Artificial Intelligence By Example

By: Denis Rothman

Overview of this book

Artificial intelligence has the potential to replicate humans in every field. Artificial Intelligence By Example serves as a starting point for you to understand how AI is built, with the help of intriguing examples and case studies. Artificial Intelligence By Example will make you an adaptive thinker and help you apply concepts to real-life scenarios. Using some of the most interesting AI examples, right from a simple chess engine to a cognitive chatbot, you will learn how to tackle the machine you are competing with. You will study some of the most advanced machine learning models, understand how to apply AI to blockchain and IoT, and develop emotional quotient in chatbots using neural networks. You will move on to designing AI solutions in a simple manner rather than get confused by complex architectures and techniques. This comprehensive guide will be a starter kit for you to develop AI applications on your own. By the end of this book, you will have understood the fundamentals of AI and worked through a number of case studies that will help you develop your business vision.

Chapter 14 – Optimizing Blockchains with AI

1. Cryptocurrency is the only use of blockchains today. (Yes | No)

No. IBM HyperLedger, for example, uses blockchains to organize secure transactions in a supply chain environment.

2. Mining blockchains can be lucrative. (Yes | No)

Yes. But it is a risk, like any other mining operation. Some companies have huge resources to mine cryptocurrency, meaning that they can beat smaller competitors to creating a block.

3. Using blockchains for companies cannot be applied to sales. (Yes | No)

No. False. Blockchain cloud platforms provide smart contracts and a secure way of managing transactions during a sales process.

4. Smart contracts for blockchains are more accessible to write than standard offline contracts. (Yes | No)

Yes. If they are standard contracts, this speeds the transaction up.

No. If the transaction is complex and requires...
