Why Artificial Intelligence Matters?


                 Artificial Intelligence has already stepped into our lives. It makes a machine capable of
                 learning from experience, understanding new inputs and performing tasks more like
                 humans. Speech recognition, decision making and visual perception are some areas where
                 AI is doing wonders.
                 Minimizing human error is one of the advantages of using AI over human intelligence. There
                 are some geographical areas where humans cannot operate. In such scenarios, AI can be very
                 helpful. The speed at which AI system works on huge data is better than humans.



                                Brainy Fact


                    Alan Turing, an English Mathematician, devised a test known as the Turing Test. This test is
                    capable of determining the ability of a machine to show human-like intelligence.




                         Difference between Human Intelligence and AI

                 Let us learn about the differences between human intelligence and artificial intelligence.
