Detail definition: Artificial intelligence is a branch of computer science and engineering devoted to making machines intelligent. Intelligence is that quality that enables an entity to perceive, analyze, determine response and act appropriately in its environment. Systems with artificial intelligence perform functions including, but not limited to, speech recognition, machine vision, or machine learning:

  • Speech recognition transforms human speech into a format useful for computer applications (for example, a digital assistant)



  • Machine vision uses sensors and software that allow images to be used as an input for computer applications (for example, systems that sort or inspect objects or support navigation in mobile equipment)



  • Machine learning uses statistical software and data to “learn” and make better predictions without reprogramming (for example, recommender systems for websites, or sales and demand forecasting)



Artificial Intelligence technologies also include virtual agents, deep learning platforms, decision management systems, biometrics, text analytics, and natural language generation and processing.
