  2. Artificial Intelligence A definition: • AI is the science and engineering of making intelligent machines

  3. Artificial Intelligence A definition: • AI is the science and engineering of making intelligent machines But, what is intelligence? • A very general mental capability that, among other things, involves the ability to reason, plan, solve problems, think abstractly, comprehend complex ideas, learn quickly, and learn from experience.

  4. Artificial Intelligence Another definition: • AI is the science and engineering of making machines that are capable of: • Reasoning • Representing knowledge • Planning • Learning • Understanding (human) languages • Understanding their environment

  5. Old Times The pursuit of “General AI” Objective: Build a machine that exhibits ALL of the AI features

  6. Old Times – The Turing Test How do we know when AI research has succeed? When a program that can consistently pass the Turing test is written.

  7. Old Times – The Turing Test A human judge engages in a natural language conversation with one human and one machine, each of which try to appear human; if the judge cannot reliably tell which is which, then the machine is said to pass the test.

  8. Old Times – The Turing Test Problems with the Turing test: • Human intelligence vs. general intelligence • Computer is expected to exhibit undesirable human behaviors • Computer may fail for being too smart • Real intelligence vs. simulated intelligence • Do we really need a machine that passes it? • Too hard! – Very useful applications can be built that don’t pass the Turing test

  9. More Recent Research Goal: Build “intelligent” programs that are useful for a particular task Normally restricted to one target intelligent behavior. Thus AI has been broken into several sub-areas: • Machine learning • Computer vision • Natural language processing • Robotics • Knowledge representation and reasoning

  10. What has AI done for us? State of the Art It has provided computers that are able to: • Learn (some simple concepts and tasks) • Understand images (of restricted predefined types) • Understand human languages (some of them, mostly written, with limited vocabularies) • Allow robots to navigate autonomously (in simplified environments) • Reason (using brute force, in very restricted domains)

  11. Machine Learning The key enabling technology of AI Problem Solving in Computer Science

  12. Machine Learning The key enabling technology of AI Problem Solving in Computer Science • Traditional Approach • Write a detailed sequence of instructions (a program) that tells the computer how to solve the problem.

  26. What has AI done for us? Machine Learning – Netflix movie recommender system Idea: • After returning a movie, user assigns a grade to it (from 1 to 5) • Given (millions) of records of users, movies and grades, and the pattern of grades assigned by the user, the system presents a list of movies the user is likely to grade highly
