Artificial Intelligence

 

 

• Term Artificial Intelligence (AI) was first coined by, John McCarthy in 1956.
• Artificial Intelligence is the creation of machines to impersonate the human capabilities.
• AI systems have been used for creating solutions for individuals and society.
• Main areas where AI has made the most possible advancements are:
  • To see
  • To communicate
  • To move
  • To think

 

 Areas where AI is used

• Music and Media: Apps like Spotify, Netflix, or YouTube.  
• Smart Home Devices: To adjust the house temperature and lighting based on the preferences.
• Smart phones: Features like face detection, virtual reality elements, photo editor.
• Social Media Feeds: Feeds that you see in your timeline along with the notifications.
• Video Games: Game such as PUBG or Fortnite.
• Navigation and Travel: Google Maps.
• Security and Surveillance: Object recognition and facial recognition.  

 

Gamification

 Gamification is the process of adding the game-like components to a task as to encourage the user participation.  

 

 Natural Language Processing

Technology with which the machine understands the human language and then perform an action based on the command. 

 

Computer Vision

 Computer Vision is concerned with both the theory and technology for building up an Artificial system which obtain information from images.

 

Smart Home

A home which one can managed remotely to control the appliances such as TV, AC, fridge with smartphone.

Google Home

A smart speaker which is a Google device and can be integrated with the automation to control home appliances with voice recognition by using internet.

Python

• A high-level programming language
• Created by Guido Van Rossum (Benevolent Dictator for Life)
• First released in 1991
• Python interpreters are available for many Operating Systems

Why Python is popular:

• It is free to use and distribute
• Its code is readable, reusable and maintainable
• Its program runs on every major platform which is currently in use
• It has strong library support from Text pattern matching to networking
• It can communicate with COM, .NET frameworks

Python is powerful as:

• It allows dynamic typing and has powerful library  
• No need to declare variable
• It allows automatic allocation and garbage collection
• It supports classes, modules and exceptions
• It gives interactive programming experience

Python is used for:

• System programming
• Building GUI applications
• Internet scripting
• Database programming
• Game, Robotics programming

Some organizations which uses Python:

• Google: for web search system
• YouTube: for video sharing service
• JP Morgan, Chase, UBS: for financial market forecasting
• NASA, FermiLab: for scientific programming
• NSA: for cryptographic and intelligence analysis

You can get Python source code, binaries and documentation:

• Python official website: www.python.org
• Documentation website: www.python.org/doc

Once the Python is installed, the program development can be done by using the built-in Python Integrated Development and Learning Environment (IDLE).

In case, if you have not install any Python development tool on your machine, you can use the online Python shells. Some of the online Python shells are:
