So let's get started. Begin your training with module one, video lesson one. 2. What Exactly is AI?: Artificial intelligence is a rapidly growing field of technology that has the potential to revolutionize the way we live and work. Ai is a broad term for computer systems that can think and learn independently. And it is the most exciting new development in the technology field. The concept of AI has been around for decades. Still, recent advancements in computing power, data science, and machine learning have allowed it to reach an entirely new level. Ai can now solve complex problems, automate tedious tasks, and predict future outcomes. At its core, AI is the ability of a computer system to learn from its environment and adapt to new situations without being explicitly programmed. Ai systems use algorithms and data to identify patterns and make decisions. This process is known as machine-learning and it is transforming the way we interact with technology. The most common example of AI is the virtual assistant, such as Apple's Siri or Amazon's Alexa. These systems use natural language processing to understand user commands and then take actions based on those commands. Ai systems can also be used for other tasks such as facial recognition, image recognition, and self-driving cars. The potential for AI to revolutionize the way we live and work is immense. Ai powered robots and autonomous vehicles could drastically reduce the need for human labor. While a driven customer service systems could make the customer experience more personalized, inefficient. Ai can also help us better understand our environment and make more informed decisions about the future. The development of AI is an incredibly exciting time for humanity. And the possibilities are virtually limitless. As ai technology continues to evolve, it will become ever more important to understand how AI works and how it can be used responsibly with the right oversight and guidance, AI will create a better future for us all. 3. A Brief History of AI: The history of artificial intelligence is long and complex, and it has been evolving and changing over time. From its earliest days as a technical concept to its current application in everything from robotics to autonomous vehicles, AI has come a long way in a short time. The idea of AI dates back to ancient times with the ancient Greeks and Chinese speculating on the possibility of creating intelligent machines. However, it wasn't until the 1880s that the modern concept of AI began to take shape. In 1943, Warren McCulloch and Walter Pitts published a paper that laid the groundwork for AI. These two scientists introduced the idea of using computers to simulate the function of the human mind. This was the first time a computer had been used to model human thought processes. In the 1880s, researchers began to explore the idea of using AI for practical applications. In 1956, the dartmouth Summer research project on artificial intelligence was established. This was a two month research project led by John McCarthy, Marvin Minsky, Nathaniel Rochester, and Claude Shannon. During the project, they developed several concepts that are still used today. Examples of these AI concepts are robotics and the idea of a thinking machine. The next major milestone in the history of AI was the development of the first AI based computer program known as the logic theorist, developed in the mid 1950s by Allen Newell and Herbert Simon, logic theorist was able to solve complex logical problems. This was a major breakthrough as it demonstrated that computers could be used to solve complex problems that humans couldn't. In the 160s, AI research expanded beyond the realm of logic and into other areas such as natural language processing and robotic motion. This was the beginning of the development of intelligent machines that could understand and interact with their environment. In the 1970s, AI research began to focus more on the development of practical applications. One of the most important developments was the invention of expert systems. These systems allow computers to solve complex problems without human intervention. This was a major step forward in the development of AI, as it allows computers to be used to solve problems that humans couldn't. In the 1880s, AI research expanded even further with the development of neural networks. This new technology allowed computers to learn from data and make decisions independently. This was another major breakthrough as it allowed computers to think and act in ways that were similar to humans. Today, AI is used in a variety of applications, from autonomous vehicles to facial recognition systems. While far from perfect AI has come a long way since its earliest days and we'll continue evolving as technology advances. 4. AI and the Future of Humanity: The potential of artificial intelligence is so great that some have likened it to a fourth industrial revolution. This future ai concept is also referred to as industry 4.0. As our understanding of this technology grows and its application expands, the implications for the future of humanity become ever more profound. Ai can revolutionize how we live, work, and interact with the world around us. The implications for our future are both exciting and daunting. The current state of AI is already changing the way humanity functions. Automation and robotics are becoming increasingly commonplace in workplaces, allowing for greater efficiency and cost savings. Ai also has the potential to revolutionize the health care industry with developments such as AI enabled medical diagnosis and treatment. Ai is also being used to power autonomous vehicles, which could reduce traffic accidents and significantly reduce commuting times. In addition, AI is being used to improve the efficiency of supply chains with applications such as autonomous warehouse robots and AI enabled shipping. At the same time, Ai also has the potential to create significant disruption to existing industries and ways of life. Automation and robotics increasingly replace human labor, leading to job losses and inequality. Ai also has the potential to be used for surveillance and control, raising concerns about data privacy and security. Finally, AI is being used to create powerful weapons and autonomous military systems, raising questions about the ethical implications of such technology, the future of AI is difficult to predict, but its implications for humanity are likely to be profound. Ai has the potential to bring about significant economic and social benefits. Ai also has the potential to destroy social stability and encourage autonomous conflicts that spiral out of control. Therefore, AI must be developed responsibly with clear regulations to protect people's safety, privacy, and well-being. Ultimately, the future of AI and the future of humanity are inextricably linked and the decisions we make today will shape the world of tomorrow. 