Why Artificial intelligence

AI is an area of computer science dedicated to creating software that can be taught to perform complex procedures. What makes AI “intelligent” is that it can learn new behaviours, improve performance as more experience is gained, and make decisions and predictions based on available data. The algorithms at the core of some AI systems are trained using the large datasets that are now available thanks to the “big data” revolution. It is the intelligent capabilities of AI systems that allow for the automation of tasks that until now required human judgement to deliver. There is enormous potential for how AI can benefit the developing world and what it can contribute towards achieving the UN’s Sustainable Development
