What is AI?
• Artificial intelligence (AI) is a collection of technologies that allow
computers to perform complex tasks, such as understanding
language, analyzing data, and making decisions.
• AI uses machine learning to teach computers how to learn from
data and perform human-like tasks.
How does AI work?
● Natural language processing (NLP)
Uses machine learning to allow computers to understand and communicate
with human language
● Computer vision
Uses machine learning to allow computers to interpret visual information,
such as images and videos
● Deep learning
A subset of machine learning that uses neural networks to teach computers
to process data in a way that mimics the human brain
Research Scope in AI and Machine Learning
•Revenue generated by AI hardware, software and
services is expected to reach $156.5 billion worldwide
this year, according to market researcher.

Machine Learning
• Machine learning allows computers to find hidden insights through
iteratively learning from data, without being explicitly programmed.
• It has revolutionized the world of computer science by allowing learning
with large datasets, which enables machines to change, re-structure and
optimize algorithms by themselves.
• Machine learning (ML) is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that allows
software applications to become more accurate at predicting outcomes
without being explicitly programmed to do so.
• Machine learning algorithms use historical data as input to predict new
output values.

What are the benefits of AI?
• AI can perform tasks faster than humans
• AI can perform complex tasks without significant cost
• AI can operate 24/7 without interruption
• AI can augment the capabilities of people with disabilities
What are some examples of AI?
• Signature identification
• Medical image analysis
• Autonomous vehicles
• Recognizing images
• Understanding human speech
• Translating words between languages
Who is the father of AI?
John McCarthy (1927–2011), an American computer scientist and
cognitive scientist, often hailed as the "father of artificial intelligence"
(AI), made significant contributions to both AI and computer science.
Intelligent agent
An intelligent agent is a software program that can make decisions and
perform tasks based on its environment, user input, and experiences.
Intelligent agents can be used to accomplish specific goals, such as
gathering information, performing a service, or interacting with a user.
Intelligent agents use sensors to perceive their environment, and
actuators to take action. For example, a camera or rain sensor could be
used as a sensor, and a speaker or screen could be used as an actuator.
Intelligent agent
Intelligent agents can be used in a variety of
applications, including:
• Call centers
Intelligent agents can use prior interactions to anticipate user needs and make dynamic
decisions.
• Personal assistants
Intelligent personal assistants, such as Siri, Alexa, and Google Assistant, can help users
with tasks like scheduling appointments and sending messages.
• Autonomous robots
Autonomous robots, such as the Roomba vacuum cleaner and the Amazon delivery
robot, can perform tasks like cleaning, sorting, and delivering goods.
Intelligent agents can learn from their experiences and improve their behavior over time.
They can use strategies like trial and error, experience replay, and policy optimization to
learn and improve.
