The goal of the subject is to identify solvable and interesting information processing problems, and solve them.” David Marr (1945-1980) What is AI? “It is the science and engineeringof making intelligent machines,especially intelligent computer programs.It is related to the similar task of using computers to understand human intelligence, but AI does not have to confine itself to methods that are biologically observable.” “Intelligence is the computational part of the ability to achieve goals in the world.” What is AI? What is intelligent behavior? perceiving one’s environment acting in complex environments learning and understanding from experience using reasoning to solve problems andto discover “hidden” knowledge applying knowledge successfully in new situations thinking abstractly, using analogies communicating with others what about -creativity? ingenuity? expressiveness? curiosity? What is AI? “I believe that understanding intelligence involves understanding how knowledge is acquired, represented, and stored; how intelligent behavioris generated and learned; how motives, and emotions, and priorities are developed and used; Goals of and Approaches to AI What are goals of AI? to replicate human intelligence (still distant goal) to solve knowled
