Since the invention of computers or machines, their capability to perform
various tasks went on growing exponentially. Humans have developed the

power of computer systems in terms of their diverse working domains, their
increasing speed, and reducing size with respect to time.
A branch of Computer Science named Artificial Intelligence pursues creating

the computers or machines as intelligent as human beings.
What is Artificial Intelligence?

According to the father of Artificial Intelligence, John McCarthy, it is “The
science and engineering of making intelligent machines, especially
intelligent computer programs”.
Artificial Intelligence is a way of making a computer, a computer-

controlled robot, or a software think intelligently, in the similar
manner the intelligent humans think.
AI is accomplished by studying how human brain thinks, and how humans

learn, decide, and work while trying to solve a problem, and then using the
outcomes of this study as a basis of developing intelligent software and
systems.
Philosophy of AI
While exploiting the power of the computer systems, the curiosity of
human, lead him to wonder, “Can a machine think and behave like humans
do?”
Thus, the development of AI started with the intention of creating similar

intelligence in machines that we find and regard high in humans.
Goals of AI
 To Create Expert Systems − The systems which exhibit intelligent behavior,
learn, demonstrate, explain, and advice its users.
 To Implement Human Intelligence in Machines − Creating systems that

understand, think, learn, and behave like humans.
What Contributes to AI?

Artificial intelligence is a science and technology based on disciplines such
as Computer Science, Biology, Psychology, Linguistics, Mathematics, and
Engineering. A major thrust of AI is in the development of computer
functions associated with human intelligence, such as reasoning, learning,
and problem solving.
Out of the following areas, one or multiple areas can contribute to build an
intelligent system.
Programming Without and With AI

The programming without and with AI is different in following ways −

What is AI Technique?
In the real world, the knowledge has some unwelcomed properties −
 Its volume is huge, next to unimaginable.

 It is not well-organized or well-formatted.
 It keeps changing constantly.
AI Technique is a manner to organize and use the knowledge efficiently in

such a way that −
 It should be perceivable by the people who provide it.
 It should be easily modifiable to correct errors.
 It should be useful in many situations though it is incomplete or inaccurate.
AI techniques elevate the speed of execution of the complex program it is

equipped with.
Applications of AI
AI has been dominant in various fields such as −
 Gaming − AI plays crucial role in strategic games such as chess, poker, tic-tac-
toe, etc., where machine can think of large number of possible positions based
on heuristic knowledge.
 Natural Language Processing − It is possible to interact with the computer

that understands natural language spoken by humans.
 Expert Systems − There are some applications which integrate machine,

software, and special information to impart reasoning and advising. They
provide explanation and advice to the users.
 Vision Systems − These systems understand, interpret, and comprehend

visual input on the computer. For example,
o A spying aeroplane takes photographs, which are used to figure out

spatial information or map of the areas.
o Doctors use clinical expert system to diagnose the patient.
o Police use computer software that can recognize the face of criminal with
the stored portrait made by forensic artist.
 Speech Recognition − Some intelligent systems are capable of hearing and

comprehending the language in terms of sentences and their meanings while a
human talks to it. It can handle different accents, slang words, noise in the
background, change in human’s noise due to cold, etc.
 Handwriting Recognition − The handwriting recognition software reads the
text written on paper by a pen or on screen by a stylus. It can recognize the
shapes of the letters and convert it into editable text.
 Intelligent Robots − Robots are able to perform the tasks given by a human.
They have sensors to detect physical data from the real world such as light,
heat, temperature, movement, sound, bump, and pressure. They have efficient
processors, multiple sensors and huge memory, to exhibit intelligence. In
addition, they are capable of learning from their mistakes and they can adapt to
the new environment.
