What Is Artificial Intelligence (AI)? | Google Cloud

Artificial Intelligence, short form AI, is greatly defined by many people in many ways. For students or those who study AI, it is the study of how a computer would solve a problem typically required human.

AI is the area of computer science that studies how machines can closely imitate human.

The broad and optimistic definition of the field of AI could be: “The area of computer science that studies how machines can perform tasks that would normally require a human beings”

The facts about the world around us need to be represented in some way for a system to make sense of them. If knowledge is represented efficiently, systems can be smarter and more intelligent

Computers do not think. However, applying AI, we make them think. The goal is to make the computers think as human as possible.

Split the words Artificial Intelligence

“Artificial”: Man-made, created by human

“Intelligence”: The ability to acquire and apply knowledge, skills

Taking this simple case: There are two device stores that sell the same model of MacBook Air. One is at the local store near your house (the cost for the macbook is 150$), one at the score further from you (but it only cost 50$).

Another, you have to select the best path to earn the most money: You start at the node 50$, then you have two paths to choose one with 35$, and one with 50$, but the adjacent path contains $1000 and $45

“The greedy approach will select the first path 50$ and completely ignore the 35$

→ Which option is more intelligent.
