Brainy Fact
In December 1955, Herbert Simon and Allen Newell develop the Logic Theorist, the first artificial
intelligence program.
What is Not AI?
Every automated gadget around us is not necessarily AI-based. The following are some examples of gadgets
that are not AI-based:
• A Fully Automatic Dishwasher: It can work on its own but requires an input from humans. You can select
different parameters/commands and based on your choices, the necessary action is taken. Hence, it is an
example of automation and not AI.
• IP-Enabled Security Cameras: They can be accessed remotely with the help of the internet but still need a
human touch. So, it is an example of the Internet of Things (IoT).
• Robots: They are generally considered intelligent but there are robots that can only perform one task based on a
specific instruction. These robots are extremely efficient but they are not intelligent. For example, industrial robots
are built for one type of task only and they cannot perform anything else.
