What is AI? A MAINTRAIN2023 SNEAK PEEK

It is important to bring AI or Artificial Intelligence closer to our minds. If only we can understand the AI intentions and thinking methodology

It is important to bring AI or Artificial Intelligence closer to our minds. If we can understand
the intentions and thinking methodology of any human, we will be better in dealing with
him/her. This also applies to AI. If we manage to understand the intentions of the AI
–Artificial Intelligence– and how its rational model works, we will accept it, use it for our
own good, and even improve it to be a real ally or a perfect helping hand.
Historically, maintenance evolves as industry evolves. With every Industrial Revolution,
maintenance tools and strategies grow to provide the needed service for this industrial era.
Now what shall we do with Artificial Intelligence, Augmented Reality, and other
technologies introduced by Industry 4.0 in the production environment?
Our perceptions lead to our conceptions. Perception is simply an image we have as a
result of how we see or understand something. Our actions or reactions are based on our
conceptions around the world we live in where AI started to be a vital part of.
Main Topics covered:

  • What is AI?
  • How does the AI Agent work?
  • Areas where AI will transform maintenance
  • Why is it important that the maintenance team understands what AI is?

What is AI?

Artificial intelligence usually refers to the ability of a digital computer or computer-controlled robot to perform tasks commonly associated with intelligent beings. The term is frequently applied to the developing systems endowed with the intellectual processes characteristic of humans, such as the ability to reason, discover meaning, generalize, or learn from experience. This is the definition by Britannica. MIT says that Artificial Intelligence is the ability for computers to imitate cognitive human functions such as learning and problem solving. Through it, a computer system uses math and logic to simulate the reasoning that people use to learn from new information and make decisions. Today, artificial intelligence is everywhere.
