Define intelligence by the properties it exhibits
An ability to deal with new situations
The ability to solve problems
To answer questions
To devise plans, and so on
Numeric calculation

Definitions
Artificial intelligence is the study of systems
that act in a way that to any observer would
appear to be intelligent
Artificial Intelligence involves using methods
based on the intelligent behavior of humans
and other animals to solve complex problems

Goal of AI
Why do we need AI?
The main goal of AI:
To create useful smart programs that are
able to do tasks that would normally require a
human expert
Approaches to AI
The definitions on top are concerned with thought processes whereas the ones on
the bottom address behavior
The definitions on the left measure success in terms of human performance, whereas
the ones on the right measure against an ideal performance measure, called
rationality

Everyday AI
Types of AI
Strong AI
Giving computer program sufficient processing power,
and by providing it with enough intelligence
A computer that can literally think and is conscious
ANN
Weak AI
There is no genuine intelligence, no self-awareness
Modeling intelligent behavior to solve complex problems
For e.g computer playing chess
