Study Notes

Understanding Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is widely used in various applications, such as voice assistants like Amazon’s “Alexa” and Apple’s “Siri,” image recognition programs, and Twitter bots that delete hateful posts.
AI is categorized into weak AI (artificial narrow intelligence) and strong AI (artificial general intelligence).
Weak AI is designed to perform specific tasks without explicit programming and is currently the only type of AI in existence.
Strong AI aims to mimic human thinking, learn independently, and make autonomous decisions, potentially leading to technological advancements and significant changes for humanity.
Weak AI is created by training programs with large amounts of data specific to the task, such as identifying tumors in X-rays or providing real-time updates in Google Maps.
Training AI involves feeding it extensive data samples to recognize patterns and make decisions, requiring significant computing power.
Weak AI works by analyzing large data sets to recognize and respond to specific patterns, such as identifying hate speech on social media or classifying images.
Weak AI systems are highly specialized and are trained to perform individual tasks more efficiently than humans, such as playing chess or analyzing medical images.
Examples of weak AI applications include healthcare (analyzing X-rays to identify tumors), Google Maps (providing real-time street views and business information), and image classification (identifying plant species or people in photos).
AI's ability to analyze X-rays can lead to more accurate medical decisions, saving patients from unnecessary surgeries, and reducing healthcare costs.
Google Maps utilizes AI to overlay real-time street maps onto the physical world, providing additional information about businesses and services.
AI can be trained to classify images, such as identifying plant species or people in photos, demonstrating its potential in various fields.
