A LOOK INTO THE ARTIFICAL INTELLIGENCE AND ITS APPLICATIONS IN VARIOUS FIELDS OF LIFE

Abstract

Artificial intelligence, defined as intelligence exhibited by machines, has many applications in today's society. More specifically, it is Weak AI, the form of AI where programs are developed to perform specific tasks, that is being utilized for a wide range of activities including medical diagnosis, electronic trading, robot control, and remote sensing. AI has been used to develop and advance numerous fields and industries, including finance, healthcare, education, transportation, and more. The scope of AI is disputed: as machines become increasingly capable, tasks considered as requiring "intelligence" are often removed from the definition, a phenomenon known as the AI effect, leading to the quip "AI is whatever hasn't been done yet."^[3] For instance, optical character recognition is frequently excluded from "artificial intelligence", having become a routine technology.^[4] Capabilities generally classified as AI as of 2017 include successfully understanding human speech,^[5] competing at a high level in strategic game systems (such as chess and Go^[6]), autonomous cars, intelligent routing in content delivery networks, military simulations, and interpreting complex data, including images and videos.
