What is artificial intelligence?
Show answerThe science and engineering of creating intelligent machines and software that can perceive, reason, learn, and act to achieve goals.
What is narrow AI?
Show answerAI systems designed to perform a specific, well-defined task within a limited domain.
What is general AI?
Show answerAI systems that can understand and learn any intellectual task that a human can perform.
What is the Turing test?
Show answerA test of machine intelligence where a human evaluator judges whether responses in a text conversation come from a human or machine.
Who proposed the Turing test?
Show answerAlan Turing, a British mathematician and logician.
In what year was the Turing test proposed?
Show answer1950, in Turing's paper 'Computing Machinery and Intelligence'.
What is an expert system?
Show answerA computer system designed to emulate the decision-making ability of a human expert in a specific domain using a knowledge base and inference rules.
What is symbolic AI?
Show answerAn approach to AI that uses explicit symbols and logical rules to represent knowledge and perform reasoning.
What does GOFAI stand for?
Show answerGood Old-Fashioned Artificial Intelligence, referring to symbol-manipulation and logic-based approaches.
What was the Dartmouth Summer Research Project?
Show answerA 1956 workshop at Dartmouth College considered the birth of AI as an academic field, where the term 'artificial intelligence' was coined.
Who were the main organizers of the Dartmouth Conference?
Show answerJohn McCarthy, Marvin Minsky, Nathaniel Rochester, and Claude Shannon.
What is knowledge representation?
Show answerThe practice of encoding information about a domain in a form that a computer can utilize to solve reasoning and decision-making tasks.
What is ELIZA?
Show answerAn early natural language processing program that simulated a psychotherapist by recognizing keywords and patterns, then generating responses through pattern matching and substitution.
Who created ELIZA?
Show answerJoseph Weizenbaum, a computer scientist at MIT.
In what year was ELIZA created?
Show answer1966.
