All The Ai Terms You Need To Know

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a term coined in the 1950s to describe efforts to develop machines that can reason and solve problems in human-like ways. Machine learning and neural networks are approaches that have become the foundation of today’s AI. Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is the still-unachieved goal of creating AI that can reason and learn in broad ways. Autonomy is the capacity of AI to act on its own to achieve a goal without specific human direction. Self-awareness or sentience is the ability of AI to “know” that it exists and has continuity in time. Generative AI is a machine-learning based AI that trains on sets of real-world data to learn to predict or “generate” the next word or pixel in a sequence. Transformers is a machine-learning programming approach introduced by Google researchers in 2017.
