WHAT IS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE?
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a broad branch of computer science concerned with building intelligent machines capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence.
WHAT ARE THE FOUR TYPES OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE?
- ♦ Reactive machines
- ♦ Limited memory
- ♦ Theory of mind
- ♦ Self-awareness
- ♦ Siri, Alexa, and other intelligent assistants
- ♦ Autonomous cars
- ♦ Robo-advisors
- ♦ Chatbots
- ♦ Email spam filters
- ♦ Netflix recommendations
CONCEPTS
How does artificial intelligence work?- ♦ AI approaches and concepts Less than a decade after breaking the Nazi Enigma encryption machine and helping Allied forces win World War II, mathematician Alan Turing changed history a second time with a simple question: "Can machines think??
- ♦ Turing's paper "Computing Machinery and Intelligence" (1950), and his subsequent Turing Test, established the fundamental purpose and vision of artificial intelligence.
- ♦ At its core, AI is the branch of computer science that aims to answer Turing's question in the affirmative. It is the effort to reproduce or simulate human intelligence in machines.
- ♦ The expansive goal of artificial intelligence has generated many questions and debates. So much so that no single definition of the field is universally accepted.
