13.10. Summary

Key Takeaways

  • The Turing Test is a test to determine a machines ability to think and therefore imitate human behaviour.
  • Advancement in AI technology was slowed due to the computers lack of processing power and inability to store information as well as the price.
  •  Expert systems have been used for many years to streamline knowledge, and make decisions.
  • Artificial intelligence (AI) is the ability of a computer to think and learn.
  • AI can be categorized based on ability and functionality.
  • Autonomous technologies are one of the most widely used applications of AI. They include: nanobots, driverless cars, and UAV.
  • Robots are a type of autonomous technology that automate process with little, or no human interaction.
  • Machine learning and deep learning use algorithms, and neural networks  to imitate the way humans learn.
