WHAT’S INVOLVED IN INTELLIGENCE?

5. “The science and engineering of
making intelligent machines,
especially intelligent computer
programs.”
- Father of Artificial Intelligence,
John McCarthy
Artificial Intelligence
The simulation of human intelligence processes like
learning, reasoning, self-correction by machines,
especially computer systems.

• Online and telephone customer service

10. Applications which integrate machine, software, and special
information to impart reasoning and advising.
Provide explanation and advice to the users.
EXPERT SYSTEMS

11. • Strategic games
Chess, Poker, tic-tac-toe
GAME PLAYING
enabling a person to discover
or learn something for themselves1997 IBM Super Computer-
Deep Blue
Gary Kasparov

12. Understands natural
language spoken by
humans.
Allow people without
specialized knowledge
to use computers easily.
Voice recognition
systems
NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING

13. Intelligent systems are capable of hearing and
comprehending the language.
PERCEPTION SYSTEMS
• Computer Vision
• Handwriting Recognition
Systems understand, interpret, and comprehend visual
input on the computer.
Software reads the text written on paper by a pen or on
screen by a stylus.
Can recognize the shapes of the letters and convert it into
editable text.
• Speech Recognition

14. • Perform tasks given by a human.
• Sensors to detect light, heat, temperature, movement,
sound, bump, and pressure.
INTELLIGENT ROBOTS
• Efficient processors,
multiple sensors and huge
memory, to exhibit
intelligence.
• Capable of learning from
their mistakes and they
can adapt to the new
environment.

15. The next stage in the development of technology:
AI Robots/ Autonomous agents
SOCIAL AND ETHICAL CONCERNS

16. FUTURE AUTONOMOUS AGENTS
Human intelligence replicated using neural
networks.
No emotional or moral components.
Different psychological models than humans.
Have free will and take responsibility for own
actions.
Capacity for intelligence and learning will be
beyond that of humans.
Compute and communicate extremely quickly.

17. POSITIVE ASPECTS
Increase in new job professions.
(The robotic Industries Association of USA which is
formed since 1974 has approximately 225 companies
around the world carried a high workforce.)
Increased accuracy.
Increased efficiency.
Less casualties in dangerous jobs.

18. SOCIAL PROBLEMS
• Security concerns as AI agents can act on their own.
• Unemployment rate will rise in the society.
• AI systems may have a possibility of getting infected
by virus or even getting hacked. Can be used as mass
destruction weapons.
• Even when programmed to achieve a positive goal,
agent might use destructive methods to reach it.
• Effect on human relationships.
Social Isolation

19. ETHICAL PROBLEMS
• Robot rights
The right to life, liberty, freedom of thought and equality before the law.
• Can be misused to spy.
• Automation of many human oriented tasks and jobs
replacing professions requiring respect and care.
(Customer service representative, therapist, nurse maid for the elderly, judge
and police officer)
• Environmental pollution.
• Lack of government laws and policies pertaining to
artificial intelligence.

20. “There is no direct evolutionary motivation for an AI to be
friendly to humans.”
( Berglas, 2008)
Undoubtedly, AI could have many benefits, such as
helping to aid the eradication of war, disease and
poverty.
Creating intelligent machines would be one of the
biggest achievements in human history, but it "might
also be the last."

21. The most important part of developing and
applying artificial intelligence in our lives is to
be careful of how dependent we become of
this technology. Artificial intelligence in
moderation and used wisely can be an
incredible tool in helping improve the way we
live.
