Abstract
Expert systems are computer systems that emulate the decision-making ability of a human expert and make it easier to solve complex reasoning problems using the vast knowledge resources that are available to them. The application of expert systems has on the whole been quite successful in applying artificial intelligence and reasoning to technical and technological fields such as medical diagnostics, remote mission control, system behavior monitoring, pattern recognition and several others. However, as modern technology has progressed and artificial intelligence has evolved, the use of the term “expert system” has decreased, as has the application of standalone artificial intelligence systems, and integrated business applications suites that use expert system frameworks behind the scenes have gained traction. This paper discusses the types of expert systems and their role in integrating with decision support systems to provide efficient managerial support tools. Furthermore, this paper will touch upon the evolution of such executive support systems and their changing nature in the face of modern processes and technologies now collectively known as business intelligence.
1 Introduction
Over the course of technological progress through the years, human endeavors have oftentimes been directed toward the development of artificial intelligence. By definition, artificial “intelligence” is the ability for an artificial – man-made – agent to intelligently use learned or
Artificial intelligence, or AI for short, is “the intelligence exhibited by machines or software.” AI is found in many forms in our society, from video games to traffic predictions to the autocorrect in our phones. When machine personalities are no longer distinguishable from human ones, however, there will be implications for humanity. This advancement will at first be met with skepticism, and the first people to interact with these AI will not consider them sentient beings. Artificial intelligence will eventually be complex enough to exhibit human-like personality, and it is at this point that we will embrace machines, and redefine selfhood to include artificial beings. Once we consider AI sentient, they will rapidly advance until they are
Artificial Intelligence is the taking over of machines to do tasks that would normally require a human to do. The idea of artificial intelligence has been around for years, appearing in movies and television shows to show what the future might bring. Artificial intelligence is becoming closer to a reality and now society must question if it should have a role in society. Artificial intelligence has many flaws at the moment making it impractical for use until society can address the issues facing it like the loss of jobs and how to control the use of AI.
When someone brings up the term “artificial intelligence”, a variety of connotations tend to arise, connotations that often are unfair or unrepresentative of the true real-world applications of such a term. Due to the incidentally fear-mongering nature of the media, artificial intelligence can refer to something as basic as a robotic arm in a factory, as well as the implied extinction and/or enslavement of the human race as caused by robo-revolution. As of today, however, when applied in the world of modern technology, artificial intelligence is defined as any innovation that performs a task usually completed by humans. Of course, with this definition, artificial intelligence holds the potential for both societal harm and benefit, and its fate
Artificial intelligence or AI is in simple terms, the ability for a computer to learn on its own, without any input from the user, and it has the ability to think on its own and make its own decisions and is also able to understand human intelligence. This is done by using tools in many fields. These fields include, but are not limited to computer science, natural language and speech, machine learning and patter recognition, and computer vision (Luke Muehlhauser, 2014). This also includes psychology, cognitive science, neuroscience, economics, probability, and optimization and logic. These are only the beginnings of what is required to meet what is needed to even to begin to scratch the topic of
One of the hottest topics that modern science has been focusing on for a long time is the field of artificial intelligence, the study of intelligence in machines or, according to Minsky, “the science of making machines do things that would require intelligence if done by men”.(qtd in Copeland 1). Artificial Intelligence has a lot of applications and is used in many areas. “We often don’t notice it but AI is all around us. It is present in computer games, in the cruise control in our cars and the servers that route our email.” (BBC 1). Different goals have been set for the science of Artificial Intelligence, but according to Whitby the most mentioned idea about the goal of AI is provided by the Turing Test. This test is also called the
This article elaborated on the concept of artificial intelligence, which to the author is better described as, “Heuristic programming”, or programming that is unpredictable and dangerous. This arises multiple issues such as the ethics and flaws of artificial intelligence. It’s typically deemed unsafe to implement and continue to advance artificial intelligence as there are multiple unnecessary problems that arise from expanding capabilities of AI. The author and professor at Carnegie Mellon University, David Lorge Parnas, has had much experience with the concept of artificial intelligence as he’s been programming for over six decades. Relative to the two books he has published in his life, this article is very new and was published in October 2017, adding credibility to this academic journal.

The purpose of this paper is to bring to light a fresh new perspective of Artificial Intelligence or simply (AI). There have been numerous endeavours to make artificial intelligence which is inclusive of frontiers such as neural network, evolution theory, and so forth, not forgetting that a number of current issues have found solutions in the application of these concepts, the case still remains that each theory only covers a certain isolated aspect of human intelligence. To date, he gap that stands between a human being and an artificial intelligence agent still remains unabridged. In this paper an extrapolated version of artificial intelligence shall be discussed which will be augmented by emotions and the plausibility of inheriting a neural architecture from one generation to the next in a bid to make artificial intelligence to compare to the natural behaviour and intelligence of human
Introduction: The following report sheds light on one specific career option that a group of three scholars chose and shows how their personality traits as well as their interests and employment backgrounds make them either the most qualified or the least qualified for the job position. The job that the group chose was intelligence analyst. The report will explain whether or not there should be competitiveness between the group members when it comes to applying for a similar job in the near future. When one is applying for a career there are many things employers take into consideration. Among the highest are the applicants ' willingness to work in the career field and in the set location. The applicant experience and the applicants ' personality traits that make them stand out from the other applicants are also extremely important.
Artificial intelligence is the development of a computer system that is able to perform tasks of human intelligence like visual perception, speech recognition, and decision-making. Computer scientists have made a substantial advancement in the
Throughout its history, artificial intelligence has always been a topic with much controversy. Should human intelligence be mimicked? If so, are there ethical bounds on what computers should be programmed to do? These are a couple of question that surround the artificial intelligence controversy. This paper will discuss the pros and cons of artificial intelligence so that you will be able to make an educated decision on the issue.
There’s no doubt that Artificial Intelligence makes life easier for humans, It can help us in our day to day to day lives when someone needs directions to their new workplace or a quick answer to a question. However, this new technological system is really only helpful to a certain extent.
In this journal, Berke discusses a the different viewpoints held by different people involved with artificial intelligence. At first, she details progress that has been made recently with programming methods for artificial intelligence. From the rapid advancements being made Berke says, “AI is an attainable goal that technologists and inventors are inexorably approaching” (Berke 115). The paper then looks at opposing opinions about possibilities once these AI systems are in place. Berke then asks which is more likely, “an AI that assists humanity and provides us with answers
The concept of artificial intelligence was first labeled by a man named Alan Turing in 1950, he believed that the future would hold the possibility for man to communicate with computers and sustain a conversation (Atkinson, Solar 1). Although, we have reached the point where it is possible to hold a simple preprogrammed conversation with a computer and give them the ability to learn, there is still a long way to go in making computers fully artificially intelligent. Atkinson and Solar continue to describe some real world applications of artificial intelligence such as, “Data mining technologies, fraud detection, and industrial-strength optimization” (8). In these examples, forms of artificial intelligence like cognitive reasoning abilities are already being used making the demand for them higher.
Artificial intelligence, or AI, is a field of computer science that attempts to simulate characteristics of human intelligence or senses. These include learning, reasoning, and adapting. This field studies the designs of intelligent
