What is the definition of intelligence? It is famously described as the ability of an individual to adapt the behaviour to new environment and conditions. Human intelligence comprises a combination of abilities like learning, reasoning, problem solving, perception and understanding of language.
Replicating the human intelligence has been the topic of research and curiosity for human beings from the ancient times. Creation of thinking machines has always interested us. History too has various examples of this when we find this concept in Greek myths like the ‘Talos of Crete’. The term ‘artificial intelligence’ was coined by John McCarthy in 1956 which he described as the science and engineering of making intelligent machines.
Today, AI Researchers plan to present intelligent machines having ability to perceive, learn and reason like humans. General intelligence is also on the agenda though it comes as a long term goal. General intelligence includes other aspects like social intelligence, judgment, commonsense, robotics and self-awareness into machines. Robotic scientists dream of machines with the capacity of wisdom and the ability to feel.
Advantages of Artificial Intelligence
Robots can be used to explore space. Machines can endure the hostile environments of the interplanetary space where human beings cannot survive. Robots are able to get adjusted to planetary atmospheres without affecting their physical state and functioning.
Similarly, robots are also used to dig the earth in search of fuel and other important metals and mining purposes. With their help we are able to explore the depth of oceans and thus help us to overcome the human limitations. The intelligent programmed robots are able to manage themselves and complete the assigned tasks within stipulated time.
Robotics has made Robots can think logically and take the right decisions without having emotional hindrance. Artificial intelligence is used in completing time-consuming and dangerous tasks effectively.
Intelligent machines can be employed to do certain dangerous tasks. Machines equipped with artificial intelligence can be made to thoughtfully plan towards the fulfilment of tasks and accordingly adjust their parameters such as their speed and time. They can be made to act quickly, unaffected by anything like emotion and take the tasks towards perfection.
