• Artificial intelligence (AI) is truly a revolutionary feat of computer
science, set to become a core component of all modern software over the coming years and decades. • AI refers to computational tools that are able to substitute for human intelligence in the performance of certain tasks. This technology is currently advancing at a breakneck pace, much like the exponential growth experienced by database technology in the late twentieth century. HISTORY OF AI • Designed by Newell and Simon in 1955 it may be considered the first AI program. • The term artificial intelligence was first coined by John McCarthy in 1956 when he held the first academic conference on the subject. But the journey to understand if machines can truly think began much before that. • John McCarthy, an American computer scientist pioneer and inventor, was known as the father of Artificial Intelligence (AI) after playing a seminal role in defining the field devoted to the development of intelligent machines. JOHN MCCARTHY TYPES OF AI
• Artificial Narrow Intelligence ( ANI )
• Artificial General Intelligence ( AGI ) • Artificial Super Intelligence ( ASI ) ARTIFICIAL NARROW INTELLIGENCE (ANI) • Artificial narrow intelligence (ANI or narrow AI) refers to a computer's ability to perform a single task extremely well, such as crawling a webpage or playing chess. The rapidly growing field of bots serves as an excellent example of narrow AI at work. In its simplest form, a bot is a piece of software than can run automated tasks that are generally simple and repetitive in nature. • Bots can provide answers to questions like, "What's the weather going to be like today?" "Where should I go for lunch?" "How many visitors came to our website last week?" and so on. Bots pull data from larger systems and deliver just the answer you're looking for – whether it's from a weather site, a restaurant recommendation engine, or a web analytics platform. • EXAMPLES : Google translate, Alexa, Siri etc. ARTIFICIAL GENERAL INTELLIGENCE • Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is the intelligence of a machine that can understand or learn any intellectual task that a human being can. It is a primary goal of some artificial intelligence research and a common topic in science fiction and futures studies • Best example is the robot. Artificial super intelligence • Artificial superintelligence goes a step beyond, and posits a world in which a computer’s cognitive ability is superior to a human’s. • People think this can pose a threat to man kind but that’s still remains a mystery! Its still hypothetical and fictional. AI EVOLUTION From Turing to John Mccarthy to google……..
In the past few years, AI evolved into a powerful tool
that enables machines to think and act like humans. Moreover, it has garnered focus from tech companies around the world and is considered as the next significant technological shift after the evolution in mobile and cloud platforms. Some even call it the fourth industrial revolution. Forbes states, “By 2020, businesses that use AI and related technologies like machine learning and deep learning to uncover new business insights will take $1.2 trillion each year from competitors that don’t employ these technologies.” THE HIERARCH Y DEEP LEARNING vs MACHINE LEARNING vs AI DEEP LEARNING MACHINE LEARNING AI • Is the process of using Artificial Neural • Practice of getting machines to make • Represents Simulated intelligence in Networks to solve complex problems decisions without being programmed machines. It is an area of computer science • Originated around 2008 • Originated around 1970 • Initially originated around 1950 • Deep learning is the subset of AI, Machine • Machine learning is the subset of AI and learning and data science Data science • AI is subset of data science. A vast field and currently the hot topic. • Aim is to build neural networks • Aim is to make machine learn that automatically discover through data so they can solve • Aim is to build machine which patterns for feature detection problems. Aim is to extend are capable to think like accuracy. humans. EXPECTATIONS FROM AI • Virtual Agents • Many businesses, large and small have begun to deploy AI-powered chatbots in their business and organizations to answer website visitors’ questions, help customers check out and qualify sales leads etc. • Speech Recognition • Amazon’s Alexa became a big hit. Voice recognition skills to assist people control everything in their homes. The new -year will see more companies and products adopting speech recognition technologies. • Smart Recommendations • Whenever an online shopping is done you will be inundated with recommendations based on items you have previously purchased or browsed. • Image Recognition • AI has made it possible to teach computers how to see, acquire, process and analyse data from visual sources! Expect image recognition to detect license plates, diagnose diseases, and allow for photo analysis to complete payments or other verifications. AI LIMITATIONS • Explainable AI to dominate demand • As Forrester analysts write, when it comes to explainability and auditability, not all AI is created equal.. • Rediscovering and bringing human expertise back into the loop • Machine Learning is exceptional at data analysis to create models that recognize patterns, automate decisions, and make predictions it lacks in human reasoning abilities. • AI to create the rise in digital workforce • Robotic process automation (RPA) will create the new digital labour force. Till now, firms have been treating emerging technologies distinctly; including RPA for automation and AI for intelligence. • Data doldrums will continue to be a difficult proposition • The No. 1 challenge for AI adopters is quality data, regardless of the state of AI adoptability an individual or organization is in. AI-COLLABORATION AND NOT COEXISTANCE • We firmly believe that innovation around and with Artificial Intelligence cannot be created in silence, but only together: Starting with the collaboration in diverse teams, through colorful mixed panels such as those at the Research Summit, to the cooperation of science and practice.
• The goal is distant but achievable!!!
1. China 2. USA 3. UK 4. CANADA 5. RUSSIA 6. GERMANY 7. NORWAY 8. SWEDEN 9. FRANCE 10. INDIA 2019 THE YEAR FOR GERMANY • Additionally, the Cyber Valley of Germany is luring a lot of international interest and investment. • The German Federal Government pursues 14 goals with its national AI strategy. “Artificial Intelligence (AI) made in Germany” is to become a globally recognized seal of quality. Germany should expand its strong position in industry 4.0 and become a leader in AI applications in this area. • The country is well known for its clockwork efficiency and is sufficiently versed in technical know-how. Germany is all set to blend its tradition with technology innovations. The country is self-assured to possess a leadership in robotics, autonomous vehicles and quantum computing. LACK OF VIABLE AI BUISNESS MODELS IN GERMANY • With this research base and Germany’s strong engineering skills , they are actually predestined to develop innovative AI solutions and to contribute to the advance of the technology. But at the moment they are barely using this potential, as the Germans are too seldom able to bring together science and practice. • What Germans are not really able to do, has already been achieved elsewhere, namely in China and the USA. This is where research and the development of sustainable business models come together, not least due to billions invested in the AI market. PORSCHE DIGITAL LAB • The moto at the Porsche Digital Lab in Berlin is to bring together an interdisciplinary, diverse team of UX designers and analysts, data scientists, physicists and developers. • This diversity enables us to go completely new ways in the testing of technologies and to jointly develop innovative solutions. • Porsche is also a partner of the Cyber Valley in Tübingen, a research cooperation that aims to better connect knowledge from science and industry. • The Lab identifies and tests the information technologies of the future from its location right on the banks of the Spree. • Porsche Lab can take innovations from the fields of big data and machine learning, micro services and cloud technologies, Industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things, and turn them into practical solutions. Their tasks range from trend scouting and ideation to building IT prototypes. NATIONAL AI STRATEGY OF GERMANY • Artificial Intelligence (AI) made in Germany” is to become a globally recognized seal of quality. • Germany should expand its strong position in industry 4.0 and become a leader in AI applications in this area. The strong German midmarket should also benefit from AI applications. • Germany is to become an attractive location for the world’s brightest AI minds. • The focus should always be on the benefits of AI for citizens. • In Germany, data are to be used exclusively for the benefit of society, the environment, the economy and the state.
