Artificial intelligence (AI) is a wide-ranging branch of computer science concerned with building smart machines capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence. Artificial Intelligence can be separated into four types:

  1. Reactive Machines
  2. Limited Memory
  3. Theory of Mind
  4. Self-Awareness

The Advantages of AI

  •  AI drives down the time taken to perform a task. It enables multi-tasking and eases the workload for existing resources.
  •  AI enables the execution of hitherto complex tasks without significant cost outlays.
  •  AI operates 24/7 without interruption, breaks or downtime.
  •  AI augments the capabilities of differently-abled individuals.
  •  AI has mass-market potential and can be deployed across industries.
  •  AI facilitates decision-making by making the process faster and smarter.
