C. AI in use today

D. AI in education
2.Read the text and choose the main idea.
In 2000, Asimo, a robot created by Honda amazed everyone by just walking down the
stairs. Twenty years later, a robot named Sophia can even communicate with people by
using human language and expressing emotions.
However, robots are just one example of Artificial Intelligence (AI) – the study and
development of machines that can copy human intelligence. Nowadays, AI has bene
applied to various areas of life.
At home, devices such as vacuum cleaners can now use AI to measure the room size and
recognize any furniture. They can then decide on the most effective way to clean the house.
In transport, AI can be used on many smartphones to collect information about traffic. This
can then help drivers find the most suitable route. Travelling has become much more
convenient thanks to AI.
At work, the uses of AI are even more useful and exciting. Computer programmes, such as
software or chatbots, can help customers plan their holidays, book flights and hotels, and
answer questions.
AI is one of the most important inventions of the 21st century. It has completely changed our
daily work and life.
