My ondest childhood memories are those in which my ather, who ha!!ens to be working in the ield o A#, taught me how to !rogram Robots. #*d sit trans i%ed as my ather would e%!lain me these wonder ully com!le% conce!ts o A#. Countless .cience iction novels and movies later, it was time to go or an /ndergraduate degree in Com!uting .cience.
$as # ever more sur!rised 0 A ter taking s!eciali1ed courses on #ntelligent .ystems, Machine 2earning, etc. # ound out that the reality was vastly di erent rom the !ortrayal in those sci3 i novels. #t would take at least my li etime or the machines to be able to attain the kind o com!le%ity that was !ortrayed in those novels. ,owever # still loved what # learnt about A#. # am ascinated by this ield knowing we have made a gigantic lea! in our ability to solve decision making !roblems. Researchers are o the o!inion that in the uture A# will change the
: very way we think. "his !romises lots o o!!ortunities or young !eo!le to make a mark in this ield. Another ascinating as!ect o it is that one is not bound to work in only a ew selected ields in order to a!!ly the !rinci!les o A#. 4rom launching o .atellites to directing Air "ra ic, .!eech Recognition, 4acial Recognition, Military A!!lications, 5io3Medical #maging to machines o everyday use like Cars, $ashing Machines, re rigerators etc. A# has become all !ervasive in our lives, and is hel!ing us make more accurate !redictions and better decisions. .ince 6anuary *)+, #*ve been working on a !ro7ect that involves a!!lying Machine 2earning Algorithms to detect 5rain tumors and to !redict their growth !attern. 8ur !rototy!e a!!lication has !roved to be e%tremely success ul in detecting malignant tumors. #ts ca!ability to !redict tumor growth behaviors can never be matched by humans. #t*s use has allowed the !hysicians to treat more !atients at a reduced cost. "he !atients too bene it rom this technology. 9%tremely accurate results rom the !rogram regarding the location o the tumor allow the radiothera!ists to !recisely target the cancer cells with radiation, while s!aring the healthy tissues. Do # love all this- # have no doubt about that, whatsoever. #t gives me a great sense o satis action and !ride that # can contribute in some small way towards the cure o countless men, women and children who su er rom this dread ul disease.
$hat does the uture hold or A# - #n the last ew years researchers have success ully develo!ed Com!uter !rograms that are ca!able o writing more com!le% !rograms. "his has uelled the idea o humans being able to develo! Arti icially #ntelligent !rograms which will then be able to develo! more so!histicated and com!le% !rograms o their own kind. "his task is by no means easy, however i we were to achieve this eat we would !robably be the only s!ecies to success ully create a more #ntelligent s!ecies than themselves. $ill
< that not elevate our status to that o Demigods, at least in the eyes o those thinking machines Most o the ramework or A# was designed on the !attern o the workings o the human brain. #t turns out that we are now able to understand the human brain much better by looking at the techni;ues by which these Arti icially #ntelligent machines learn rom their environment and re!rogram themselves. #t is as e%citing as teaching a baby to learn new things. Do # need to !ut orth any more reasons or choosing to do research in A#, as my uture career -
