Emerging technology

• Emerging technology is a term generally used to


describe a new technology, but it may also refer to the
continuing development of existing technology;
• it can have slightly different meanings when used in
different areas, such as media, business, science, or
education.
• The term commonly refers to technologies that are
currently developing, or that are expected to be
available within the next five to ten years, and is usually
reserved for technologies that are creating or are
expected to create
cont
• significant social or economic effects.
Technological evolution is a theory of radical

What is the root word of technology and
evolution?
• Technology: 1610s, "discourse or treatise on an art

treatment of an art, craft, or technique," originally
referring to grammar, from tekhno- (see techno-) + -

2.1. Artificial Intelligence
AI
• Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a branch of
computer science that focuses on creating
intelligent machines that can perform tasks
that would typically require human
intelligence. AI aims to develop systems that
can perceive their environment, reason about
it, learn from it, and make decisions or take
actions to achieve specific goals.
Branches of A
• Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a broad and
interdisciplinary field that encompasses
various branches and subfields.
• Here are some key branches of AI:
a. Machine Learning
• Machine Learning is the study of computer
algorithms that enable the computer to learn
from data and improve itself without being
explicitly programmed.
• Machine learning algorithms learn from
experience.
• The primary goal of machine learning is to
allow computers to learn and improve from
experience, enabling them to make
predictions or decisions based on data
b. Robotics
c. Natural Language Processing
d. Expert Systems
