What is Artificial Intelligence? How we can use it



what is artificial intelligence zoom in

so you ever heard of Alexa or Siri or seen a self-driving car or have you ever wondered how your phone’s face recognition works well believe it or not all of these technologies have something in common and that is they use artificial intelligence or AI to perform a task and what is that well before I answer that let’s see what the word intelligence stands for intelligence is the ability to gain and apply Knowledge and Skills for example when we learn the alphabet A to Z in kindergarten we acquired this information and can use it to create words sentences or even solve many problems similarly when a robot or computer uses the information programmed into it to solve problems it is also using a form of intelligence however this type of intelligence is different from Human intelligence it is called artificial intelligence or ai ai systems are designed to be able to learn from their experiences adapt to new situations and make decisions based on the available information but the crucial question is is it really helpful to us AI can be used in many ways from helping humans perform tasks more efficiently to allowing machines to perform tasks that would be difficult or impossible for humans to do for example AI can be used in robots to help them do tasks in factories or hospitals or in self-driving cars to help them navigate roads and avoid accidents one of the best things about AI is that it can process and analyze lots of data very quickly and accurately this makes it a useful tool for many different Industries like healthcare finance and Retail where lots of data needs to be analyzed to make good and quick decisions so in a way it is a very powerful tool that is Transforming Our Lives but as they say with great power comes great responsibility so it’s vital to use AI systems responsibly and not become too dependent on them as it can make us more reliant on technology and less self-sufficient this could potentially lead to a decrease in motivation and a decrease in physical and mental activity which would directly affect our health on top of that the biggest concern with the AI system is that it has the potential to disrupt existing Industries and potentially replace human workers leading to mass unemployment therefore it is vital to ensure that its development and uses are Guided by ethical principles to maximize its benefits and minimize its potential negative impacts crave your time did you know one of the earliest milestones in the development of AI was the creation of the first computer program designed to play chess which was developed in the 1950s yes and in 1997 a computer program called Deep Blue made headlines when it defeated the world champion chess player Gary Kasparov in a six-game match hope you acquired new information today





Main Features of Artificial intellegence


picture this a machine that could organize your cupboard just as you like it or serve every member of the house a customized cup of coffee makes your day easier doesn’t it these are the products of artificial intelligence but why use the term artificial intelligence well these machines are artificially incorporated with human-like intelligence to perform tasks as we do this intelligence is built using complex algorithms and mathematical functions but ai may not be as obvious as in the previous examples in fact ai is used in smartphones cars social media feeds Uses of AI video games banking surveillance and many other aspects of our daily life the real question is what does an ai do at its core here is a robot we built in our lab which is now dropped onto a field in spite of a variation in lighting landscape and dimensions of the field the ai robot must perform as expected this ability to react appropriately to a new situation is called generalized learning the robot is now at a crossroad one that is paved and the other rocky the robot must determine which path to take based on the circumstances this portrays the robot’s reasoning ability after a short stroll the robot now encounters a stream that it cannot swim across using the plank provided as an input the robot is able to cross this stream so our robot uses the given input and finds the solution for a problem this is problem solving these three capabilities make the robot artificially intelligent in short ai provides machines with the capability to adapt What is AI reason and provide solutions well now that we know what ai is let’s have a look at the two broad categories an ais classified into weak ai also called narrow ai focuses Weak AI solely on one task for example alphago is a maestro of the game go but you can’t expect it to be even remotely good at chess this makes alphago a weak ai you might ay alexa is definitely not a Strong AI weak ai since it can perform multiple tasks well that’s not really true when you ask alexa to play despacito it picks up the keywords play and despacito and runs a program and is trained to alexa cannot respond to a question it isn’t trained to answer for instance try asking alexa the status of traffic from work to home alexa cannot provide you this information as she is not trained to and that brings us to our second category of ai strong ai now this is much like the robots that only exist in fiction as of now ultron from avengers is an ideal example of a strong ai that’s because it’s self-aware and eventually even develops emotions this makes the ai’s response unpredictable Difference between AI ML and Deep learning you must be wondering well how is artificial intelligence different from machine learning and deep learning we saw what ai is machine learning is a technique to achieve ai and deep learning in turn is a subset of machine learning machine learning provides a machine with the capability to learn from data and experience through algorithms deep learning does this learning through ways inspired by the human brain this means through deep learning data and patterns can be better perceivedray kurzweil a well-known futurist  predicts that by the year 2045 we would have robots as smart as humans this is called the point of singularity



well that’s not all in fact elon musk predicts that the human mind and body will be enhanced by ai implants which would make us partly cyborgs so here’s a question for you which of the below ai projects don’t exist yet a an ai robot with citizenship b a robot with a muscular skeletal system c ai that can read its owner’s emotions d ain’t that develops emotions over time give it a thought and leave your answers in the comment section below three lucky winners will receive amazon gift vouchers since the human brain is still a mystery it’s no surprise that ai2 has a lot of unventured domains for now ai is built to work with humans and make our tasks easier however with the maturation of technology we can only wait and watch what the future of ai holds for us well that is artificial intelligence for Future of Artificial Intelligence you in short do not forget to leave your answer to the quiz in the comment section below also like share and subscribe to our channel if you enjoyed this video stay tuned and keep learning
