What’s Artificial Intelligence?

“Artificial intelligence is the field of computer science or information science that studies how to create computers/machines/ computer software that are capable of intelligent behaviour

SEVERAL VIEWS ABOUT AI

HaugelandThe exciting new effort to make computers think . . . machines with minds, in the full and literal sense" (Haugeland, 1985)

BellMan[The automation of] activities that we associate with human thinking, activities such as decision-making, problem solving, learning ...". Bellman, 1978

WInstonThe study of the computations that make it possible to perceive, reason, and act(Winston, 1992)

7

KurzweilThe art of creating machines that perform functions that require intelligence when performed by people" (Kurzweil, 1990)

SchalkoffA field of study that seeks to explain and emulate intelligent behavior in terms of computational processes-(Schalkoff, 1 990)

LugerThe branch of computer science that is concerned with the automation of intelligent behavior" (Luger and Stubblefield, 1993

Systems that think

like humans

Systems that act like

humans

Systems that think rationally

Systems that act

rationally

“Turing defined intelligent behavior as the ability to achieve human-level performance in all cognitive tasks, sufficient to fool an interrogator- Alan Turing

The history of Artificial Intelligence?

Historical Details

▫1950: Alan Turing – measure of intelligent machines

▫1952-1962 – Arthur Samuel (IBM) first game playing program (checker)

▫ 1956: John McCarthy, Claude Shannon, e.t.c first darmouth college AI conference

▫ 1956: the first term, artificial intelligence was used

▫ 1958: LISP program was developed (McCarthy)

15

Historical Details

▫1959: MIT AI Lab founded by McCarthy and Marvin Minsky

▫1961 – Industrial Robot for General Motors

▫ 1966: Eliza by Weizenbaum▫ 1979: Autonomous Vehicle at

standford AI lab , Hans Moravec▫ 1997:Deep Blue (IBM) beats Garry

Kasparov▫1990s : webcrawlers16

“If compilers and micro-computers were developed in AI labs and were subsequently classified as intelligent machines; are they intelligent enough to be classified as intelligent machines now?

17

“A lot of cutting edge AI has filtered into general application, often without being called AI because once something becomes useful enough and common enough, it’s not labeled AI anymore. Nick Bostrom

18

Artificial Intelligence at present?

“Ich heiβe Tolulope Ogundiji. Ich spreche deutsch ,ein bisschen franzosisch und naturlich englisch aber jetzt, egal. Mit AI, egal es.

20

Our present ▫Microsoft kinect – gesture recognition▫Apple’s Siri and Microsoft Cortana▫Google Bicycle▫Google Self driving cars▫Blue Brain- human brain simulation▫Wolfram Alpha▫You project

Our Role- Nigerian Youths

“ Innovation is seeing old things a little differently. ----

23

History and now

OLD NEW

Herbert Simon predicted that computer

will beat grand chess master (1958)

In 1997, IBM Deep blue beat Garry

Kasparov

In 1959, David Gelemeter

constructed Geometry theorem

prover

Wolfram Alpha- mathematica (siri)

In 1966, a research sponspored by US govt on machine translation was

stopped

Google Translate24

“The next Mark Zuckerberg will not be building a social network and the next Larry Page will not be building a search engine- Peter Thiel –zero to one

25

“Charity starts from home they say, but not only charity, innovation starts home.

26

What ICT tools / materials do we need?

“ICT is a term that describes creating, modifying, storage, transmission and retrieval of information and information products using several electronic devices.

28

“I.T start ups is the easiest business to start with just a laptop , internet and of the biggest your brain. –Low market entry , low competition and high return on investment.

30

What you need ▫Get an internship in an IT start-ups▫Subscribe to coding blogs like

codeproject.com▫Form a group while in school about

an idea you are passionate

31

“Silicon valley is birthed by students/ alumni of stanford university, what IT village will you birth and that lies in hand. You have a role to play in this world and you have to fulfill your mission
