Editing Automation and AI

<big>'''This page has permanently moved to the [https://develop.consumerium.org/wiki/Technology#AI Consumerium.org development wiki]'''</big>

'''AI''' is '''automating''' intelligence requiring tasks. Both automation and AI are driving technological deflation that started when we started using and refining tools. 

Automation and AI are driving various changes in this world for the better and for the worse and this article is intended to chart these impacts as well as charting out the technologies out there.

AI is can be divided to multiple subfields:

* '''[[w:Machine learning]]''' ('''ML''') is the [[w:Branches of science|scientific study]] of [[w:algorithm]]s and [[w:statistical model]]s that [[w:computer systems]] use to effectively perform a specific task without using explicit instructions, relying on patterns and inference instead. ( Wikipedia )
** [[w:Deep learning]]
** [[w:Supervised learning]]
** [[w:Unsupervised learning]]

* '''[[w:Natural language processing]]''' ('''NLP''') is a subfield of [[w:computer science]], [[w:Information engineering (field)|information engineering]], and [[w:artificial intelligence]] concerned with the interactions between computers and human (natural) languages, in particular how to program computers to process and analyze large amounts of [[w:natural language]] data. ( Wikipedia )
** [[w:Information extraction]]
** [[w:Statistical classification]]
** [[w:Machine translation]]
** [[w:Question answering]]
** [[w:Natural-language generation]]

* '''[[w:Expert system]]''' is a computer system that emulates the decision-making ability of a human expert. ( Wikipedia )

* '''[[w:Computer vision]]'''
** [[w:Computer vision#Recognition|Image recognition]]
