CONTENT OF THE LESSON

LESSON 1 – INTRODUCTION AND MEANING OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) 

Artificial intelligence, or AI, is like having a smart robot or computer program that can think and learn just like a human. It’s a way to make machines do tasks that would normally require human intelligence, such as recognizing faces, playing games, and understanding speech.

AI uses algorithms, which are like sets of instructions, to process information, learn from data, and make decisions. It’s a super cool technology that is used in things like self-driving cars, voice assistants, and even predicting the weather.

Just like how we learn and adapt to new information, AI can do the same but at a much faster pace. So, in simple terms, artificial intelligence is about giving machines the ability to think and learn like humans do.

 

TYPES OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) 

There are different types of artificial intelligence.

1. Narrow AI

2. General AI

3. Super AI

4. Reactive Machines

5. Limited Memory AI

6. Theory of Mind

7. Self-Aware AI

The above can be classified as types of AI based on capabilities and types of AI based on functionality.

HOMEWORK – Find out the meaning of different types of artificial intelligence (AI) listed in above.

 

LESSON 2 – TYPES OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) BASED ON CAPABILITIES 

1. NARROW AI

Narrow Artificial Intelligence (Ai) is also known as Weak AI. This type of artificial intelligence is designed for a specific task or a narrow range of tasks. For example – Facial Recognition software used in security systems, Voice Assistants like Siri or Alexa that understand specific commands, recommendation engines used by platforms like Netflix or Amazon, Email Spam Filters, Chatbots, Language Translation Services, Fraud Detection Systems, etc.

 

2. GENERAL AI

General Artificial Intelligence (AI) is also known as Strong AI. This type of artificial intelligence has the ability to understand, learn, and perform various tasks. This kind of artificial intelligence is similar to human intelligence. For examples – Self-Driving Cars, Autopilot, Medical Diagnostic Tools, Google Map, etc.

 

3. SUPERINTELLIGENCE OR SUPER AI

Superintelligence is an Artificial Intelligence (AI) that more than human intelligence and capabilities in every way. That’s, it surpasses intelligence of human in solving-problem, creativity, and overall abilities.

 

TYPES OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE BASED ON FUNCTIONALITIES 

1. REACTIVE MACHINES 

Reactive machines are Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems that can only react to specific situations based on predefined rules and inputs. These machines operate basically on the present data. They do not store any past experiences or learn from previous actions. These systems can only respond to specific inputs with fixed outputs and are unable to adapt.

 

2. THEORY OF MIND AI

Theory of Mind AI is an Artificial Intelligence that can understand and predict human behaviors, emotions, and intentions. The aims of this artificial Intelligence to understand human emotions, beliefs, intentions, and desires. In order words, it possesses human-like consciousness, emotions, and self-awareness.

 

3. SELF-AWARE AI

Self Aware AI is an Artificial Intelligence that has consciousness and can understand its own existence and emotions. This type of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the ability to not only understand and react to emotions but also has its own consciousness, similar to human awareness.

 

4. AUTONOMOUS AI

Autonomous Artificial Intelligence (AI) is an Artificial Intelligence that can operate independently without human intervention, such as self-driving cars or drones. It can learn from past data to improve future responses. This type of Artificial Intelligence is also known as Limited Memory AI.

HOMEWORK – Find out the importance of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

 

LESSON 3 – REVISION AND WEEKLY ASSESSMENT/ASSIGNMENT 

As stated in the performance objectives or lesson evaluation.

 

PRESENTATION

To deliver the lesson, the teacher adopts the following steps:

1. To introduce the lesson, the teacher revises the previous lesson by asking relevant questions based on what has been taught or learnt.

2. Teacher organizes the pupils into two or more groups depending on the size of the class.

3. Teacher displays charts showing some of the most commonly Artificial Intelligence (AI) devices used in education, transportation, healthcare, shopping mall, etc.

4. Teacher lets the pupils to identify and describe the uses of each device.

Pupil’s Activities – The pupils identify and describe the uses of each device.

5. Teacher uses the charts and the pupils relevant responses to introduce the lesson, guides and leads class discussion on the meaning of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Pupil’s Activities – The pupils pay attention to the lesson introduction, understand and define the meaning of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

6. Teacher explains in details different types of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Pupil’s Activities – The pupils listen attentively to the teacher’s explain to understand different types of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and to differentiate between them.

7. Teacher summarizes the lesson on the board with appropriate evaluation.

Pupil’s Activities – The pupils participate actively in the summary of the lesson by responding correctly to most of the questions write as instructed.

 

CONCLUSION

To conclude the lesson for the week, the teacher revises the entire lesson and links it to the following week’s lesson.