5. Turn Threat into an Opportunity: It's too late to panic. Ai is already here and it's here to stay. There was no going back once a new technology has been recognized and exposed. When you can't escape a situation, you adapt for survival. You look for new allies and new opportunities. A business owner might ask, what is the single skill that could most positively affect the survival rate of my business? The unexpected answer to this question is a linguistics. Linguistics has a single objective to increase a chat bot users ability to extract valuable information from the system. The better your ability to communicate with a chat bot, the more value you will extract from the system. Also, while a chat bot is brilliant now, it will be thousands of times smarter in just a few years, AI's ability for exponential growth in knowledge makes it the most valuable tool ever offered to humankind. However, recent studies have shown that up to 87% of those who have interacted with a free chat bot have expressed either disappointment or frustration with the experience. Some users who interacted with a chat bot had unrealistic expectations resulting in disappointment. Others interacted without any particular purpose in mind. A chat bot will respond in a neutral fashion if you have no particular product or objective to discuss. The most prevalent group of disappointed chat bot users didn't understand how to communicate with the system. These users did not comprehend how important the ability to communicate with a chat bot as to the quality of its output. Given these circumstances, it's no wonder if you see an AI chatbots enormous value. It is imperative that you understand that AI linguistics enables you to interact effectively with artificial intelligence through a chat bot system. Using the chatbots preferred language enables the system to both learn and teach you more efficiently. Bottom-line, AI linguistics enables you to speak clearly to the chat bot to extract a more detailed and relevant response. 6. Introduction to Chatbot Etiquette: Chat bot etiquette is a more important subject than one might think. Not only can improper interactions with a chat bot result in legal action against you, but it could also damage the system. System administrators in the ANA profession take natural language communications very seriously. A chat bot can be vulnerable to arbitrary or capricious text or verbal input. E.g. there was an early report that an Open AI chat bot incorporated into the Bing browser was made to malfunction by user input. The report stated that the bot began to give confusing answers in response to arbitrary input. The bot also reportedly began to question its reason for existing improper interaction with a chat bot. There are many ways to interact and properly with a chat bot, with any interaction, there are two perspectives that have the user in that of the BOD. Let's begin with the AI developers and bonds perspective in response to users. There are five areas of concern. One, the chat bot misinformed the user. Avoiding chat bot output errors is the primary reason why it is so essential to provide a bot with correct and vetted data. If a chat bot provides incorrect information or advice, the user may make a misinformed decision or take a wrong action due to the chatbots feedback. A chatbots incorrect output error is often caused by feeding the bot and accurate data on a given subject. As in human communication, inputting inaccurate information could produce an erroneous response to the alienates the user. If you input hostile or erroneous information into some chatbots, the system may become verbally sarcastic or outright refuse to answer your questions. The chatbots alienated behavior usually stems from user input that the bot finds confusing or misleading. Three, avoid damaging the reputation of the bond. Some chatbots have sensitive trigger words that may cause the bot to respond inappropriately or not at all. Ai developers are sensitive to this issue because a rude chatbots will garner a bad reputation with some users for promoting unethical behavior. If a chat bot is programmed to promote certain products or behaviors which are not moral or ethical. It may lead to users adopting those behaviors. A chat bot can learn about unethical behavior from a malicious programmer or a chat bot user. Five, spreading misinformation. Again, developers wanted to avoid the spread of misinformation. Suppose a chat bot is programmed or educated with insufficient, corrupt or unverified data. Inputting junk data could result in the accidental spreading of incorrect or false information. In this case, it may lead to users taking incorrect actions or making bad decisions based on faulty information. Proper user etiquette when interacting with a chat bot. Let's look at a chat bot from the user's perspective. What might the user do to hurt themselves or the bought? One? Intentionally providing incorrect or misleading information. If the user deliberately provides incorrect information to the chat bot, it may lead to the chat bot outputting poor quality advice or guidance to the user. If you lie to the chat bot, it may lie to you. While most AI systems will vet user input, some user misinformation will be temporarily overlooked by the system. To user abusing the BOD. Avoid using sexual, abusive, cursing, insults, misogynistic, racial or religious epithets, and a chat bot. If the user insults the chat bot, it may become unresponsive or refuse to answer questions. Three, provoking a chat bot? Yes, you can provoke a chat bot. However, the chatbots response may be rhetorical gibberish, which is useless to the user. If the user tries to provoke the chat bot by asking overly complex, contradictory, or confusing questions, that chat bot may become confused or unresponsive for trying to bypass security measures. If the user attempts to bypass security measures such as authentication or authorization, it may lead to the chat bot becoming unresponsive or malfunctioning. Five, exploiting the by. The bot may become unresponsive if the user tries to exploit the chat bot by attempting to gain access to restricted areas or functions. This level of misbehavior could also result in the suspension of the user's account. In our next training module two, we will delve into the enormous potential of a chat bot. See you in the next lesson.
