Views of AI
• AI is found on the premise that:
– workings of human mind can be explained in terms of
computation, and
– computers can do the right thing given correct premises and
reasoning rules to achieve a specified goal.
Views of AI fall into four categories:
Thinking humanly Thinking rationally
– These Laws of thought governed the operation of the mind and initiated
the field of Logic.

Acting rationally: The rational agent
• Doing the right thing so as to achieve one’s goal, given
one’s beliefs.

perceives and acts)
- argues that computers can only appear to think and are not actually
conscious in the same way as human brains are.
- For example, weak AI researchers see their contribution as things like expert
systems used for medical diagnosis, speech recognition and data mining, which
use "intelligent" models, but they do not help create a conscious agent

Signature Recognition
Industrial robots for moving, spraying,
painting, precision checking, drilling, cleaning,
coating, carving etc.
• Intelligent Robots
- produce mechanical device capable of controlled
motion; which enable computers to see, hear & take actions
- In addition, they Compiled
