What is AI?
6+
Simply put, AI is software that imitates human behaviors and capabilities. Key workloads include:
7+
8+
Machine learning - This is often the foundation for an AI system, and is the way we "teach" a computer model to make predictions and draw conclusions from data.
9+
Computer vision - Capabilities within AI to interpret the world visually through cameras, video, and images.
10+
Natural language processing - Capabilities within AI for a computer to interpret written or spoken language, and respond in kind.
11+
Document intelligence - Capabilities within AI that deal with managing, processing, and using high volumes of data found in forms and documents.
12+
Knowledge mining - Capabilities within AI to extract information from large volumes of often unstructured data to create a searchable knowledge store.
13+
Generative AI - Capabilities within AI that create original content in a variety of formats including natural language, image, code, and more.

# Understand generative AI
2+
3+
Generative AI describes a category of capabilities within AI that create original content. People typically interact with generative AI that has been built into chat applications. Generative AI applications take in natural language input, and return appropriate responses in a variety of formats including natural language, image, code, and audio.

# Natural language processing (NLP)
2+
3+
NLP enables you to create software that can:
4+
5+
Analyze and interpret text in documents, email messages, and other sources.
6+
Interpret spoken language, and synthesize speech responses.
7+
Automatically translate spoken or written phrases between languages.
8+
Interpret commands and determine appropriate actions.
9+
For example, Starship Commander is a virtual reality (VR) game from Human Interact that takes place in a science fiction world. The game uses natural language processing to enable players to control the narrative and interact with in-game characters and starship systems.
