Unit 2: 1. What is Artificial Intelligence?
Artificial Intelligence is the branch of computer science focused on building intelligent systems capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence, such as visual perception, natural language understanding, reasoning, and game playing.
Four Approaches to AI:
- Thinking Humanly: The cognitive modeling approach (replicating human mind processes).
- Acting Humanly: The Turing Test approach (indistinguishable human imitation).
- Thinking Rationally: The "laws of thought" approach (Aristotelian syllogistic logic).
- Acting Rationally: The rational agent approach (maximizing expected utility in an environment).
