Artificial Intelligence
From FUKTwiki
Artificial Intelligence is a technique we use to mimic the human brain and thinking in a machine.
Here are the answers to some basic questions about the Artificial intelligence taken from site http://www-formal.stanford.edu/jmc/whatisai
- Q. What is artificial intelligence?
- A. It is the science and engineering of making intelligent machines, especially intelligent computer programs. It is related to the similar task of using computers to understand human intelligence, but AI does not have to confine itself to methods that are biologically observable.
- Q. Yes, but what is intelligence?
- A. Intelligence is the computational part of the ability to achieve goals in the world. Varying kinds and degrees of intelligence occur in people, many animals and some machines.
- Q. Isn't there a solid definition of intelligence that doesn't depend on relating it to human intelligence?
- A. Not yet. The problem is that we cannot yet characterize in general what kinds of computational procedures we want to call intelligent. We understand some of the mechanisms of intelligence and not others.
The above referenced site can be used by the beginners in the field of Artificial Intelligence or someone interested to learn what the father of AI has said about it.
