MODULE 02 APPLICATIONS OF EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES
ARTIFICAL INTELLIGENCE:
Artificial Intelligence is a method of making a computer, a computer-controlled robot, or a
software think intelligently like the human mind.
The father of AI is John McCarthy was coined the concept in 1956.
Application of AI:
1. Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare
2. Artificial Intelligence in Business
3. Artificial Intelligence in Education
4. Artificial Intelligence in Autonomous Vehicles
5. Artificial Intelligence in Social Media
6. Artificial Intelligence for a Better World
7. Artificial Intelligence in Tourism
Types of Artificial Intelligence:
1. Week AI: It is an AI System that is designed and trained for a specific type of task.
Ex: Siri and Alexa are weak AI. This categorization happens with the help of
unsupervised programming.
2. Strong AI: It is more like human brain and is also known as artificial general
intelligence.
Ex: Visual perception, speech recognition, decision making and translations between
languages, are all examples of strong AI.
Artificial Intelligence Further Categorized into four based on Functionality:
1. Reactive Machines: These machines do not have any memory or data to work with,
specializing in just one field of work. For example, in a chess game, the machine
observes the moves and makes the best possible decision to win.
2. Limited Memory: These machines retain data for a short period of time and use data
for a specific period of time. Their decision making function are generally used in
autonomous vehicles.
3. Theory of Mind: This kind of AI can understand thoughts and emotions, as well as
interact socially. However, a machine based on this type is yet to be built.
4. Self-awareness: Self-aware machines are the future generation of these new
technologies. They will be intelligent, sentient, and conscious.
