Artificial Intelligence(AI)

What is Artificial Intelligence?

It is the ability of digital computers to perform tasks frequently associated with intelligent beings. It is usually applied to projects of developing systems provided with the processes characteristic of humans: the ability to reason, discover meaning, generalize, or learn from past experience (Copeland , 2023).

Types of AI

• Reactive Machines - No memory, responds to different stimuli
• Limited Memory - Uses memory to learn and improve responses
• Theory of Mind - Understands the needs of other intelligent beings
• Self-Aware - Has intelligence similar to that of humans and self-awareness
• Artificial Narrow Intelligence (ANI) - Can only perform specific tasks anonymously using human intelligence.
• Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) - the ability to learn, perceive, understand, and function completely like a human being
• Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) - has greater memory, faster data processing and analysis, and decision-making capabilities

(Joshi, 2022)

Advantages

• More powerful and useful computers
• Introduces an improved interface for human interactions
• Introduces new techniques to solve problems
• Handles data better than humans
• Very helpful for the conversion of data into knowledge
• Improves work, so it reduces the time to complete a task compared to humans

(Advantages and disadvantage of artificial intelligence, 2023)

Disadvantages

• Higher implementation cost
• Development of software is slow and expensive. There are not many programmers that are available to develop software for artificial intelligence.
• Replaces jobs for humans that will lead to unemployment.
• Can be easily lead to destruction if it is in the wrongs hands
