artifical intelligence (AI) - Answers software that enables an IS to mimic or simulate human
intelligence
knowledge management - Answers Acquires, stores, and applies knowledge, but it broadens the
Acquire activity to include creation
Alan Turing - Answers godfather of AI
Reasoning AI Systems - Answers This type of AI uses logic. They acquire, store, and apply
knowledge in the form of logic. They use logical rules. This type of AI system is often now
referred to as Good Old Fashioned AI (GOFAI). AI systems using this type of logic and reasoning
use probability, induction, cause and effect, and planning as knowledge to acquire, store, and
apply.
Pattern matching AI Systems - Answers This type of AI seeks to act from perceptions, but does
not try to copy the reasoning methods humans use. Instead of using the logic that a human
would use, the AI agent matches perceived data with stored data. The effectiveness objective of
this type of AI is to think and act rationally—to imitate intelligent behavior of humans without
using the logical approach mentioned above.
5 components of AI System - Answers •Hardware: Traditional computing system or a robotic
device
•Software: Logic or unconventional algorithms that learn, are goal centered, and are narrow and
specific
•Data: Domain specific, often rules (e.g., "faces are round") and weights of rules
•Procedures: Methods for converting implicit expertise; or the steps to get expertise
People: Experts give rules and initial weights; end users input data and interpret output.
Algorithim - Answers -Series of computer instructions, like a recipe
-Unconventional—a processor does not typically execute it in sequence or as objects but using
logic or pattern matching
Boolean variables - Answers -Variables with two values
How does an AI System support AI activities? - Answers Human Expert->Knowledge Engineer
->Knowledge Base->Inference Engine->User Interface<=>End User
Neural Network (NN) - Answers a technique of AI inspired by the networks of neurons in our
brains and central nervous systems.
, Artificial Neural Nets (ANN) - Answers Like our minds, a neural net is an adaptive system of
nodes and connections that learn. These neural nets are also called _____. Common domains
for neural nets are Google's language translator, spell checkers
Deep Learning/Natural Language Processing (NLP) - Answers ___ studies how AI systems
acquire, store, and apply natural language data, and how computers make sense out of human
language. In a ___ system, different layers attempt to figure out different things in an act of
speech.
Examples of business processes supported by AI - Answers -Medical Diagnosis
-Locating Expertise
-Fraud Detection
-Human Authentication
-Image Classification
-Web Advertisement Placement
Challenges of AI - Answers -Expense
-Expectations
-Limited Understanding of Human Intelligence
-Context Identification
-Unintended Consequences
Narrow AI - Answers accomplishes a narrowly defined intelligent task such as generating a
recommendation, spotting a fraudulent financial transaction, understanding a sentence, or
driving a car. Another example of ____ is intelligent conversation, and a famous conversational
challenge for AI is the Turing test. An AI passes the Turing test if it can fool individuals into
thinking they are talking with a real person.
Broad AI - Answers is a flexible and general intelligence that is applied across a broad set of
tasks such as counseling, planning, or goal setting. Broad AI can accomplish these tasks
because it understands an environment in a way similar to how individuals do.
Singularity - Answers Runaway cycle of self-improvement
Superintelligence - Answers Endangerment of human existence.
Distinguighing Attributes of Robots - Answers -Autonomy
-Lifelike
