Definition of AI

• Luger (1999)- branch of CS that is concerned with
  the automation of intelligent behaviour
• Norvig and Russel (1995)defines in 4 ways
• System that think like human
• "The automation of activities that we associate
  with human thinking, activities such as

  (Bellman, 1978)
• System that act like human
• "The study of the computations that make it
  possible to perceive, reason, and act" (Winston,

• "The branch of computer science that is concerned
  with the automation of intelligent behavior"
  (Luger and Stubblefield, 1993)
