Study Notes
What is Artificial Intelligence?
- Artificial intelligence (AI) is a field focused on creating programmed systems that can mimic human activities, such as perceiving, thinking, learning, and acting.
Intelligent Agent
- A software agent is a set of programs designed to complete specific tasks.
- Examples include email sorting agents and search engines.
- A physical agent (robot) is a programmable system capable of performing various tasks.
- Simple robots can be used in manufacturing for routine jobs like assembling, welding, or painting.
- Mobile robots can perform delivery tasks, like distributing mail or underwater oil prospecting.
- A humanoid robot is an autonomous mobile robot designed to mimic human behavior.
- Fundamental faculties of intelligence include:
- Acting
- Sensing
- Reasoning (understanding)
- Learning
- An Intelligent Agent must:
- Sense
- Act
- Be autonomous (to some extent)
- Be rational
AI in Robotics
- The agent is called a robot agent.
- The environment is the surrounding area.
- Robots use sensors like cameras and microphones to perceive the environment.
- They utilize motors and actuators to interact with the environment.
AI in Medicine
- The agent is called a diagnostic agent.
