AI, IOT AND MACHINE LEARNING BASICS
The 21st century has ushered in a period of unparalleled technological developments, which have radically altered how we live, work, and interact with the environment that surrounds us. Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and Machine Learning (ML) are three revolutionary technologies that are at the heart of this massive upheaval. These technologies are no longer something that will be developed in the future; rather, they are now influencing industries, spurring innovation, and building systems that are smarter and more connected. Since the advent of the digital revolution, the gap between the physical and virtual realities has been crossed. This has made it possible for computers to carry out activities, make judgments, and learn from data with minimum assistance from humans. The Internet of Things (IoT) links common devices to the Internet, artificial intelligence (AI) enables systems to imitate human intellect, and machine learning (ML) enables computers to learn from huge quantities of data to make predictions and improve performance over time. In a society that is becoming more and more dependent on intelligent solutions, understanding these technologies is no longer an option. Artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and machine learning have permeated every facet of contemporary life, from wearable gadgets and smart homes to predictive healthcare and driverless automobiles. What drives me: As will be explained in the chapter, the AI/ML-based Internet of Things systems are making significant contributions to the advancement of all areas of technology and society. As a result, gaining knowledge about these systems, even if it is in a general sense, would be beneficial to our growth even in our specialized areas. Because it has demonstrated its usefulness across all sectors and businesses, the potential that this technological combination possesses is not something that one can either ignore or choose to ignore. It will undoubtedly transform from a talent that can be added to one that is required in the future. In this chapter, you will get an understanding of the most popular 2 | P a g e terminology in the world of technology today, including artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and the Internet of Things (IoT), as well as how these concepts interact with one another. In this course, you will learn about the rapidly expanding field of artificial intelligence-based Internet of Things (IoT) technologies and how these systems are utilized in everyday life to simplify our lives and enrich our experiences. Your perspective will broaden as a result of the numerous applications that will be discussed, particularly about how this technology may be utilized and how you can benefit from it. 1.2 ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE We all now have a general understanding of artificial intelligence and how it works. To summarise the information that was presented in the introduction, artificial intelligence (AI) can be defined as "a vast branch of computer science that endeavors to build smart entities capable of performing intelligent tasks without human intervention." In other words, AI is the simulation of human intelligence in machines, which grants them the capabilities to mimic and behave like humans. These entities are grouped under a single umbrella term known as Intelligent Agents (IA). If an entity can see its surroundings, comprehend it, and act upon it, then that creature is considered an IA. It is possible to perceive it as being composed of three halves. First, there are the Sensors in the system. It is a reference to the portion of the AI that is responsible for assisting it in perceiving stimuli from the outside environment. The Actuators are the second entity in the system. AI can include methods that create the required effects with the assistance of this. The third component of the agent is the Effector, which is utilized by the agent to exert its influence on the surrounding environment. Consequently, we can comprehend the idea of PEAS from this. Performance Measurement, Environment, Actuator, and Sensor are the components that make up PEAS. Using PEAS, we can gain a more in-depth understanding of Intelligent Agents, which in turn helps us develop more effective Rational Agents. A performance metric is a judgment of how well something is performing. Environment is a term that relates to the surrounding environment, which includes the entities that are doing the act. Actuators are the components or instruments that are essential to the operation of the mechanism
