AI Definition :
• Artificial Intelligence is the simulation of human intelligence
processes by machines, that include learning, reasoning,
self-correction and solving problems.
It is an important part in technology industries, and this field is
improving more and more over the years.
• Machines that simulate intelligent behavior.
• Collection of technologies that allow the computers to think like
humans
• Science of making intelligent machines.

CIT Instructor: Basheir Al-Rei

Motivation
• Artificial intelligent machines help us to deal with complex tasks
that the human couldn’t do. That’s why we need artificial
intelligent in our life.
• Tasks that can the intelligent machines do:
• Reasoning and solving problems:
• Planning
• Learning
• Social intelligent

How Does AI work?


• In order for the machines to simulate intelligent behavior, they have to
achieve human-level performance in all cognitive tasks
• These cognitive tasks include:
• Natural language processing: For communication with humans.
• Knowledge representation: To store information effectively & efficiently.
• Automated reasoning: To retrieve & answer questions using the stored information.
• Machine learning: To adapt to new circumstances.
• Computer vision: To perceive objects (seeing).
• Robotics: To move objects (acting).
