INTRODUC
TION
Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to
the simulation of human
intelligence in machines that are
programmed to think, learn, and
make decisions.

These systems are designed to

perform tasks that typically require
human intelligence, such as
understanding natural language,
recognizing patterns, solving
problems, and making predictions.

INTELLIGENCE &
ITS EVOLUTION
The evolution of machine intelligence is a
fascinating journey that spans decades of
innovation and progress.

It refers to the development of systems and

algorithms that mimic human-like
intelligence, enabling machines to perform
tasks such as learning, reasoning, problem-
solving, and decision-making.

In the upcoming slides, we will see some

outline of its key stages and milestones:
