crucial to enabling autonomous control.

Ethical Considerations

Bias and fairness are critical in AI development.
Addressing potential biases in AI systems is vital for equitable outcomes.
Privacy and security are concerns regarding AI-powered applications.
Data protection is essential.

E-Commerce

E-commerce is a method of selling and buying goods/services.
It happens electronically using digital methods.
The methods include electronic fund transfers (EFT)
Benefits to merchants include expanded markets and reduced costs.
Benefits to consumers include better deals, choices, and rapid access to information.
Disadvantages of e-commerce are cost, security, and lack of trust.
Common types of Ecommerce include B2C (business to consumer), B2B (business to business), and C2C (consumer to consumer).

Web Technology and Internet

Web technology allows access to web pages.
Web pages are HTML documents stored on web servers.
Web servers are computers that house web pages.
HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) and HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) are fundamental web components.
URL (Uniform Resource Locator) or web addresses are unique identifiers for web pages.
Email, chat rooms, and message boards are other significant parts of the Internet.
