In the previous class, we have learned 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, learn from previous experience, solve complex problems
            and adapt to new things and environment.



                      TYPES OF INTELLIGENCE

            Humans  possess  the  cognitive  abilities  to  learn, form concepts,  understand,  apply  logic  and

            reason, including the capability to recognise patterns, comprehend ideas, solve problems, make
            decisions, retain information, and using 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.
            There are multiple types of intelligence according to Howard Gardner. Let's learn about them.
