What is artificial
intelligence?
(AI)
Artificial intelligence
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a set of
technologies that enable computers to
perform a variety of advanced functions,
including the ability to see, understand and
translate spoken and written language,
analyze data, make recommendations, and
so on

In other words, machines that are


programmed to perform certain tasks
automatically without the need for humans
to supervise their work
DEFINITION:
● AI Definition: AI, as defined by John McCarthy, is the science and engineering of creating intelligent
machines, particularly computer programs, not limited to biologically observable methods.

● Turing's Contribution: Alan Turing's 1950 paper posed the question "Can machines think?" and
introduced the Turing Test for distinguishing between human and computer responses.

● Russell and Norvig's Definitions: Stuart Russell and Peter Norvig proposed four AI goals: systems
that think/act like humans and systems that think/act rationally.

● AI Basics: AI combines computer science and data to solve problems, including subfields like
machine learning and deep learning.

● Generative AI Advancements: Generative AI, like OpenAI's ChatGPT, is making strides in natural
language processing and other fields like software code and molecules.

● Ethical Considerations: As AI adoption grows, ethics becomes a crucial conversation, including IBM's
stance on AI ethics.

Types of artificial
intelligence
(AI)
Types of artificial intelligence
AI can be categorized into TWO main types:

Narrow AI (or Weak AI)


Narrow AI refers to AI systems that are designed and trained for a specific task or a limited set of tasks. These
systems excel in performing the tasks they are programmed for but lack general intelligence or the ability to
transfer their knowledge and skills to other domains. Examples of narrow AI include voice assistants like Siri or
Alexa, recommendation systems on streaming platforms, and image recognition software.

General AI (or Strong AI)


General AI represents a hypothetical AI system that possesses human-level intelligence and is capable of
understanding and performing tasks across a wide range of domains, similar to a human being.

AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) refers to a type of artificial intelligence that possesses human-like
intelligence and cognitive abilities. It is still a theoretical concept, and there is no consensus among AI
researchers on whether or not it is possible to achieve. Developing AGI is a complex and challenging task.
AI, Mind Theory, and Self-Awareness
(c) Mind theory
These machines will be able to understand that human beings are made up of feelings
and thoughts that modify their interaction with the world. The behavior of these
machines will have to collaborate with social interaction

(d) Self-awareness
The ultimate goal of artificial intelligence is to create machines that are self-aware

Deep Learning vs. Machine Learning:
Key Differences
04
Advantages and
disadvantages of AI
(AI)
Advantages of artificial intelligence
(+) Automation of repetitive tasks
AI makes our day-to-day life much easier, as machines can perform tasks that are
difficult for us automatically

(+) Reduces human error


Fewer errors, since there is little human involvement and the tasks are performed
automatically, the probability of error is greatly reduced

(+) More room for creativity


It favors the creative process of the human being, since it leaves us with more time to
think freely about future tasks or work actions
Advantages of artificial intelligence
(+) Increased accuracy
By reducing the likelihood of error, artificial intelligence provides high accuracy in
decision making

(+) Decision making


When making decisions, AI plays a fundamental role due to its agility in the search and
connection of information and also the analysis of the data collected
Disadvantages of artificial intelligence
(-) Difficulty of access to data
For an artificial intelligence to work properly, it must have updated and reliable data.
This does not always happen in this way, because being just a machine, sometimes it
does not have all the necessary data to make decisions appropriate to the needs

(-) Lack of qualified professionals


As this is a new technology, the number of qualified professionals who can handle
these tools is very limited
Disadvantages of artificial intelligence
(-) Developing them is expensive
The cost is extremely high. In order to replace or match the human figure with
machines, it is essential to have a large amount of money that can cover the necessary
development and maintenance costs of these tools

Key Real-World Applications of AI Today
● 1. Speech Recognition: Converts spoken language into text, used in voice search
and accessibility features like Siri.

● 2. Customer Service: Virtual agents handle FAQs, offer personalized advice, and
engage customers on websites and messaging apps.

● 3. Computer Vision: Derives insights from images and videos, used in social media
tagging, healthcare imaging, and self-driving cars.

● 4. Recommendation Engines: Analyze user behavior to suggest relevant products


during online shopping.

● 5. Automated Stock Trading: AI-driven platforms optimize stock portfolios with


high-frequency trading, making many trades daily.
