Introduction to Artificial
Intelligence
Subjects AI and machine learning
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a field of computer science focused on
creating machines that can perform tasks requiring human-like
intelligence, such as reasoning and learning. Key goals include
automating repetitive tasks, improving efficiency, enhancing
decision-making, and solving complex challenges. AI is categorized
into Narrow AI, which performs specific tasks, and General AI,
which is still theoretical. Key concepts include Machine Learning,
AI
Deep Learning, Natural Language Processing, and Computer Vision.
summary
AI has real-world applications in virtual assistants, recommendation
systems, healthcare, finance, and transportation, offering benefits
like efficiency and personalization, while also facing challenges
such as ethics, privacy, and job displacement. The future of AI
promises advancements in healthcare, environment, education, and
robotics, highlighting its transformative potential and the need for
ethical considerations.

What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)?
Artificial Intelligence, or AI, is a field of computer science that aims to create
machines that can perform tasks that typically require human intelligence. These
tasks include reasoning, learning, problem-solving, perception, and language
understanding. Essentially, AI allows machines to "think" and "learn" in a way that
resembles human cognition.
Key Goals of AI
1. Automate repetitive tasks - Making machines handle tasks that humans do
regularly but don’t want to repeat.
2. Improve efficiency - Helping industries like healthcare, finance, and retail
operate faster and smarter.
3. Enhance decision-making - Supporting humans in making complex decisions
based on data analysis and predictions.
4. Create new possibilities - Solving challenges previously thought impossible,
like predicting rare diseases or climate impacts.
Types of AI
AI is generally divided into two main types:
1. Narrow AI (Weak AI)
Designed to perform a specific task, such as facial recognition or voice
assistants.
It does not possess general intelligence but excels in its specialized
function.
Examples: Siri, Alexa, self-driving cars, and spam filters.
2. General AI (Strong AI)
Hypothetical AI that possesses the ability to understand, learn, and apply
intelligence across a wide range of tasks.
This type of AI would function similarly to human intelligence but is still
under research and development.
