Chapter 12: Convergence with Artificial Intelligence and Other Related Concepts

As a driver, have you experienced an intersection with a long line of cars on one road and few cars on the other and thought that this situation could be improved by adjusting the timing of the traffic signals? As a student, have you experienced a course with learning materials that were too hard or too easy and hoped that the instructor would provide the appropriate learning materials to maximize your learning output? For these real-life problems that need personalized solutions, artificial intelligence (AI), an area of computer science that emphasizes the creation of intelligent machines that work and react like humans, can potentially help. AI consists of various information techniques that enable computers to perform intelligent tasks.
