Introduction to Artificial
Intelligence (AI)
What is AI?
“The science and engineering of making
intelligent machines”
(John McCarthy, 1956)
“The act of creating machines that perform
functions that require intelligence when performed
by people.” (Kurzweil, 1990)
Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Deep
Learning
Early Days AI
In early days, AI research was slowed down by
● computer limitations
● lack of mathematical understanding
Different Types of AI
● Able to perform specific task
Artificial Narrow autonomously with human-like
Intelligence capabilities
(ANI) ● Can do nothing more than what
they are programmed to do.
● Able to learn, perceive,
Artificial General understand and function
Intelligence completely like a human being.
(AGI)
● Exceed human level intelligence
with greater memory, faster data
Artificial Super processing and analytics, and
Intelligence decision making capabilities.
(ASI)
Different Domains of AI
Neural Network Robotics Expert System
Computer Vision Speech Processing Natural Language
Processing
Why now?
Large Volumes of Data
The growth of the internet has generated massive amounts of data.
Moore’s Law, GPUs
The level of compute has increased to the point in which computers can now
process large datasets at reasonable speeds.
Proliferation (rapid increase) of Applications
IoT, Smartphones, Computers, Cloud Computing
Reasons industries start adopting AI
To curb pain points To provide unique offerings To retain increasing
crowd of customers
AI reach deep into organisations to affect end-to-end workflow.

Machine Learning
● Get structural description / model from data
analysis, then use it predict on future unknown
data
● Structural description/model has different forms
○ Decision tree
○ Support Vector Machine
○ K-means clustering and others
● Data scientist use different methods on different
domains
Machine Learning Models
Decision Tree Support Vector Machine K means clustering

Advantages and Disadvantages of AI
Advantages and Disadvantages of AI
Advantages Disadvantages
1. Reduction in Human Error 1. High cost
2. Helps in repetitive jobs 2. Leads to unemployment
3. Can perform laborious task 3. Issue of AI-Bias
4. Can work continuously and efficient 4. Lack of human emotions
5. Can make rational and accurate decisions 5. Lack of understanding of ethics and legal
6. Helps human in risky situation
Issues and Concerns Surrounding AI
Deep Fakes
● Put thousands of hours of
video or photos into an AI
system
● AI starts to recognise
facial features and
characteristics from the
footage
● Overwrite clips with new
video or audio
