In 1956, when John McCarthy held the first academic session on the particular topic, the term artificial intelligence was introduced and made open to the audience as a technological innovation for an enterprise-level transformation. But the path to understanding whether machines can really think in a human way started long before that. Artificial Intelligence or AI can be defined as a machine, robot, or a product and service strategy to determine how people can think and act logically in a given situation. AI is a study of how human brain thinks, learns, decides, and works, when trying to resolve ensuing problems. And eventually, the study of AI has created intelligent software systems. Artificial intelligence carries a goal in mind to improve processes related to human knowledge, such as learning, reasoning and above all, problem-solving. It is a widely accepted and age-old proven truth that the very word viz., intelligence is intangible by nature. It comprises of learning, reasoning, perceiving, problem-solving and of course, assimilates the element of linguistic intelligence. Similarly, the functional realm of artificial intelligence revolves around reasoning, knowledge representation, learning, planning, realizing, processing of natural language and the freedom to move and manipulate objects. The general intelligence sector has long-term intentions.Show book
A Muslim environmentalist explores the fascinating intersection of environmentalism and Islam. Muslims are compelled by their religion to praise the Creator and to care for their community. But what is not widely known is that there are deep and long-standing connections between Islamic teachings and environmentalism. In this groundbreaking book, Ibrahim Abdul-Matin draws on research, scripture, and interviews with Muslim Americans to trace Islam’s preoccupation with humankind’s collective role as stewards of the Earth. Abdul-Matin points out that the Prophet Muhammad declared “the Earth is a mosque.” Using the concept of Deen, which means “path” or “way” in Arabic, Abdul-Matin offers dozens of examples of how Muslims can follow, and already are following, a Green Deen in four areas: “waste, watts (energy), water, and food.”Show book
This book is a primer on the philosophy of stoicism, resurrected from its origins in Greek and Roman philosophy. The original philosophy was based on a reasoning process which it was assumed would lead to a virtuous life. Zeno, the founder of stoicism, did not begin expounding on its teachings until he was in his forties. He believed that the purpose of life was "to live consistently." Cleanthes, his disciple, added "with nature," so that the purpose of life became "to live consistently with nature." - Summary by Bill BoerstShow book
