One day at the family barbecue, I was flipping the burgers while discussing with my cousin her new phone. She demonstrated to me how it could recognize any plant in her garden by only pointing the camera at them. “How does it know?” I asked, expecting her to give a half, hearted reply. Instead, she smiled and said, “It’s AI, dummy!” That moment set my mind throbbing with thoughts about AI, and since then, I have been exploring it.
So, what is AI? If you are wondering how your phone can always guess what you want or why Netflix is always on point with your next binge, watch, then this guide is just made for you. I’m here to break down the basics of artificial intelligence in the most informal manner, like we were having a coffee chat, suitable for AI beginners.
The journey to understand AI will show what AI is, the different nature of AI, how it works and why it is changing the whole world. I will also narrate several incidents from my life, such as when AI rescued me from a difficult situation by finding a lost photo, and use the real world examples to make it all clear. By that time, you’d acknowledge AI as a tool of not only tech geeks but for everyone. Pick a spot and venture with me into AI’s marvels.
