Study Notes
Defining Artificial Intelligence
- Intelligence is the ability to learn and perform suitable techniques to solve problems and achieve goals in an uncertain, ever-varying world.
- Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the science and engineering of making intelligent machines, defined by John McCarthy in 1955.
- AI involves machines that can learn, at least somewhat like human beings do.
Characteristics of Artificial Intelligence
- AI is the capacity of machines to mimic human cognitive functions such as learning, problem-solving, and pattern recognition.
- AI includes various subfields, such as machine learning and natural language processing.
- AI is the application of computing to help machines solve problems in intelligent ways without humans having to hard code the desired outcomes manually.
- AI is about augmenting human intelligence by providing information and evidence that subject matter experts need to make informed decisions.
Related Aspects of Artificial Intelligence
- Computer science and electrical engineering determine how AI is implemented in software and hardware.
- Mathematics and statistics determine viable models and measure performance.
- Psychology and linguistics play an essential role in understanding how AI might work.
- Philosophy provides guidance on intelligence and ethical considerations.
AI vs. Machine Learning
- AI and machine learning are often used interchangeably, but machine learning is a subset of the broader category of AI.
- AI refers to the general ability of computers to emulate human thought and perform tasks in real-world environments.
- Machine learning refers to the technologies and algorithms that enable systems to identify patterns, make decisions, and improve themselves through experience and data.
Tools for Creating Artificial Intelligence Systems
