Direct Question:
1. What do you understand by linguistic Intelligence?
Linguistic intelligence means intelligence to understand and interpret human natural
language and try to extract meaning out of it.
OR
Linguistic Intelligence refers to the ability of an individual to understand both written
and spoken language and the additional ability to write and speak the language too.
OR
This is the intelligence of language and communication. It includes the ability to speak,
articulate, and express, and convey one’s thoughts and feelings to the outside world in
one or more languages. This can be at an oral and written level. It also includes the
ability to listen to and to understand other people.
3. Mention four examples of machines that are not AI but confused with AI.
Or
Mention four examples of machines that are smart but not AI.
Automatic gates in shopping malls / remote control drones/ a fully automatic washing
machine/ Air Conditioner/ Refrigerator/ Robotic toy cars/ Television etc.
1. What is Intelligence? Explain in brief any three types of intelligence that are
mainly perceived by human beings?
Intelligence is the ‘ability to perceive or infer information, and to retain it as knowledge
to be applied towards adaptive behavior within an environment or context.’
OR
Intelligence is the ability to interact with the world (speech, vision, motion,
manipulation), ability to model the world and to reason about it, ability to learn, ability
to make decisions and to adapt.
OR
Intelligence has been defined in many ways: It involves abstract reasoning, mental
representation, problem solving, and decision making, the ability to learn, emotional
knowledge, creativity, and adaptation to meet the demands of the environment
effectively.
2. Differentiate between what is AI and what is not AI with the help of an example?
AI Machine Not AI machine
1. AI machines are trained with data 1. Smart machines which are not AI, do

3. AI machines can analyses the the same level of efficiency, which is
situation and can take decisions programmed into them.
While we see a lot of AI applications around us, there still exist a lot of them which are
smart but not intelligent.
An AI enabled machine should not only recognize, but should also do something with
its gathered information. Artificial intelligence” must mean a human-made interface
with the power to reason and integrate knowledge. AI must demonstrate at least some
of the following behaviors associated with human intelligence: planning, learning,
reasoning, problem solving, knowledge representation, perception, motion,
manipulation and, to a lesser extent, social intelligence, and creativity.
Most IOT items are ordinary things outfitted with sensors and connected to the
Internet. For example, sensors in your office can recognize shadows or movements,
but that doesn’t make them an example of artificial intelligence. A fully automatic
washing machine can work on its own, but it requires human intervention to select the
parameters of washing and to do the necessary preparation for it to function correctly
before each wash, which makes it an example of automation, not AI.
3. How can AI be integrated with non-AI technologies? Explain with the help of an
example.
Today’s world is changing with the adoption of IOT (Internet of Things). IOT is helping
in prominently capturing a tremendous amount of data from multiple sources. The
convergence of AI (Artificial Intelligence) and IOT can redefine the way industries,
business, and economies function. AI enabled IoT creates intelligent machines that
simulate smart behavior and supports decision making with little or no human
interference.
While IOT provides data, artificial intelligence acquires the power to unlock responses,
offering both creativity and context to drive smart actions. Here are some examples:
Ex. 1: Self-driving Cars: Tesla’s self-driving cars are the best example of IoT and AI
working together. With the power of AI, self-driving cars predict the behavior
of pedestrians and cards in various circumstances. For example, they can
determine road conditions, optimal speed, weather and getting smarter with
each trip.
Ex. 2: Robots in Manufacturing: Manufacturing is one of the industries that already
embraced new technologies like IoT, artificial intelligence, facial recognition,
deep learning, Robots and many more. Robots employed in factories are
turning smarter with the support of implanted sensors, which facilitates data
transmission. Moreover, as the robots are provisioned with artificial
intelligence algorithms, they can learn from newer data. This approach not only
saves time and cost but also makes the manufacturing process better over time.

4. Read the given scenario and answer the questions that follow:
A farmer keeps rabbits in three large hutches that stand in a row in his backyard.
Each of the hutches is painted different colors – red, yellow and green. Until
recently, the number of rabbits in the green hutch was twice as large as the
number of rabbits in the yellow hutch. Then, one day, the farmer took five rabbits
out of the left-side hutch and gave them away to the local school’s pet corner. He
also took half of the rabbits that remained in the left-side hutch and moved them
to the red hutch.
a. What was the color of the left-side hutch? Justify your answer with
explanation.
The answer is yellow.
Explanation: As we already know at the outset the number of rabbits in the
green hutch was twice as large as the number of rabbits in the yellow hutch. This
means that the number of rabbits in the green hutch was an even number. After the
farmer removed five rabbits from the left side hutch, then the number of rabbits that
remained there also became an even number. This is proven by the fact that it was
divisible by 2. Therefore, before those five were removed, the left side hutch contained
an uneven number of rabbits hence the left side hutch cannot be the green one, but
based on the given information, it cannot be the red one. Hence it is yellow.
5. A scenario is given to you below. Read it and answer the questions that follow:
Late one night, a car ran over a pedestrian in a narrow by street and drove away
without stopping. A policeman who saw the vehicle leave the scene of the accident
reported it moving at very high speed. The accident itself was witnessed by six
bystanders. They provided the following conflicting accounts of what had
happened:
- It was a blue car driven by a man;
- The car was moving at high speed and its headlights were turned off;
- The car did have license plates; it wasn’t going very fast;
- It was a Toyota and its headlights were turned off;
- The car didn’t have license plates; the driver was a woman;
- It was a grey Ford.
When the car and its driver were finally apprehended, it turned out that only one
of the six eyewitnesses gave a fully correct description. Each of the other five
provided one true and one false piece of information. Keeping that in mind, can
you determine the following?
Explanation: Out of the statements of 6 bystanders, the third statement becomes false
as the policeman who saw the vehicle leave the scene of the accident reported it
moving at very high speed. Then eliminating all false statements of bystanders, the
above results can be extracted.
6. A firefighter has to get to a burning building as quickly as he can. There are three
paths that he can take. He can take his fire engine over a large hill (5 miles) at 8
miles per hour. He can take his fire engine through a windy road (7 miles) at 9
miles per hour. Or he can drive his fire engine along a dirt road which is 8 miles at
12 miles per hour. Which way should he choose? (speed=distance/time)
To reach the destination quickly, the fire fighter has to calculate the time required on
the basis of given data. Driving his fire engine 5 miles at 8 miles per hour takes 37.5
minutes. Driving his fire engine 7 miles at 9 miles per hour takes about 47 minutes.
Driving his fire engine 8 miles at 12 miles per hour takes 40 minutes so he should
choose to drive his fire engine over the hill.)
7. A thief has just found a pair of ancient treasure caves. One of the caves is filled
with unbelievable treasure and the other has a fire breathing monster that will
eat anyone who opens that cave. One cave has a black door decorated with
diamonds and the other cave has a brown door decorated with sapphires. Each of
the doors has an engraved description on top. The descriptions say:
a. Black Door: Monster is here.
b. Brown Door: Only One Door speaks the truth.
Which door should the thief open?
The treasure is in the Black door.
Explanation: Let us look at the description on the Brown door. It can be correct or
wrong.
Scenario 1: The description on the Brown door is true. Then the description on the
Black door has to be false. That means that the inscription on the Black door is false
and the cave with black door contains the treasure!
Scenario 2: The description on the Brown door is false. Then either both the
descriptions are false or both are true. Both cannot be true as that is impossible and
not consistent. That means that both descriptions are false.
