Mel Siegel, LightPath founding board member and Professor Emeritus of Robotics presents a brief introduction to artificial intelligence (AI), especially but not only in its role as the essential enabling technology for robots and their practical applications. Topics covered in this video include the characteristics of intelligence, why the world generally and robotics specifically need AI, a little about robotics, a little about how the complexity of the real world makes AI a necessity, some practical approaches to building AI systems, and several examples of real-world systems whose knock-your-socks-off performance would be impossible without AI.
