Study Notes
Artificial Intelligence
- Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a branch of computer science focused on making computers behave like humans.
- AI aims to create intelligent machines capable of tasks humans consider intelligent.
- AI research involves creating systems that mimic human thought, understand speech, and perform tasks surpassing human capabilities.
- Turing's Test: a test proposed by a British mathematician to analyze a computer's potential for human-like intelligence.
- A computer passes the test if a panel believes it possesses human intelligence.
- The test evaluates if a computer can convincingly impersonate a human through written communication.
- Application of AI
- Game Playing: Programming computers to play games like chess. Deep Blue, an IBM computer, famously beat chess world champion Gary Kasparov in 1997.
- Speech Recognition: Computers recognizing human speech to perform tasks. Speech recognition, while initially promising replacing keyboards, fell short of expectations for general use.
- Natural Language Understanding (NLU): AI systems understanding natural human language. Progress in NLU is still ongoing.
- Computer Vision: AI making decisions about physical objects and scenes from images.
- Expert Systems: Programming computers to make decisions in real-life situations (e.g., medical diagnosis). Not as successful as initially anticipated.
- Heuristic Classification: A type of expert system that classifies information into categories using multiple sources (e.g., credit card approval).
