Artificial Intelligence
Scientists always stumbled upon the question, “Can a machine think and behave like
humans?“. This question led to the invention of one of the most advanced technologies
of all times, AI. Artificial Intelligence is a branch of computer science that pursues the
creation of computers and machines which are as intelligent as human beings.
According to the father of Artificial Intelligence, John McCarthy, AI is “the science and
engineering of making intelligent machines, especially intelligent computer programs”.
Aims of AI
AI is an advanced and capable technology that has the potential to change the future of
the world. It was created with a singular aim to make machines smarter, but with time, it
evolved. This evolution led to the usage of AI in various other fields that were previously
not in the scope of AI. Let us take a look at some of the objectives of AI.
To Implement Human Intelligence in Machines
As you know by now, the sole purpose of development of AI was to make machines
smarter and capable enough to work on their own.
