Artificial intelligence (AI) involves using algorithms and computer systems to perform tasks normally requiring human intelligence, such as problem-solving and decision-making. The document discusses AI's goals of understanding human intelligence and creating useful programs to perform expert tasks. It also provides examples of AI applications in robotics, transportation, surgery, manufacturing, traffic control, healthcare, research, and the military. While AI shows promise, challenges remain in fully understanding and recreating human-level intelligence using technology.

1. ARTIFICIAL
INTELLIGENCE

2. WHAT IS AI?
It is the ability of a digital computer or computer
controlled robot to perform tasks commonly
associated with intelligent beings.
It is a branch of Science which deals with helping
machines finds solutions to complex problems in a
more human-like fashion.
It is generally involves borrowing characteristics
from human intelligence, and applying them as
algorithms in a computer friendly way.

3. WHO DOES AI?
Many disciplines contribute to goal of
creating/modelling intelligent entities:
 Computer Science
 Psychology (human reasoning)
 Philosophy (nature of belief, rationality, etc)
 Linguistics (structure and meaning of
language)
 Human Biology (how brain works)

4. TWO MAIN GOAL OF AI
 To understand human intelligence
better. We test theories of human
intelligence by writing programs which
emulate it.
 To create useful “smart” programs able
to do tasks that would normally require
a human expert.

5. APPLICATION OF
ARTIFICIAL
INTELLIGENCE

6. ROBOTS
 A Robot is a electro-mechanical device that can by
programmed to perform manual tasks or a
reprogrammable multi functional manipulator designed
to move materials, parts, tools, or specialized devices
through variable programmed motions for performance
of variety of tasks.
 An ‘intelligent’ robot includes some kind of
sensory apparatus that allows it to respond to change in
it’s environment

7. DRIVERLESS TRANSPORT
• Google has been investing in a driverless car, and has completed over
480,000 autonomous-driving miles accident-free.
• Through the use of cameras, sensors and special software built into
vehicles manufacturers have been able to build cars that park
themselves at the touch of a button.
• Driverless trains carry passengers from city to city in Japan without
the need for human help.
• Google’s driverless car relies on lasers and sensors to spot obstacles,
interpret signs and interact with traffic and pedestrians.
• Artificial intelligence takes away the responsibility from the drivers,
and also eliminates the danger of distracted driving and boasts a
reaction time much faster than that of any human.

9. SURGICAL AID ROBOTS
• Cedars-Sinai Medical Center relies on special software to examine the
heart and stop heart attacks before they occur
• Artificial muscles feature smart technology that allows them to
function more like real muscles.
• Penelope, a Robotic Surgery Assistant developed at Columbia
University can not only pass the correct tools to doctors, but also keep
track of these tools and learn about a doctor's preferences through
artificial intelligence.
• The most advanced surgical robots are programmed to perform the
entire surgery on their own, except for the suturing or the cutting. In
these operations, a surgeon stands by just in case something goes
wrong.
• Miniature intelligent robots are being developed for eye surgeries.

11. AUTOMATED ASSEMBLY LINES AND
DANGEROUS JOBS
• Some countries have put smart robots to work disabling land
mines and handling radioactive materials in order to limit
the risk to human workers.
• Ford is using an Artificial Intelligence based approach for
vehicle assembly process planning, ergonomics analysis, and
a system that uses machine translation to translate assembly-build
instructions for assembly plants that don't use English.
• Other Companies such as GM have developed robots with
Artificial Intelligence techniques to inspect cars made by
humans

13. NEXT GENERATION TRAFFIC
CONTROL
• Artificial Intelligence in traffic lights seeks to improve the
efficiency of traffic flow, hence improving road space
utilization, reducing journey times and potentially,
improving fuel efficiency, as well as reducing the impact of
cars on the road.
• In the future, they want to create a traffic control system that
thinks like a human in directing traffic.
• “We can consider a future where all vehicles are equipped
with WiFi and GPS and can transmit their positions to
signalized junctions. This opens the way to the use of
artificial intelligence approaches to traffic control such as
machine learning."

15. FACTORY ROBOTS

16. HEALTHCARE ROBOTS

17. RESEARCH ROBOTS

18. MILITARY ROBOTS

20. PROBLEMS WITH A.I.
One basic problem lies in the question
of what intelligence is exactly.
How can we recreate a learning,
thinking mind with technology? Is it
even possible? Some do not think so.
