Artificial Intelligence

Introduction

Artificial Intelligence is a broad field focused on building computational systems that perform tasks commonly associated with human intelligence. The course examines how AI differs from traditional software through data-driven behavior, adaptability, and decision-making under uncertainty. Core concepts are illustrated through real-world intelligent systems used in science, industry, and society. The material establishes a foundation for understanding how AI systems perceive information, represent knowledge, reason about actions, and improve performance through learning mechanisms.
