• Coined by John Mcarthy in 1956 the concept of how
  Artificial Intelligence (AI) is defined has
  changed over time. With that said the AI at its
  core has always been about creating a computer, a
  machine, a robot or a software program that can
  think intelligently, just like a human.
• AI as a concept is a much broader than merely a
  smart computer or a robot as it is generally
  thought to be. Rather AI is about creating a
  machine/ computer or software which can mimic and
  function just like an intelligent human brain
  functions. It also makes sense to base AI on the
  human brain as we humans are the most capable to
  observe, understand and act in accordance to our
  environment.
• And that is where the challenge lies, creating an
  intelligence artificially that can from the
  information provided or collected, learn,
  observe, understand and provide solutions and
  take actions and at the same time it should be
  intelligent, rational and ethical.

• In other words, AI is a branch of computer
  science whose main purpose is to create machines
  and software as intelligent as humans.
• Aspirations
• Broadly AI has two major purposes
• Create expert systems Systems which exhibit
  intelligent behavior, learn, demonstrate,
  explain, advice and provide solutions to its
  users.
• Implement human intelligence in machines Create
  systems that understand, think, learn and behave
  like humans.
• To further understand or break down the concept
  of AI we need to understand that AI as a
  technology or a science is not an independent one
  but depends heavily on other branches of science
  such as computer science, engineering,
  psychology, mathematics, linguistics and biology.

• The ability of a system to calculate, reason,
  perceive relationship and analogies, learn from
  experience, store and retrieve information from
  memory, solve problems, comprehend complex ideas,
  use natural language fluently, classify,
  generalize, and adapt new situations. All these
  abilities together create what we
  call intelligence. Also, there can be  multiple
  type of intelligence, linguistic,
  mathematical-logical, musical, interpersonal,
  spatial, bodily-kinesthetic to name a few. You
  can say a system has artificial intelligence when
  it is equipped with at least one at the most all
  of these intelligence.
• When we consider the above reasoning we realize
  that AI is no longer a thing of future, it is in
  the here and the now. Consider automated cars,
  virtual reality gaming, factory process flows
  that require no human interventions. Consider
  Siri or Alexa personal assistants who
  understand human speech and understand what we
  want or need. Look at services like Apple store
  or Youtube which suggest us various new music and
  videos based on what we have previously watched
  or showed interest in.

• In closing, there are only small and simple
  examples of what AI is capable of. As AI grows
  exponentially it is imperative to consider its
  long term impact on the environment and human
  race.
