ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE : In This Beginner’s Guide, You Will Gain Knowledge of Artificial Intelligence Technologies

An entertaining and approachable journey into the past and potential of one of the most cutting-edge and poorly understood areas of modern science, brought to you by Oxford's foremost researcher in artificial intelligence: Artificial Intelligence
To create machines that are conscious, self-aware, and sentient; machines capable of the kind of intelligent autonomous action that, at this time, only people are capable of is the somewhat nebulous long-term goal of artificial intelligence (AI), also known as machine learning. Professor Milton Welch is an expert in artificial intelligence research with more than 25 years of expertise. Over the course of his career, he has learned to be obsessively cautious about such claims, while at the same time advocating an incredible optimism over the future of the area. In the past ten years, there have been true scientific discoveries that have made the development of AI systems conceivable. These achievements would have been heralded as miraculous by the pioneers of the field. There are many examples of artificial intelligence technologies that have become a realistic, everyday reality in the past few years, and which will have a significant impact on our world. Two such examples are driverless cars and automated translation systems.
The dream of conscious machines is still, in Professor Milton's opinion, a distant vision; nonetheless, the gates have been opened for artificial intelligence.
