AN OVERVIEW OF AI

1. 1
Overview Of Artificial
Intelligence

2. 2
Introduction to AI
• Artificial Intelligence is composed of two words Artificial and Intelligence,
where Artificial defines "man-made," and intelligence defines "thinking
power", hence AI means "a man-made thinking power.“
• "It is a branch of computer science by which we can create intelligent
machines which can behave like a human, think like humans, and able to
make decisions."

3. 3
Introduction to AI
• Artificial intelligence, or AI is technology that enables computers and
machines to simulate human intelligence and problem-solving capabilities.
• Artificial intelligence (AI) is a set of technologies that enable computers to
perform a variety of advanced functions, including the ability to see,
understand and translate spoken and written language, analyze data, make
recommendations, and more.

4. 4
History of AI
• The modern field of AI emerged in the 1950s, when computer scientists and researchers
began exploring the possibility of creating machines that could think, learn, and solve
problems like humans.
• One of the pioneering figures in the field of AI was Alan Turing, a British mathematician
and computer scientist, who in 1950 proposed the Turing test, a method for determining
whether a machine can exhibit intelligent behavior very similar to a human.
• This sparked a wave of research and development in AI, with scientists and researchers
working to create machines that could perform tasks such as playing chess, solving
mathematical problems, and understanding natural language.

mimic human expertise in specific domains. The Dendral project, focused on chemical
analysis, and MYCIN, for medical diagnosis, were notable examples.
• 1980s: AI Winter
• Funding and interest in AI waned during the 1980s due to unmet expectations and
overpromising. This period became known as the "AI Winter.
• Over the years, funding for AI initiatives has gone through a number of active and inactive
cycles. The label winter is used to describe dormant periods when customer interest in AI
declines. Use of the season winter to describe the resulting downturn emphasizes the idea that
the quiet period will be a temporary state, followed again by growth and renewed interest.

Types of AI
2. General AI:
General AI, often referred to as Strong AI, is like the holy grail of artificial
intelligence. Picture it as a system that could do any intellectual task with the
efficiency of a human. General AI aims to create machines that think and learn like
humans, but here's the catch: there's no such system in existence yet.
Researchers worldwide are working diligently to make it a reality, but it's a complex
journey that will require significant time and effort.
