History of Artificial Intelligence

  • Greek Mythology: Early concepts of mechanical men (e.g., Talos)
  • 1950: Alan Turing's paper and Turing Test
  • 1951: Game AI - Checkers and Chess programs
  • 1956: John McCarthy coined "Artificial Intelligence"
  • 1959: First AI lab established at MIT
  • 1960-1961: Introduction of first robot in General Motors and chatbot Eliza
  • 1997: IBM's Deep Blue beats world chess champion
  • 2005: Stanford's car wins DARPA Grand Challenge
  • 2011: IBM's Watson in Jeopardy win

Why AI Now?

  • Increased computational power (GPUs)
  • Massive data generation
  • Improved algorithms (neural networks)
  • Investment from tech giants and startups

What is AI?

  • Defined by John McCarthy
  • Science of making intelligent machines
  • Machine's ability to perform human-like tasks

Applications of AI

  • Predictive Search: Google
  • Finance: JP Morgan's Contract Intelligence Platform
  • Healthcare: IBM Watson diagnosing leukemia
  • Social Media: Facebook's face verification
  • Virtual Assistants: Siri, Alexa, Google Duplex
  • Self-driving Cars: Tesla
  • Entertainment: Netflix recommendation engine

Basics of AI

  • Types of AI: Narrow, General, and Super Intelligence
  • Programming Languages:
    • Python: Most effective, simple syntax
    • R: Effective for statistical purposes
    • Java: Search algorithms and neural networks
    • Lisp and Prolog: Historical significance
    • Other languages: C++, SaaS, JavaScript, MATLAB, Julia

Machine Learning

  • Types: Supervised, Unsupervised, Reinforcement Learning
  • Supervised: Labeled data, classification and regression problems
  • Unsupervised: Unlabeled data, clustering and association problems
  • Reinforcement: Trial and error method with rewards
  • Algorithms:
    • Supervised: Linear regression, logistic regression, decision trees, etc.
    • Unsupervised: K-means clustering
    • Reinforcement: Q-learning

Limitations of Machine Learning

  • Cannot handle high dimensional data effectively
  • Requires manual feature extraction

Deep Learning

  • Overcomes ML limitations
  • Mimics human brain with neural networks
  • Perceptrons: Basic unit of neural networks
  • Multi-layer perceptrons: Advanced with hidden layers
  • Back-propagation: Training of neural networks
  • Types of Networks:
    • Feedforward, Recurrent (RNN), Convolutional (CNN)

Natural Language Processing

  • Need: Handling of large unstructured data
  • Applications: Sentiment analysis, chatbots, speech recognition
  • Key Concepts: Tokenization, stemming, lemmatization, stop words, document-term matrix
  • Demo: Sentiment analysis with movie reviews using NaiveBayesClassifier
