What is Artificial Intelligence(AI) ?

Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence can be described as any task performed by a program or a machine, that if a human carried out the same activity, we would say the human had to apply intelligence to accomplish the task. That obviously is a fairly broad definition, which is why you will sometimes see arguments whether something is truly AI or not.



AI will typically demonstrate at least some of the following behaviours related to human intelligence: planning, learning, reasoning, problem-solving, knowledge representation, perception, motion.

What are the uses for AI? 

AI is ubiquitous today, used to recommend what you should buy next, recommends youtube video suggestions, to display relevant ads to social media users, to understand what you say to virtual assistants like Siri, google assistant, to spot spam or detect credit card fraud.

The chart below will help you to understand the uses of AI in different fields.





What are the different types of AI?

At a very high level, AI can be split into three categories: 
  • ANI
  • AGI
  • ASI
ANI stands for Artificial Narrow Intelligence. It's often called as Weak AI because it specializes in only one category. Examples are self-driving cars, Siri.  AGI stands for Artificial General Intelligence also known as Strong AI or human-level AI because it has the same capabilities as a human ie ability to reason, solve puzzles, make judgements, plan, learn, communicate. Examples include visual perception, speech recognition, decision making, and translation between languages. ASI known as Artificial Superintelligence is the type of Intelligence that is smarter than humans. These AI are not very common in present but may be created in future.


AI has a vast field of area. The chart below shows the different fields where AI is used.

Top Programming languages for 2018 Software Development is a dynamic field. New technologies, in-demand programming language, Frameworks can emerge, rise to fame, and fade away in the course of a few years. So Developers need to constantly be learning new skills to be relevant in the market. Here is the list of programming languages, in order from most to least in-demand. 1.Java Java decreased in popularity by about 6,000 job postings in 2018 compared to 2017, but is still extremely well-established. Java is over 20 years old, used by millions of developers and billions of devices worldwide, and able to run on any hardware and operating system through the Java Virtual Machine. Basically, all android apps are based on Java and big Fortune companies use Java as a server-side language for backend development. 2.Python Python is a general-purpose programming language used for web development, scientific computing, data mining and machine learning. It is one

What Are Frameworks ?

About Frameworks There are multiple solutions for every problem in web development. Do you develop your own solution or do you try to implement someone else’s? Or should you do a bit of both? In fact, the field of front-end web development is rife with frameworks, or code toolsets that solve commonly faced problems. Frameworks make your life easier by simplifying complex problems so you can focus on finishing your project. Simply import a framework and take advantage of your new tools! In computer programming, a software framework is an abstraction in which software providing generic functionality can be selectively changed by additional user-written code, thus providing application-specific software. A software framework provides a standard way to build and deploy applications.
