Introduction

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a branch of computer science that aims to create intelligent machines that can perform tasks that typically require human intelligence. These tasks include learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and natural language processing. AI has already had a significant impact on our daily lives, from voice assistants like Siri and Alexa to self-driving cars and personalised advertising.
