AI in Simple Terms

Last year, I read in many articles that AI was part of the emerging technologies in the years to come, and interestingly enough, this year, we were witness to a lot of progress in this field. As this is an immense field and I won’t be able to expand it fully, I thought it might be good to explain the fundamentals of AI in simple terms for our readers, and in the later articles, how it will benefit your business and our solution for it.  These days AI has become an ordinary term and used almost everywhere, from Google products, to social media platforms like Facebook, to apps in your smartphone and devices in your home.

So what is AI in simple terms exactly?

AI in very simple terms is the ability of computers to act like humans, as defined in Tech Terms. As in this Salesforce article, it means that non-human entities have human-level intelligence and perform tasks intelligently. There are two general AI versions, the “narrow” or “weak” AI, like the ones you usually deal with such as smart search engines and apps, or the computer chess games you play with, or even speech and image recognition. Narrow AI works within a specific scope, so even though it is referred to as “weak” AI, it does its job pretty well. Actually most of AI you see today is weak/narrow AI and it automates a human activity so it serves us well.
