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.

process huge data manually. speed is much faster than that of
human beings.
