Seminar paper from the year 2019 in the subject Computer Sciences - Artificial Intelligence, grade: 2,0, University of the Federal Armed Forces München, language: English, abstract: AI is taking on more and more tasks in the everyday world. Talking devices and digital assistants, such as Amazon's Alexa or Apple's Siri give consumers easy access to various forms of AI in order to simplify their everyday lives. The distinction between digital chatbots and people are also getting increasingly more difficult. In this paper, the focus will be on the positive reinforcement of society, for the simple reason that writing about the drawbacks as well, will extend the length of this paper beyond the given guidelines. By way of example, which regulations are needed to ensure the protection of the public and fairness in economic competition and how will employment rates be influenced? Likewise, the history of the development of AI will be left out for the same reason. Initially, the author will present definitions of intelligence and a description of AI and its abilities. The subsequent description of functions and various forms of AI are intended to give an overview of the potential of AI. A Practical example of the implementation of AI in the Road transport sector, as well as a conclusion, are bringing the paper to a close.
