6 Yesterday, I watched a movie in which
many robots worked like humans. They could communicate, learn and sense.
Is it possible for a machine to work similar to human being?
Yes, it is possible for a machine to work similar to human beings with the help
of Artificial Intelligence and Robotics.
In today’s rapidly changing world, technology has played a major role. Newer technologies
are evolving every day across the globe. To keep ourselves updated, it is important for us
to know about the latest technological developments. In this chapter, let us upgrade our
knowledge about some latest technologies.
There are a number of latest technological developments. Some of them are Artificial
Intelligence, Intelligent Apps, Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality, Internet of Things,
3D Printing and Robotic Process Automation. Let us learn about these.
Artificial Intelligence
You have already read about Artificial Intelligence in earlier classes. AI is a branch of
computer science that aims at creating expert and intelligent computer systems that
simulate certain human qualities such as, learning, reasoning, communicating, seeing, hearing,
and sensation. AI is used to create intelligent machines that help us. AI is a part of almost
everything we use today such as smartphones, cars, and banks.
