practice, AI learns from data. For example, a music app can suggest songs based on
what you’ve listened to before.
2. Understanding Speech and Text (Natural Language Processing) – AI can
understand and respond to human language, which is how virtual assistants like Siri
and Alexa work.
3. Recognizing Images and Faces (Computer Vision) – AI can "see" and understand
pictures, helping cameras recognize faces or apps identify objects in photos.
4. Solving Problems (Expert Systems) – AI can make decisions like a human expert,
such as diagnosing diseases in healthcare or recommending financial investments.
5. Robots and Automation – AI helps robots perform tasks like driving cars, assisting
in surgeries, or even cleaning floors with smart vacuum cleaners.
6. Smart Decision-Making – AI can predict outcomes and make choices, such as
suggesting the fastest route on Google Maps or detecting fraud in banking
transactions.
7. Ethics and Responsibility – Since AI is making important decisions, we need to
make sure it’s fair, unbiased, and respects privacy.
