ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

What is Artificial Intelligence? How do we actually come to know about Artificial Intelligence? So many questions arise in one’s mind whenever he or she hears or learn about Artificial Intelligence.

What is Artificial Intelligence?

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is something that is performed by Machines. According to Computer Scientists, an ideal machine is a flexible deliberate representative that recognises its environment and performs actions that increases its chance of success to some goal. Artificial Intelligence commonly known as AI, is taking root in our daily lives. We are not far away from having robots and working machines at our homes, offices, restaurants, labs and other working places. Artificial Intelligence is not only the name of Robots; it involves every kind of intellectual machine that can perform its tasks efficiently and intelligently.

History of Artificial Intelligence

   The birth of Artificial Intelligence started from 1952-1956. The classical philosophers planted modern AI seeds to describe the working of human’s thinking as the mechanical handling of symbols. Philosophers and Computer Scientists helped people to express Artificial Intelligence in the form of Humanity’s Myths, legends, stories, speculations, and clockwork automatons. Computer Scientists predicted that AI has continued to be an important and efficient principle of Science Fiction into the present. First AI programs that work were Samuel’s checker Program, Ne-well and Simon’s Logic theorists, Robinson’s complete algorithm for logical reasoning.

Living Examples of Artificial Intelligence

   There are number of applications that are efficiently working with the help of Artificial Intelligence. By Applications it means, Weather Forecasts, Email-Spam Filtering, Google’s Search Predictions, voice recognition such as Apple’s Siri, and Window’s Cortana, are all the examples related to AI. Excluding these examples we are having involvement of AI in the field of Computer Science, Finance, Hospitals and Medicines, Heavy Industry, Online and Telephonic Customer Services, Transportation, Toys and games, Aviation, and a bunch of other examples.

Applications where AI Methods are applied

There are some typical problems where AI method needs to be applied:

·         Optical Character Recognition

·         Handwriting Recognition

·         Speech Recognition

·         Face Detection

·         Virtual Reality

·         Computer Visions

·         Game Theory

·         Strategic Planning

·         Robotics and Non Linear Controls

·         Computer Game Bot

·         Cybernetics

·         Developmental Robotics

·         Data Mining

·         Concept Mining

These are not enough applications where AI has been applied; but there are hundreds and thousands of applications where AI performed its duty.

Pros and Cons of Artificial Intelligence

Everything in this world has its pros and cons, some good qualities, some bad qualities, some works efficiently and some works inefficiently; so to Artificial Intelligence also has some pros and cons. There are following points that will shortly explain the concept of AI.

Pros of AI:

•    Relentless operations of machines without demanding and failing the memory.
•   Capacity to enhance communications.
•   Ability to share information within and across the societies.
•  Chances of errors become zero and ability to achieve exactness and sureness of machines.

Cons of AI:

•             Failure of discerning components
•            Comprehensive use of AI will give birth to cyber safety across the world.

Technologies related to Artificial Intelligence are using common scenario named as “Machine-Learning Algorithm” that enable them to react and performs specific actions. As the technology evolves, there will be surely growing pains of AI but the positive effect over society in terms of efficiency is unbounded.
