subsets of Artificial Intelligence

Do you know that the concept of AI started way back in the 1940s, soon after the end of World War II? Indeed, that’s a fact! The foundation of AI was based on a simple question “Can machines think?” We all are aware of the fact that machines function the way we design them to. However, Artificial intelligence changed the way machines work. It was undoubtedly a revolution back then and continues to mesmerize us even in 2021 with unimaginable features. 

But, what exactly is AI and how do top AI companies allow machines to think? In this blog, we will go through the concept of AI and the process it follows. So, read on to learn and satisfy your knowledge cravings. 

What Is Artificial Intelligence? 

Artificial Intelligence is basically a branch of computer science which deals with machine intelligence. It allows machines to think and implement the way they are not supposed to. In other words, they are allowed to think like humans besides the emotions and consciousness processed by us. 

The thought behind the concept of AI remains the elimination of human involvement in tasks that are either too complex or repetitive. With AI integrated with your business, continuous interactions with leads and setting up a customized sales structure won’t be a difficult task. And that’s merely a scratch of tasks AI is capable of pulling out. 

How Does AI Work?

Leading companies in AI provide individual services when it comes to AI implementation in businesses. In order to understand their processes and work structure, we need to get the basics covered. There are various subsets of AI with individual responsibilities and capabilities. These subsets work cohesively to produce an AI implemented task for you. So, let’s jump right into these subsets and understand them individually. 

  • Machine Learning

Machine Learning can be summed up as the brain of AI. It works on the patterns and correlations between the existing data and gains knowledge without human intervention. ML is responsible for designing the algorithm based on the historic data. These algorithms are designed to implement pretext knowledge in machines. 

The wide capabilities of ML allow humans to save their time and energy. The fact that you have someone else to think on your behalf will impact your decision-making abilities, as well.  

  • Deep Learning

Now, deep learning is the sub-branch of Machine Learning instead of AI. Deep Learning allows machines to perform unimaginable tasks without human involvement. Top AI companies claim the exact replication of the human brain with their AI! Deep Learning induces the set of power in AI agents to act like humans. 

Have you ever heard of technologies like image recognition, and speech recognition? Well, the base of all these technologies is Deep Learning. All it takes is lots of data and enormous amounts of computational properties for Deep Learning to process the task assigned to it. 

  • Natural Language Processing

Machines work in different languages, be it Java, C, Python, or Dart. So, what allows computers to understand our conversation or language without the effective use of coding? Natural Language Processing(NLP) is a subset of AI responsible for reading the language we speak, be it English, French, Mandarin, or Spanish. 

Ever heard the words, “Hey, Siri?” Indeed, most of us had! NLP allows the bot to recognize your speech and implement the task you suggested. Speech and Text remain the mode of input and output during the conversation between you and the bot. 

  • Computer Vision

When we talk about Artificial Intelligence, visual information remains an integral part. Think about it, how will you allow the computer to process the information merely by having a glimpse? Computer Vision is a subset assigned for that task. It is an application responsible to read and analyze videos, images, and other forms of visual information to perform the required task. 

Do you want to know an interesting fact? If you combine Computer Vision and Machine Learning in an AI device, it can easily peep through the walls. Well, that is something humans can’t even think of without disturbing the structure of the wall.   

  • Robotics

When you implement each of the aforementioned subsets into a machine, what you’ll receive is a robot. Therefore, the art of designing and programming a robot is known as robotics. Every machine which is capable of implementing its own intelligence based on the learnings is a robot. Even devices which perform with limited human interventions can also be categorized as a robot. 

This particular subset of AI is where the real action takes place. Robotics has a huge influence in the medical sector where complex operations are carried out easily without human involvement. 

Conclusion

All these subsets of AI allow the top AI companies to satisfy their customers and provide an AI-powered solution based on their requirements. Undoubtedly, we have come a long way from the 1940s and have seen a lot of AI-powered applications. However, the future of AI has many surprises packed in a treasure box. All you need is an AI development company by your side to unveil the surprises.
