INTRODUCTION

 Artificial Intelligence is the ability for a computer to think, learn and

simulate human mental processes, such as perceiving, reasoning, and
learning.
 It can also independently perform complex tasks that once required
human input.
2. HISTORY OF AI

 In 1950 English mathematician Alan Turing wrote a

landmark paper titled "Computing Machinery and
Intelligence" that asked the question: "Can
machines think ?”

 Further work came out of a 1956 workshop

at Dartmouth sponsored by John McCarthy.
In the proposal for that workshop, he coined
the phrase a "study of
Artificial Intelligence"
3. WHY AI ?

 Artificial Intelligence enhances the speed, precision and

effectiveness of human efforts.
 Artificial intelligence makes it possible for machines to learn
from experience, adjust to new inputs and perform human-
like tasks.
 TYPES OF AI

 ANI - Artificial narrow intelligence/Weak AI.

Examples: Apple’s - Siri, Microsoft’s - Cortana,
Amazons - Alexa.
It will answer to the questions it

understand.
 AGI - Artificial General intelligence (or)
Strong AI (or) Human-Level AI.
 ASI - Artificial Superintelligence.
APPLICATIONS OF
AI
 Expert System.
 Natural Language Processing.
 Speech Recognition.
 Computer Vision.
 Robotics.
 Machine Learning.
 EXPERT SYSTEM
 An Expert System is a computer program designed to
act as an expert in a particular domain (area of
expertise).

Phases in Expert System

 Expert systems currently are designed to assist experts,

not to replace them, They have been used in medical
diagnosis, chemical analysis, geological
explorations etc.
 NATURAL LANGUAGE
PROCESSING

 The goal of NLP is to enable people and computers to communicate in a

natural (humanly) language(such as, English) rather than in a computer
language.
 The field of NLP is divided in 2 categories-
→ Natural Language understanding.
→ Natural Language generation.
 SPEECH RECOGNITION

 The primary interactive method of communication

used by humans is not reading and writing, it is
speech.
 The goal of speech recognition research is to allow
computers to understand human speech. So that they

can hear our voices and recognize the words we are recognition.
speaking.
 It simplifies the process of interactive communication
between people and computers, thus it advances
the goal of NLP.

 COMPUTER
VISION
 People generally use vision as their primary means of sensing
their environment, we generally see more than we hear, feelor smell or taste.
 Here A.I helps computer to understand what they see through attached cameras
and extract information from the image that is necessary to solve a task.

 ROBOTIC
S

 A ROBOT is a mechanical or virtual

artificial agent, usually an electro
mechanical machine that is guided
by a computer program or electronic
circuitry.
 Robots can be autonomous or semi-autonomous.
 A robot may convey a sense of intelligence or thoughts
of its own. Honda Asimo humanoid robot
 Machine learning

 Machine Learning is the field of study that gives computers the capability to
learn without being explicitly programmed. ML is one of the most exciting
technologies that one would have ever come across. As it is evident from the
name, it gives the computer that which makes it more similar to humans: The
ability to learn.
 6. PROS & CONS
 Precision and Accuracy.  Cost incurred in the maintenance and repair.

 Space exploration.  Not able to act any different.

 Used for mining process.  Lack the human touch.

 Can do laborious tasks.  Lack a creative mind.

 Fraud detectioh, manage records.  Lack common sense.

 Lacking the emotional side.  Unemployment.

 Can do repetitive and time-consuming tasks.  Abilities of humans may diminish.

 Robotic pets, Robotic radiosurgery.  Robots superseding humans.

 Function without stopping, Risk Reducing.  Humans may became dependent on

machines.
 Diagnosis and Treatment.  Wrong an s causes estructlon.

CONCLUSION

 Till now we have discussed in brief about Artificial Intelligence.

 We have discussed some of its principles, its applications, its
achievements etc.
 The ultimate goal of institutions and scientists working on Al is to
solve majority of the problems or to achieve the tasks which we
humans directly can't accomplish.
