Class Notes: Introduction to Artificial Intelligence

Introduction to Artificial Intelligence

What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)?

Artificial Intelligence is the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think and

learn. These machines can perform tasks typically requiring human intelligence, such as visual perception,

speech recognition, decision-making, and language translation.

Goals of AI:

- To create expert systems that exhibit intelligent behavior.

- To implement human intelligence in machines.

- To understand and replicate how humans learn and reason.

Types of AI:

1. Narrow AI (Weak AI): Designed for a specific task. Example: Siri, Google Assistant.

2. General AI (Strong AI): Performs any intellectual task a human can do (still theoretical).

3. Superintelligent AI: Surpasses human intelligence (currently hypothetical).

Applications of AI:

- Healthcare: Diagnosis, drug discovery.

- Finance: Fraud detection, algorithmic trading.

- Transportation: Self-driving cars.

- Education: Personalized learning, virtual tutors.

- Robotics, Gaming, Smart Assistants, and more.

Branches of AI:

- Machine Learning: Algorithms that learn from data.

- Natural Language Processing (NLP): Understanding and generation of human language.

- Computer Vision: Enabling machines to interpret visual information.

- Expert Systems: Mimic decision-making ability of a human expert.

- Robotics: Design and use of robots to perform tasks.

History of AI:

- 1950s: Alan Turing proposed the Turing Test.

- 1956: Term "Artificial Intelligence" coined at Dartmouth Conference.

- 1980s-2000s: Development of expert systems and machine learning.

- 2010s-Present: Deep learning and AI integration into everyday life.

Conclusion:

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming every aspect of life. As it evolves, ethical concerns like bias, job

displacement, and decision transparency must be addressed to ensure responsible AI development.
