What is Artificial Intelligence

• A branch of computer science that studies how to
  endow computers with capabilities of human
  intelligence.
• We describe an artificial brain, a robot brain
  that learns (Also called a Cognitive Architecture
  or an Intelligent System or an Adaptive
  Autonomous Agent).

AI is the branch of computer science concerned
with making computers behave like humans. AI
includes

• game playing programming computers to play games
  such as chess and checkers

• natural language programming computers to
  understand natural human languages

4

• expert systems programming computers to make
  decisions in real-life situations (for example,
  some expert systems help doctors diagnose
  diseases based on symptoms)

• neural networks Systems that simulate
  intelligence by attempting to reproduce the types
  of physical connections that occur in animal
  brains
• robotics programming computers to see and hear
  and react to other sensory stimuli

5
So AI Is Basically

• a digital computer or computer-controlled robot
  device to perform tasks commonly associated with
  the higher intellectual processes characteristic
  of humans

• The ability to reason, discover meaning,
  generalize, or learn from past experience in a
  machine.
