What is AI?

AI, also known as machine intelligence, is all about creating machines that demonstrate the intelligence that is usually displayed by humans in the form of natural intelligence. John McCarthy coined the termartificial intelligence in 1955.

AI has witnessed two winters so far: once in the 1970s with the reduction of funding by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency or DARPA (https://www.darpa.mil/), then known as ARPA, and another time with the abandonment of an expert system by major IT corporates such as Texas Instruments (http://www.ti.com/) and Xerox (https://www.xerox.com/).

In a way, AI aids in the process of transferring decision making from humans to machines, based on predefined rules. In the field of computer science, AI is also defined as the study of intelligent agents. An intelligent agent is any device that learns from the environment and makes decisions based on what it has learned to maximize the probability of achieving its predefined...
