Study Notes
Introduction to Artificial Intelligence (AI)
- AI involves machines performing tasks requiring intelligence, such as understanding, predicting, and manipulating the world around them. Intelligence can refer to rationality or human-like behavior.
- AI aims to create entities capable of calculating actions for problem-solving in various situations.
Approaches to AI
- Turing Test Approach: AI mimics human behavior by creating indistinguishable responses in conversation (NLP, knowledge representation, automated reasoning, machine learning, computer vision/speech recognition, robotics).
- Cognitive Modeling Approach: AI is designed to think like humans, analyzing human cognition through introspection, psychology, and brain imaging.
- Laws of Thought (Logicist Approach): AI uses formal logic (like syllogisms) for reasoning and decision-making.
- Rational Agent Approach: AI acts to achieve the best possible outcome, even with uncertainty.
Core Concepts in AI
- Machine Learning (ML): Algorithms learning from data for predictions/decisions without explicit programming.
- Neural Networks: Algorithms inspired by the human brain, recognizing patterns and solving problems.
- Deep Learning: A subset of ML using complex neural networks with multiple layers, useful for image/speech recognition.
- Natural Language Processing (NLP): Teaching computers to understand and process human language.
- Robotics: Integrating AI with physical systems for tasks like manufacturing or surgery.
- Cognitive Computing: AI mimicking human cognitive processes for complex problem-solving.
- Expert Systems: AI systems mimicking human decision-making in specific domains.
How AI Works
- AI's process involves five stages:
- Input: Data collection and categorization.
- Processing: Using learned patterns to interpret data.
- Outcomes: Predicting results based on identified patterns.
- Adjustments: Learning from errors and adapting.
- Assessments: Continuous improvement through iteration.
Types of AI
- Narrow AI (Weak AI): Designed for specific tasks (e.g., voice assistants, facial recognition). Limited generalization.
- General AI (Strong AI): AI systems with human-like intelligence, capable of learning and adapting across tasks (theoretical).
- Superintelligent AI (Super AI): AI surpassing human intelligence with self-awareness and autonomous decision-making (speculative, complex ethical issues).
Applications of AI
- AI enhances productivity, decision-making, personalization, safety, and scientific advancement. It automates tasks and improves efficiency.
Challenges in AI
- Data Quality/Availability: High-quality, vast datasets are essential.
- Bias/Fairness: AI may perpetuate biases from training data, leading to unfair outcomes.
- Interpretability: Complex AI systems may not be transparent in their decision-making.
- Safety/Robustness: AI systems can be vulnerable to attacks.
- Privacy/Security: AI raises issues about personal data usage.
- Scalability: AI models may need significant computational resources.
- Ethical Considerations: AI development faces complex dilemmas related to control and regulation.
