Artificial Intelligence

Defn: Artificial Intelligence is composed of two words Artificial and Intelligence, where Artificial
defines "man-made," and intelligence defines "thinking power", hence AI means "a man-made
thinking power." So, we can define AI as: "It is a branch of computer science by which we can create
intelligent machines which can behave like a human, think like humans, and able to make
decisions." Artificial Intelligence exists when a machine can have human based skills such as
learning, reasoning, and solving problems
Goals of Artificial Intelligence: Following are the main goals of Artificial Intelligence:

1. Replicate human intelligence

2. Solve Knowledge-intensive tasks

3. An intelligent connection of perception and action

4. Building a machine which can perform tasks that requires human intelligence

such as: o Proving a theorem

o Playing chess

o Plan some surgical operation

o Driving a car in traffic

5. Creating some system which can exhibit intelligent behavior, learn new things by itself,
demonstrate, explain, and can advise to its user.

Advantages of Artificial Intelligence: Following are some main advantages of Artificial Intelligence:
o High Accuracy with less errors: AI machines or systems are prone to less errors and high accuracy
as it takes decisions as per pre-experience or information.

o High-Speed: AI systems can be of very high-speed and fast-decision making, because of that AI
systems can beat a chess champion in the Chess game.

o High reliability: AI machines are highly reliable and can perform the same action multiple times
with high accuracy. o Useful for risky areas: AI machines can be helpful in situations such as defusing a bomb,
exploring the ocean floor, where to employ a humancan be risky.

o Digital Assistant: AI can be very useful to provide digital assistant to the users such as AI
technology is currently used by various Ecommerce websites to show the products as per customer
requirement.

o Useful as a public utility: AI can be very useful for public utilities such as a self-driving car which
can make our journey safer and hassle-free, facial recognition for security purpose, Natural language
processing to communicate with the human in human-language, etc.

Disadvantages:
o High Cost: The hardware and software requirement of AI is very costly as it requires lots of
maintenance to meet current world requirements.
o Can't think out of the box: Even we are making smarter machines with AI, but still they cannot
work out of the box, as the robot will only do that work for which they are trained, or programmed.

o No feelings and emotions: AI machines can be an outstanding performer, but still it does not have
the feeling so it cannot make any kind of emotional attachment with human, and may sometime be
harmful for users if the proper care is not taken.

o Increase dependency on machines: With the increment of technology, people are getting more
dependent on devices and hence they are losing their mental capabilities.

No Original Creativity: As humans are so creative and can imagine some new ideas but still AI
machines cannot beat this power of human intelligence and cannot be creative and imaginative
