You have guessed the above word using your intelligence. Intelligence helps us solve problems
by applying logic and reasoning using our cognitive abilities.
In previous class, you have learnt that artificial intelligence refers to the software technologies that
make a robot or computer act and think like humans. It is the simulation of human intelligence
processes through machines, especially computer systems. Artificial intelligence imparts cognitive
ability to machines, meaning it can make machines perform tasks in ways that are intelligent.
INTELLIGENCE
Intelligence refers to the ability to think, to learn from previous experience, to solve complex problems
and to adapt new things and environment.
TYPES OF INTELLIGENCE
Humans possess cognitive abilities to learn, form concepts, understand, apply logic and reason,
including the capability of recognising patterns, comprehend ideas, solve problems, make decisions,
retain information and use language to communicate.
According to the Harvard psychologist Howard Gardner's theories, humans do not just have an
intellectual capacity but also many kinds of intelligence. A person can be strong in a specific area,
such as logical intelligence or musical intelligence but simultaneously can also possess a range of
abilities.
