Chapter 1. The Rise of Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence, or AI, has been a hot topic in recent years as advancements in technology have allowed for the development of increasingly sophisticated AI systems. From self-driving cars to virtual assistants like Siri and Alexa, AI is becoming increasingly integrated into our everyday lives.
One of the key drivers of the rise of AI is the exponential growth of data. With the proliferation of smartphones, social media, and the Internet of Things, we are generating more data than ever before. AI systems can analyze and make sense of this vast amount of data much more quickly and accurately than humans, leading to insights and discoveries that were previously impossible.
Another factor driving the rise of AI is the increasing processing power of computers. The development of powerful GPUs and cloud computing has enabled AI researchers to train complex neural networks and algorithms more efficiently, leading to significant advances in AI capabilities.
