Study Notes

Propositional Logic

  • Propositional variables are used to represent propositional logic, which are often represented by uppercase letters (e.g. P, Q, R).
  • A proposition is a statement that can be either true or false.
  • A tautology is a statement that is always true, while a contradiction is a statement that is always false.
  • Example of an atomic proposition: "It is raining."

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

  • AI systems can be defined in four ways: as a system that thinks like a human, as a system that acts like a human, as a system that thinks rationally, or as a system that acts rationally.
  • Tasks that require AI include natural language processing, computer vision, and expert systems.
  • The Turing Test aims to determine whether a machine is capable of exhibiting intelligent behavior equivalent to, or indistinguishable from, that of a human.
  • Examples of tasks that may not necessarily require AI include playing chess or recognizing faces.
  • The goal of AI is to create intelligent machines that can perform tasks that typically require human intelligence.

Criteria for Intelligent Systems

  • Criteria for defining intelligent systems include thinking like a human, acting like a human, thinking rationally, and acting rationally.
  • The four main capabilities a computer needs to possess to pass the Turing Test are natural language understanding, problem-solving, learning, and perception.

Turing Test Limitations

  • The 'Cognitive Revolution' brought a focus on cognitive processes and representations to the field of AI.
  • The two problems/limitations of the Turing Test are that it only tests language-based interactions and that it does not provide a clear measure of intelligence.
  • To pass the Total Turing Test, a computer would need to possess additional capabilities such as vision, hearing, and robotics.

Rational Agent

  • Aristotle attempted to codify human reasoning and argumentation.
  • The rational agent in AI aims to make the best decision given the available information and options.
  • AI research is conducted through a combination of theoretical work, experimentation, and simulation.
  • Acting rationally offers several advantages in AI, including making optimal decisions and maximizing expected utility.

Cognitive Science

  • The three approaches used to validate models in cognitive science are testing against human behavior, testing against neurological data, and testing against other cognitive models.
  • The four main capabilities included in the rational agent's view of AI are reasoning, problem-solving, learning, and decision-making.
