Artificial intelligence can be defined as the branch of computer science that is concerned with automation of computer system in an intelligent manner as like as humans. Artificial Intelligence focuses on developing computer programs to solve complex problems and process. What humans can do, now can be performed by machines too just, because of artificial intelligence. AI is used because, it saves a whole lot of time and manpower.

Introduction to Artificial
Intelligence

4. Components of Artificial
Intelligent System
There are six major components of an artificial intelligence system. They are
solely responsible for generating desired results from a computer system. These
are:
1. Knowledge Representation: It is the foundation of an artificial intelligence
system. It is a knowledge base with the help of which machines can perform
tasks and generate results as good as humans.
2. Heuristic Searching Techniques: With large knowledge base containing huge
amount of information, searching data from this could be a difficult task. In
order to solve this issue, heuristic searching techniques can be used which can
provide results(because of certain criteria) as early as possible with minimum
efforts.

5. 3. Artificial Intelligence Hardware: Implementation of developed programs can
only be done when a hardware of certain compatibility is present. It must be
fast enough to accommodate and produce searching results. Memory container
should be large as it is needed for the knowledge base. Also, Without the
presence of AI hardware, implementation of AI systems would fail.
4. Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition: This component enables AI
programs to capture the inputs on its own by generating a real world scenario
against it. Also, good hardware will be able to gather patterns and those
patterns further can be used as knowledge.
5. Natural Language Processing: It is an engineering of system that processes or
analyses written or spoken languages. Speech recognition is not sufficient to
capture real world data. Only acquiring the word sequence into computer is not
enough and parsing the sentence is not enough either. Hence, Natural Language
processing provides the understanding of domain of text to the computers.
6. Artificial Intelligence Language and Support Tools: Artificial Intelligence
languages are similar to software development programming languages but
with a slight difference, as AI languages tries to capture human brain processes
and logic as much as possible. One of the mostly used language in AI is the
mathematical concept of “Logic”.

6. Characteristics of Artificial
Intelligence System
Any Artificially Intelligent system would possess the following
characteristics that would differentiate it from normal machine/robots.
Computer system thinking and performing like humans.
1. Intelligent Behaviour.
2. Speech Recognition Ability.
3. Computer Vision Ability.
4. Decision making Ability.
5. Keeps on learning and improving in order to generate desired results.
Smart Enough?

7. Intelligent Agents in Artificial
Intelligence
• Intelligent Agents are self-driven entities having the property of
observing through sensors and acting upon it through actuators in order
to achieve goals.
• With the help of learning and knowledge extraction ability, Intelligent
agents can achieve their goals.
• There are different intelligent agents based upon their functionalities i.e.
simple intelligent agents and complex intelligent agents.
For example: Robotic Bots.
• There are mainly five types of Intelligent Agents. These are:
1. Simplex Reflex Agents.
2. Utility Based Agents.
3. Model Based Reflex Agents.
4. Learning Agents.
5. Goal Based Agents.

8. Applications of Artificial
Intelligence
• In real world scenarios, there exists as many possible applications present
holding the concept of artificial Intelligence. Some of the major
applications are listed below :
1. Natural Language Processing.
2. Speech Recognition System.
3. Computer Vision.
4. Robotics.
5. Game Playing.

9. Future of Artificial Intelligence
• With change and improvements in artificial intelligence technology, one
can easily depict that future of artificial intelligence will be a great boon
and will affect (in positive direction) humans the most.
• Artificial Intelligence would be able to outperform humans in almost every
field. From science and technology to machinery, transportation to
automation, weather to environmental effects and many more. All of the
fields which one can think of will be taken off by artificial intelligence and
it can have adverse effects on humans too.
• All the work related to any of the fields will be automated which will
finally result in layoff in jobs in almost every sector.
• Apart from this it would have positive effects too. Higher accuracy and
precision will be reached. For example in medical surgeries, all of which
would be automated and done by robots only which would result in less
chances of faults an errors.
• The possibilities are endless as artificial intelligence is getting more
intelligent and futuristic day by day.
