Expert systems, natural language processing, speech recognition, and machine vision are some examples of AI.How does AI workAI requires specialized hardware and software, in order to write and train machine learning algorithms. No programming language is synonymous with AI, but a few, including Python, Java are very famous. This language works on three cognitive skills: learning, reasoning and self-correction.Learning Process:The rules, or algorithms, provide the step-by-step instructions for completing the specific task.Reasoning Process:The AI programming focuses on choosing the right algorithms to ensure the desired outcome of the task.Self-Correction Process:AI ensures that algorithms provide the best possible solution or outcome.Why is AI important for us AI is significant as it can provide enterprises with previously unknown insights into their operations and, in some cases, can perform tasks better than humans. AI tools often complete jobs quickly and with few errors, especially when it comes to repetitive, detail-oriented tasks like analysing large number of data.
