Module 1 - Introduction To Artificial Intelligence (AI)

This document provides an introduction to artificial intelligence (AI). It defines AI as "the science and engineering of making intelligent machines" and "the act of creating machines that perform functions that require intelligence when performed by people." The document discusses early challenges to AI research from limited computing power and mathematical understanding. It outlines different types of AI including artificial narrow intelligence, artificial general intelligence, and artificial super intelligence. It also covers major branches and applications of AI like machine learning, robotics, and natural language processing. The document discusses why AI is advancing now due to big data, increased computing power, and more applications. It outlines both advantages and disadvantages of AI as well as issues surrounding AI like deep fakes and mass surveillance.

Introduction to
Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Supported by Skymind Education Group


Week 1
What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)?
What is AI?

“The science and engineering of making


intelligent machines”

(John McCarthy, 1956)

“The act of creating machines that perform


functions that require intelligence when performed
by people.” (Kurzweil, 1990)
Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Deep
Learning
Early Days AI

In early days, AI research was slowed down by


● computer limitations
● lack of mathematical understanding
Different Types of AI
● Able to perform specific task
Artificial Narrow autonomously with human-like
Intelligence capabilities
(ANI) ● Can do nothing more than what they
are programmed to do.

● Able to learn, perceive, understand and


Artificial General function completely like a human
Intelligence being.
(AGI)

● Exceed human level intelligence with


greater memory, faster data processing
Artificial Super and analytics, and decision making
Intelligence capabilities.
(ASI)
Different Branches of AI

Machine Learning Evolutionary Computation Expert System

Fuzzy Logics Robotics Natural Language


Processing
Why now?

Big Data
The growth of the internet has generated massive amounts of data.

Moore’s Law, GPUs


The level of compute has increased to the point in which computers can now
process large datasets at reasonable speeds.

Proliferation (rapid increase) of Applications


IoT, Smartphones, Computers, Cloud Computing
Reasons industries start adopting AI

To curb pain points To provide unique offerings To retain increasing


crowd of customers
AI reach deep into organisations to affect end-to-end workflow.

Advantages
and Disadvantages of AI
Advantages and Disadvantages of AI

Advantages Disadvantages

1. Reduction in Human Error 1. High cost


2. Helps in repetitive jobs 2. Leads to unemployment
3. Can perform laborious task 3. Issue of AI-Bias
4. Can work continuously and efficient 4. Lack of human emotions
5. Can make rational and accurate decisions 5. Lack of understanding of ethics and legal
6. Helps human in risky situation
Issues and
Concerns Surrounding AI
Deep Fakes

● Put thousands of hours of


video or photos into an AI
system
● AI starts to recognise
facial features and
characteristics from the
footage
● Overwrite clips with new
video or audio
Deep Fakes
Mass Surveillance
