Artificial intelligence is a branch of computer science focused on creating systems capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence, such as reasoning, learning, and problem-solving.
Key Characteristics of AI:
- Adaptability: Learns from data to improve performance over time.
- Automation: Handles repetitive tasks without explicit programming for each scenario.
- Intelligence: Mimics cognitive functions like decision-making and perception.
Applications:
- Virtual Assistants: Siri, Alexa, or Google Assistant.
- Healthcare: Diagnosing diseases or recommending treatments.
- Finance: Fraud detection or algorithmic trading.
- Fraud Detection: Identifying suspicious activity in financial transactions.
- Predictive Analytics: Anticipating trends or customer needs.
Example:
AI in a self-driving car processes sensor data to recognize traffic signs, obstacles, and pedestrians, enabling safe navigation.
