1. Artificial Intelligence

2. Intelligent?

3. What is intelligence? computational part of the ability to achieve goals in the world

4. somewhere, something went wrong

5. What is AI? Computational models of human behavior? Computational models of human “thought” process? Computational systems that behave intelligently? Computational systems that behave rationally !

6. Rationality: Perceiving the world around it, – a rational agent selects an action – to maximize the performance measure Using – Evidence provided in perception sensors – Built in knowledge of the agent

7. Applications of AI Video games, Robocup, NERO Theorem proving Speech recognition Understanding natural language (stories) Machine translation (English-Russian) Robotics (Computer vision)

8. Machine translation The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak

9. English – Russian - English The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak The vodka is strong but the meat is rotten

10. AI applications (contd.) Driving autonomous vehicles Tactical guidance system for military aircraft Satellite meta command system Automatic operation of trains Robots for micro-surgery
