3. INTRODUCTION
A.I. is a branch of computer science that studies the
computational requirements for tasks such as
perception, reasoning and learning and develop systems
to perform those tasks
4. HISTORY
1943 – McCulloh and Pitts, Boolean circuit model of
brain.
1950 – Turing’s computing machine and intelligence.
1950’s – Early AI programs including Samuel’s checker
program, Newell and Simon’s logic theorist, Gelisnters
geometry engine
1956 – Dartmouth conference
5. 1952-69 – “Look, Ma, no hands!” era.
1958 – McCarthy moves to MIT, LISP was born.
1965 – Robinson’s complete algorithm for logical reasoning.
1966-74 – AI discovers computational complex.
1969-79 - Early development in knowledge based systems.
6. D E F I N I T I O N S
• Artificial intelligence (AI) is the intelligence of
machines and the branch of computer science
which aims to create it….
"the study and design of intelligent agents”
No single goal of artificial intelligence
Some say it’s putting the human mind into computers
What is intelligence?
The computational part of the ability to achieve goals in the
world
We do not yet fully understand what intelligence consists of
7. Comparisons between human and computer intelligence
Normal humans have the same intellectual mechanisms and that
differences in intelligence are related to ``quantitative biochemical
and physiological conditions' , but computer programs have plenty of
speed and memory but their abilities correspond to the intellectual
mechanisms that program designers understand well enough to put
in programs.
Whenever people do better than computers on some task or
computers use a lot of computation to do as well as people, this
demonstrates that the program designers lack understanding of the
intellectual mechanisms required to do the task efficiently.
8. Motivation
Why Artificial Intelligence?
Computers are fundamentally well suited to performing
mechanical computations, using fixed programmed rules.
Artificial machines perform simple monotonous tasks efficiently
and reliably, which humans are ill-suited to.
For more complex problems, things get more difficult... Unlike
humans, computers have trouble understanding specific situations,
and adapting to new situations.
Artificial Intelligence aims to improve machine behavior in tackling
such complex tasks.
9. Advantage
it can help improve our way of life
machines will be able to do jobs that require detailed
instructions
mental alertness and decision making capabilities
use robots for heavy construction, military benefits, or
even for personal assistance at private homes
there will be less injuries and stress to human beings
Many of our health problems now have possible
solutions with the use of Artificial Intelligence in
studies at universities
10. APPLICATIONS OF A.I.
Expert systems.
Natural Language Processing (NLP).
Speech recognition.
Computer vision.
Robotics.
Automatic Programming.
12. Future of AI
The future is really unknown
Researchers seem to disagree on a lot of
the same issues
With the rate at which technology is
improving it is logical to believe AI will
continue to get more and more
sophisticated
