EXPLORING INTELLIGENCE


                 Our brain is far superior to computers. Computers can be fast but they are not as smart as we
                 are. Let us now explore the term intelligence, something we possess naturally.
                 Activity 1

                 Write the English word that starts with ‘E’, ends with ‘E’ and has six letters in between.
                  E                                                                                       E

                 Which type of intelligence is used in solving this riddle?

                 Activity 2

                 Read out the names of the colours quickly.

                 Blue    Black    Green    Red    Sky Blue    Orange    Yellow
                 Did you feel any difficulty in reading out the names quickly? Why? Which type of intelligence is
                 used in performing this activity?

                           AI APPROACH

                 The aim of AI is to simulate the human attributes of logical intelligence, reasoning and knowledge
                 acquirement  in machines.  We  have been  experiencing  how this  works in the  form of virtual
                 assistants like Siri, Alexa, and Chatbots. Generally, AI models have two kinds of approaches:
                    Rule-based approach                Learning-based approach

                 RULE-BASED APPROACH

                 A rule-based system uses rules as knowledge representation. These rules are coded in the system
                 in the form of if-then-else statements which help the computer in taking decisions. The idea
                 behind a rule-based system is to use the knowledge of a human expert in a specialised domain
                 and embody it within the computer system.

                 LEARNING-BASED APPROACH

                 A computer system  that  achieves  AI through a machine  learning technique  is called a
                 learning-based approach. This approach is often referred to as black boxes as it is not entirely
                 clear how these systems take decisions. This is a major problem for applications when it comes to
                 making a decision for investment, medical or military reasons as this approach remains unreliable.
