How Artificial Intelligence Works

AI works by combining large amounts of data with fast, iterative processing and intelligent
algorithms, allowing the software to learn automatically from patterns or features in the data.
AI is a broad field of study that includes many theories, methods and technologies, as well as
the following major subfields:

 Machine learning automates analytical model building. It uses methods from neural networks,
statistics, operations research and physics to find hidden insights in data without explicitly being
programmed for where to look or what to conclude.

 A neural network is a type of machine learning that is made up of interconnected units (like neurons)
that processes information by responding to external inputs, relaying information between each unit.
The process requires multiple passes at the data to find connections and derive meaning from
undefined data.

 Deep learning uses huge neural networks with many layers of processing units, taking advantage of
advances in computing power and improved training techniques to learn complex patterns in large
amounts of data. Common applications include image and speech recognition.

 Cognitive computing is a subfield of AI that strives for a natural, human-like interaction with
machines. Using AI and cognitive computing, the ultimate goal is for a machine to simulate human
processes through the ability to interpret images and speech – and then speak coherently in
response.

 Computer vision relies on pattern recognition and deep learning to recognize what’s in a picture or
video. When machines can process, analyze and understand images, they can capture images or
videos in real time and interpret their surroundings.

 Natural language processing (NLP) is the ability of computers to analyze, understand and generate
human language, including speech. The next stage of NLP is natural language interaction, which
allows humans to communicate with computers using normal, everyday language to perform tasks.

Additionally, several technologies enable and support AI:

 Graphical processing units are key to AI because they provide the heavy compute power that’s
required for iterative processing. Training neural networks requires big data plus compute power.

 The Internet of Things generates massive amounts of data from connected devices, most of it
unanalyzed. Automating models with AI will allow us to use more of it.

 Advanced algorithms are being developed and combined in new ways to analyze more data faster
and at multiple levels. This intelligent processing is key to identifying and predicting rare events,
understanding complex systems and optimizing unique scenarios.

 APIs, or application processing interfaces, are portable packages of code that make it possible to
add AI functionality to existing products and software packages. They can add image recognition
capabilities to home security systems and Q&A capabilities that describe data, create captions and
headlines, or call out interesting patterns and insights in data.
