TG4 Flashcards
goal of AI
build machines that mimic human intelligence.
THE TURIG TEST
proposes a scenario in which a man and a computer both pretend to be women or men, and a human interviewer has to identify which is the real human
Strong AI
hypothetical artificial intelligence that matches or exceeds human intelligence—the intelligence of a machine that could successfully perform any intellectual task that a human being can. Strong AI, therefore, could be considered to have consciousness or sentience.
Weak AI
(also called narrow AI) performs a useful and specific function that once required human intelligence to perform, and does so at human levels or better
CENTAURS IN CHESS
HUMANS AND AI
WHAT ARE THE FOUR STAGES OF AI
1st stage: recommendation systems
2nd stage: analyzing the data
3rd stage: analyze additional data from smart devices and sensors
fourth stage: integrate the 3 stages and enable machines to sense and response to the world around them
WHAT IS AI
AS Tasks that humans perform, NOT how humans think
- A subfield of computer science that studies the thought process of humans, recreating effects of those processes through information systems
advancements in chip technology
AI systems employ graphics processing units (called GPU chips).
These chips were developed to meet the visual and parallel processing demands of video games. In
fact, GPU chips facilitate parallel processing in neural networks, which are the primary information
architecture of AI software
Big Data- advancement in AI
Big Data consists of diverse, high-volume, high-velocity information assets that require new
types of processing to enable enhanced decision making, insight discovery, and process optimization.
Big Data is now being used to train deep learning software
INTERNET AND CLOUD COMPUTING- ADVANCEMENTS IN AI
The Internet and cloud computing make Big Data available to AI
systems, specifically neural networks, and provide the computational capacity needed for AI systems
IMPROVED ALGORITHM- ADVANCEMENTS IN AI
An algorithm is a problem-solving method expressed as a finite sequence of
steps. Researchers are rapidly improving the capabilities of AI algorithms. AI algorithms also run
much faster on GPU chips
4 types of ai tech
expert systems: Systems that mimic humans
machine learning: Algorithms that learn and make predictions about data
deep learning: A subset of ML. Discovery of new patterns without exposure to labelled historical or training data
neural networks: — A set of virtual neurons or CPUs
— Work in parallel to simulate the way the brain works
Application sof AI
- Computer vision
- Natural Language Processing
- Robotics
- Speech Recognition
- Intelligent Agents
— Information agents (i.e. Shopping bot) - Monitoring and surveillance agents (Predictive Agents)
— Constantly observe and report on something of interest - User agents (Personal Agents)
— Take action on your behalf (i.e. Checking your email according to rules
activity: shopping bot
- You have decided to purchase a new “smart” television. To purchase it as inexpensively
as possible and still get the features you want, you use a shopping bot. Visit several of
the shopping bot websites that perform price comparisons for you. Begin with MySimon
(www.mysimon.com), BizRate.com (www.bizrate.com), and Google Product Search. - Compare these shopping bots in regard to ease of use, number of product offerings,
speed in obtaining information, thoroughness of information offered about products
and sellers, and price selection. Which site or sites would you use, and why? Which
television would you select and buy? How helpful were these sites in making your
decision?
activity: my majors
Access the MyMajors website (www.mymajors.com). This site contains a rule-
based expert system to help students find majors. The expert system has more
than 300 rules and 15,000 possible conclusions. The site ranks majors according
to the likelihood that a student will succeed in them, and it provides six possible
majors from among 60 alternative majors that a student might consider.
* Take the quiz, and see if you are in the “right major” as defined by the expert
system. You must register to take the quiz
