• Horario:
• Sábados de 2:15pm- 6:15pm
Intelligence/Artificial Intelligence?
• Intelligence?
• One’s capacity for logic, understanding, communication, learning, memory,
problem solving,etc.
• Artificial Intelligence?
• Intelligence exhibited by machines or software.
• The study and design of intelligent agents.
• The science and engineering of making intelligent machines
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsWbEA7XvOM
• Taking ideas from different fields
• Engineering, biology, psicology, communication theory, mathematics, statistics,
logic and philosophy.
Artificial Intelligence
• Robot is coming Czech word Robota: serf labor, slave work. Two Kind
of Robots:
• Science Fiction robots, look like us, think like us, behave like us: Not Exist
• Robots that does not look like us, does not behave like us. we are enveloping
the world (maps, sensors, databases, algorithms,etc): Do simple tasks ->
Success
• The central problems (or goals) of AI research include reasoning,
knowledge, planning, learning, natural language processing
(communication), perception and the ability to move and manipulate
objects.
Artificial Intelligence
• AI/ENG dept: does not matter is really AI, if It does a good job ->
Success

• AI/Cognitive Science dept:Non-Biological implementation of

Intelligence. Enourmos success if it is intelligent at all -> failing

Artificial Intelligence in Economy/Society

• AI Robots replacing humans?

• Replacing Help Desk Agents, Doctors, Teachers, Journalist, Manufacturing
workers, soldiers, etc?
• AI is bad for humanity?
• Impact in the economy, security, moral, ethic.
• Cloud Robotics
• Access to data from any robot, computation can growth, robots can talk each
other, share software (algorithms).
Artificial Intelligence - History
• 1945-1947: Turing designed ACE (Automatic Computing Engine)
• 1950: Turing Test. Simon,Newell, Cliff developed a program Logic
Theorist. Computer to Play Chess.
http://www.ssyspe.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=562
• 1956: First conference in AI: process symbols, new languages, etc.
• 1960: LISP, Programs ELIZA and others programs. Evolve Adaptive
Systems, Algoritmos Genéticos. Holland.
• 1960,1972: Emergence of Artificial Neural Network.
• In the early 1980s, AI research was revived by the commercial success
of expert systems, but it was very difficult found budget to research in
AI
Artificial Intelligence History
• From 1991 AI achieved greatest success with commercial applications
like logistics, data mining, medical diagnosis, etc. Reason: computer
power.
• On 11 May 1997, IBM Deep Blue became the first computer chess-
playing system to beat a world chess champion Kasparov.

• In February 2011, in a Jeopardy! quiz show exhibition match, IBM's
question answering system, Watson, defeated the two greatest
Jeopardy champions.
• In March 2016, AlphaGo won 4-1 in a Go match to Go champion Lee
Sedol, becoming the first computer Go-playing system to beat a
professional human Go player without handicaps.
AI in Movies
• The Day the Earth Stood Still(1951, Robert Wise)
• 2001: A Space Odyssey(1968, Stanley Kubrick)
• Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977, George Lucas
• The Terminator (1984, James Cameron)
• The Matrix (1999, Wachowski & Lana Wachowski)
• A.I. (2001, Steven Spielberg)
• I, Robot (2004, Alex Proyas)
• The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy (2005, Garth Jennings)
• Her (2013, Spike Jonze)
• Avengers: Age of Ultron(2015, Joss Whedon)
• etc….
Artificial Intelligence - Branches
• AI and related topics classified in some branches:
• Expert Systems
• Natural Language Processing
• Robotics
• Computer Vision
• Machine Learning
• Genetic Algorithms
• Neural Networks
• Deep Learning
• Others
Artificial Intelligence – State of Art
• Since the beginning Computer Science and AI, games have been studied as applications fields.
Turing wrote a chess program
• Currently there are many classical games dominated by computers. i.e. checkers, Chess, tic-tac-
toe… and Go.
• Allis (94) defined the complexity of some clasical games based on Three Search. According to this
classification, a Go Board of 9x9 has the same complexity as Chess has.

• It has been applied different techniques to Games: Minimax Search, Alpha-Beta Prunning, TDL,
Montecarlo, Neuro-Evolution, Co-evolutonary algorithms
• AlphaGo of Google using Artificial Neural Network in combination with tree search.
Artificial Intelligence – State of Art
• Desde Enigma, a Big-Blue …. Watson and AlphaGo

Some Applications of AI ….in Business
• Finance
• Banks use artificial intelligence systems to detect charges outside of norm,
invest in stocks, etc.
• Hospital and Medicine
• It is used clinical decision support systems for medical diagnosis, computer-
aided interpretation of medical images.
• Heavy Industry
• Robots are good in repetitive jobs.
• Online and telephone Customer Service
• Chatbots
• Transportation
• Cars with sensors for active security
• Toys and Games
Learning in AI
• Supervised Learning
• Agents have access to correct the test data or examples that need to be
learned. Agents can learn from the errors between its decisions and the
correct decisions.
• Unsupervised Learning
• In unsupervised learning, there’s no label or target value given for the data.
• The problem of Unsupervised Learning is try to find hidden structure in
unlabeled data.
• Reinforcement Learning
• The correct course of actions is un-known, and the agent has to learn the
good behaviour through trial and error by directly interacting with the
domain.
