Аrtificial intelligence – it is the ability of a machine to imitate human thinking. This is the name of modern technology, with the help of which electronic devices, programs and robots can solve various tasks according to specified algorithms.

The topic of artificial intelligence and machine thinking interested scientists even before the invention of computers, and after the advent of computers reached a new level. In the 1950s and 60s, issues related to the creation and use of artificial intelligence began to be widely discussed in society.

The answer to this question is also difficult to find because there are no clear criteria for the reasonableness of the machine. If this is the ability to make logical conclusions, then the computer has long surpassed man. If we are talking about flexibility and originality of thinking, then a person still surpasses even the most modern intelligent devices.

• And it is actively used in a variety of fields, the list of which is expanding every year, and not only techies, but also humanitarians can find their place in this area
• specialists in project management, advertising and PR, psychologists, economists, linguists.

Modern artificial intelligence technologies allow you to create devices and programs that:

• find the maximum possible solutions to one situation; machine intelligence can quickly analyze all options and calculate which of them will be the cheapest, safest, and most effective. The answers of the machine will depend on what task the person has set for it.For example, an AI can calculate which model or product is more profitable to produce based on data on the cost of consumables and sales volumes.
• they can answer any questions integrated into their system; at the same time, the machine is able not only to find a ready answer in the database, but also to find it with the help of intermediate leading questions, gradually narrowing the search area. The famous online game "Akinator", when a person makes a character, and a machine asks questions and guesses who it is, is also based on artificial intelligence technologies.
• collect and process large amounts of information, analyze it, combine unrelated pieces of information; this is how, for example, the image search system in Yandex or Google works.

Language processing

Machine translation is actively used on the Internet and social networks, improving every year. The computer has learned to recognize both oral, written, and printed speech. According to forecasts, the translator will become one of the first professions that will disappear "through the fault" of АІ.

Computer games

Artificial intelligence is used to create a game universe, it controls bots – characters that people don't play for. Game strategies are created with the help of AI.

Financial management

Programs and devices successfully carry out accounting operations, keep records and control, and can create forecasts based on available data. Special programs keep records of expenses.

Environmental analysis

Artificial intelligence technologies are used to create "smart homes". Control over everything that happens in the house – electricity, heating, ventilation, operation of household appliances is carried out by a special program. Robot vacuum cleaners scan the surrounding space to determine if they need to get to work.

Mobile applications

Programs for mobile phones are able to recognize faces, track our location, monitor sleep and nutrition.

Transport

With the help of intelligent devices, it is possible to build a route of movement taking into account traffic jams, a computer in a modern car in certain modes tracks the position of the car on the road, controls the speed and engine power. AI technology is used in cars that can move without human intervention.

Media

With the help of special programs, you can plan and publish materials on the Internet and social networks. AI technologies select content in accordance with the interests of the user. In the near future, computer programs will probably learn how to create texts based on materials already uploaded to the Internet.

HR

AI can analyze applicants' resumes, divide them into groups depending on skills and qualifications, and even determine how suitable an employee is for a particular position.

Medicine

Artificial intelligence analyzes patient data and identifies the relationship between treatment methods and the patient's condition. In the future, it is planned to create robots that will diagnose based on existing symptoms by accessing a medical database.

Heavy industry

Robots are actively used in areas where constant concentration on performing the same routine actions is necessary. The highest level of introduction of machines with elements of artificial intelligence into production at the moment is noted in Japan: for 10,000 employees of the automotive industry there were about 1,500 robots in 2014.

Perspective

Artificial intelligence is a technology not only of the present, but also of the future, and specialists in this field will have no problems with employment in the next few decades. Huge investments are already being attracted to this area, which means that there will be no problems with the remuneration of employees involved in the development, manufacture and implementation of AI technologies.

Contribution to science and culture

Artificial intelligence and the creation of intelligent programs and devices is an area in which new discoveries are constantly being made. By engaging in artificial intelligence, scientists and engineers are at the forefront of world science, pushing humanity forward. In addition, the development of artificial intelligence and its introduction into our lives generates a lot of ethical and philosophical issues, for the resolution of which we need not a machine, but a human mind capable of creative thinking.

Creation

In the field of AI creation, not only software developers are in great demand, but also people with creative thinking who are able to come up with and promote new ideas. To work in this field, it is important to be able to think outside the box. A separate promising direction that a creative person can take up is teaching a machine to create works of art. Even today, computers draw pictures, write music and poetry. In the near future, perhaps, they will take over the creation of books, movies and cartoons.

Mastering new skills

To work in the field of artificial intelligence, you need a good knowledge of mathematics and the basics of programming. To study AI, two branches of mathematics are most important – linear algebra and probability theory. The most popular programming language in this area is Python, followed by R and Lua. Knowledge of English is also useful – the most up-to-date scientific data, articles, reports on achievements and experiments are usually published in English.

For successful work in the field of AI, critical thinking is necessary, the ability to carefully test any hypothesis, compare all data, analyze any task from different sides. You will also need good communication skills – work on AI projects takes place in a large team, in collaboration with colleagues and specialists from related fields.

Machine learning and artificial intelligence technologies are one of the most interesting and promising areas, the study of which is useful for students not only with a mathematical, but also with a humanitarian mindset. This will help them acquire new skills, expand the list of possible professions and allow them to contribute to the development of scientific and technological progress.

The main task of intelligent data processing is to identify patterns in the processes under study, to search for relationships and mutual influence of various factors, large "unusual" deviations, to predict the course of various significant processes. This area relates to Data Mining.

Data Mining technologies ("data mining") are designed to search for and identify hidden relationships and interdependencies in data in order to provide them to the manager in the decision-making process. To do this, statistical methods of correlation, optimization and others are used to find these dependencies and synthesize deductive (generalizing) information.
