Artificial intelligence
Artificial intelligence (also AI) refers to a software construct capable of near-human, human, or super-human levels of intelligence.[1] Defining characteristics of any AI include machine learning.
AI is currently a major industry growth area and frequently used as a buzzword, similar to jargon such as 'big data'.
Open source projects to develop AI include OpenAI and OpenCog.
Types of AI[править]
There are various types of AI which can generally be broken down into two categories; Weak AI and Strong AI.
TechnoPedia describes the differences between the two as; "Weak artificial intelligence is a form of AI specifically designed to be focused on a narrow task and to seem very intelligent at it. It contrasts with strong AI, in which an AI is capable of all and any cognitive functions that a human may have, and is in essence no different than a real human mind." [2]
In popular culture[править]
AI has been featured heavily in many sci-fi films including A.I., Transcendence, Ex Machina and Avengers: Age of Ultron
Ethics and social impact[править]
There are many different ethical concerns related to AI, which can best be understood by plotting them across two axes: time scale and agent vs. subject.
