When we first hear about artificial intelligence, it’s robots that have come to our mind. Then what is Artificial intelligence? Artificial intelligence as known as AI enables for robots to learn from experience, to adapt to new experiences, and to perform tasks of human nature.

“Artificial intelligence, sometimes called machine intelligence, is intelligence demonstrated by machines, in contrast to the natural intelligence displayed by humans.” ~wikipidia

Nowadays, everyone is using a smartphone. Siri in iPhones, google assistant in android is using this artificial intelligence. AI is used to filtering news in the most popularly used application — Facebook. And also google search engine using the same technology for filtering results. Artificial Intelligence is evolving quickly from these things to immense creatures like self-driving cars.

Deep blue was manufactured by IBM, and that is the first computer to win chess in 1996 against the world record holder, Garry Kasper.

Over time AI is capable of learning from errors, make them and move on. That’s how deep blue could win the competition in 1996. In late 2017 the team at Cornell University unveiled AlphaZero, which uses artificial intelligence to play chess, Go(Baduk), shogi(Japanese chess). In each case, it may be beating a world-champion program.

AI is a fully human being who operates without the influence of other humans. A lot of things can be done using AI. Did you know that AI is capable of producing music without human help? Yes, it can!

How does Artificial Intelligence work?

Data is fed (input) into the computer’s artificial neural network and output data, similar to the human process inside their nervous system. The computer is learning the way to analyze the data through humans at the first stage and then they could do it alone.
In each nation, AI can be used to improve security in slots for parking, expressways, shops etc. In Sri Lanka, there is a company called AI & Vision Technology (Pvt) Ltd that has been working on the equipment that can use AI technology to read number plates on vehicles.

What is the difference between AI and Machine Learning?

Many people have been facing in toughness in differing artificial intelligence and machine learning. People think as both terms are the same but they are not. ML’s purpose is to allow machines to learn on their own using the data provided and to make precise predictions.

ML is a subset of artificial intelligence, merely a technique for AI realization. Computers have two ways to teach approaches as supervised learning and unsupervised instruction.
‘Teachable machine’ is an application which can use to train the computer to recognize images, sounds etc.
