Artificial intelligence (AI)

What is Artificial intelligence (AI)?

Artificial intelligence also known as AI is a wide-ranging or all around branch of computer science concerned with building smart machines capable of performing tasks that typically need human intelligence. It is the simulation or a pretending copy of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. In other words, Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think like humans and mimic their actions. The term may also be applied to any machine that exhibits traits associated with a human mind such as learning and problem-solving.Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think like humans and copy their actions. The term may also be applied to any machine that exhibits traits associated with a human mind such as learning and problem-solving things.

 

What are the examples of AI?

There are many examples of artificial intelligence

Suppose, a toddler is sitting near a fireplace. He/she doesn’t know that the fire would be harmful. So Baby touches the fire and it’s hand or finger gets burnt and the baby hurts himself/herself! So next time, He/she will not touch the fire again as the baby knows that it is harmful and dangerous for him/her. The baby learned through experience.

Similarly, researchers are using the same thing for machines. They are training them so that they can copy human intelligence and learn through experience.

there are many more examples such as Siri, Alexa, google maps and more.

That’s all for today and remember, we learn through experience!

Robotics

  According to media Robotics is a branch of engineering that involves the conception, design, manufacture and operation of robots.robotics, design, construction, and use of machines (robots) to perform tasks done traditionally by human beings.Robots are widely used in such industries as automobile manufacture to perform simple repeating tasks, and in industries where work must be performed in environment dangerous for humans.

Robotics can take on a number of forms. A robot may not be like a human, or it may be in the form of a robotic application, such as robotic process automation, which simulates how humans engage with software to perform repetitive, rules-based tasks.Many aspects of robotics involve artificial intelligence; robots may be equipped with the equivalent of human senses such as vision, touch, and the ability to sense temperature.

Some are even capable of simple decision making, and current robotics research is geared toward devising robots with a degree of self-sufficiency that will permit mobility and decision-making in an unorganized environment. Robots all consist of some sort of mechanical construction. The mechanical aspect of a robot helps it complete tasks in the environment for which it’s designed. For example, the Mars 2020 Rover’s wheels are individually motorized and made of titanium tubing that help it firmly grip the harsh terrain of the red planet.

We’re really bound to see the promise of the robotics industry sooner, rather than later, as artificial intelligence and software also continue to progress. In the near future, thanks to advances in these technologies, robots will continue getting smarter, more flexible and more energy efficient. They’ll also continue to be a main focal point in smart factories, where they’ll take on more difficult challenges and help to secure global supply chains.

What are robots?

Robots are machines programmed by computers. Robots can be guided by an external control device. Most robots are machines designed to perform a task with no regard to their aesthetics. Robots can help us in many ways.

Types of robots

There are many types of robots and some of them are:                                                      1. Mobile Robots                                                                                                                                      2. Industrial Robots                                                                                                                                3. Educational Robots                                                                                                                          4.Service Robots                                                                                                                                    5.Modular Robots                                                                                                                                and many more

What are the uses of robots?

Robots can be really useful to us. Robots are used in manufacturing, packing, transport, earth and space explorations, surgery, weaponry, laboratory research, industrial goods and many more.

Are robots harmful? 

Robots are not usually harmful to humans. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. A robot must obey the orders given by humans. But once a man was killed by a robot. A man name Robert Williams was the first man killed by a robot. He was an assembly worker at Ford’s Flat Rock plant in Michigan. He was crushed to death by the arm of a one-tonne  robot on the production line on 25 January 1979. His family was awarded $10 million in damages.

Can robots replace humans?

Yes, robots will replace humans in some ways like doing jobs, soon in the future, the only one to do jobs will be robots. And there will be job loss, and many workers will have less economic value. But robots can not just totally replace humans because there are many things that humans can do but robots can not.

Can robots take over the world?

Robots could take over 20 million manufacturing jobs around the world by 2030. And many people believe that within the next 10 years there could be 14 million robots put to work in China. And the global will start increasing in the next 20 years because of the robots. But there is no way robots could take over the world.

Hope you got a lot of information about robots from my blog.

Thank you!
