The ever-changing world of computer science, information, and technology has introduced several interesting topics. These topics have been discussed in the academic circles for some time. One of the most intriguing topics raised is the artificial intelligence. Computers have been performing certain tasks that used to be performed solely by human beings before the invention of computers. Nonetheless, they do not operate intellectually as compared to human beings. Scientists have also been trying to harness the powers of the computer regarding intellectual capability. This paper is set to discuss artificial intelligence as a topic in computer science, information, and technology.
Computer systems are believed to possess the power to perform certain complex tasks that the human brain performs. Harnessing this power has been the main problem for the computer scientists. Artificial intelligence promises to build functioning robot with human-like brains. This would enable the scientists as well as other interested parties to turn certain complex processes of the mind into faster computer simulations (Gunkel, 2012). Therefore, the computers would be used to analyze certain past, present, as well as future events. These robots would reduce the level of uncertainty experienced by human beings in decision-making (Brady, Gerhardt, & Davidson, 2012). Artificial intelligence aims at developing software that can replace several thought processes of humans. This would also increase the efficiency of the workforce in the world. Such software can be used to analyze, interpret, as well as present data without the input of human beings.
Artificial intelligence is developing into an interesting field. Its possibilities are believed to be endless. Developing a computer with the same intellectual abilities as human beings would open a world of possibilities. Therefore, it is essential for individuals in the computer science, information, and technology sector to be aware of the possibilities of artificial intelligence.
