2 - Part 3 : Ok, So What is AI?

We've talked about the definitions of AI and how to test for it, but what does that all mean?

We discuss AI as a research field, give some of the history and walk through the different disciplines and applications of AI.

Sadly, a lot of the internet is equating 'AI' and 'ChatGPT' which is very, very wrong. AI is a huge interdisciplinary field of research and by understanding that at a high level will really help you understand how the current applications have emerged and also give insight into the many applications of AI that already exist today.

The prompts in the video help, but this is also another one you can simply listen to.
