Artificial intelligence is intelligence displayed by machines, in contrast with the natural intelligence displayed by humans and other animals. In computer science AI research is defined as the study of "intelligent agents": any device that perceives its environment and takes actions that maximize its chance of success at some goal. Colloquially, the term "artificial intelligence" is applied when a machine mimics "cognitive" functions that humans associate with other human minds, such as "learning" and "problem solving".This book gives its reader a brief introduction to Artificial Intelligence. | Artificial Intelligence by Sybil Foreman, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
