            Since ancient times, humans have tried to be better than others and moved forward with the creation of tools
            that aided them to stay ahead of every other living being. In the attempt to make life easier, humans tried to
            make machines intelligent and smarter. These days we have machines that can think and give responses close
            to a human being. This is how the concept of smart machines came into existence. In this chapter, we are going
            to learn how that change happened and how we came so far.


                    What is Intelligence?


            Intelligence is the ability to learn from experience, to recognize problems and to solve problems. According
            to  Sternberg and  Sternberg—”Intelligence is the capacity to learn from experience, using metacognitive
            processes to enhance learning, and the ability to adapt to the surrounding environment.”

            Intelligence is the capacity to learn and behave adaptively. It can be defined as a person’s abilities to think and
            to learn. For example, students are considered intelligent if they understand the subject content and able to
            score above average grades.
