Which one of the following best defines the term heuristics?

• An approach that gives an acceptable but imperfect solution to a complex problem

• A combination of commands directed towards completing a specific task

• An approach that compares two possible solutions to see which one works better

• An approach to study the output and back calculate the process

Answer explanation

Heuristics as an AI principle provides an approximate, acceptable solution to a complex problem.

Which category of AI can learn from human inputs and apply it in real-time problems?

• Artificial narrow intelligence

• Artificial quasi intelligence

• Artificial general intelligence

• Artificial superintelligence

Answer explanation

Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) powered systems have the capability of learning from Inputs and applying the same in real-time situations or problems.

Which one of the following has the capability to learn by experience and not programming?

• Deep learning

• Neural network

• Machine learning

Answer explanation

Machine learning provides a system with the ability to learn by experience and not programming.

Which AI technique learns from its own outputs and changes parameters accordingly to provide more accurate responses?

• Backpropagation

• Error-driven learning

• Neural network

• Deep learning

Answer explanation

Backpropagation feeds information about errors back into the system so that parameters, or characteristics can be changed to make better decisions in the future.

What is soft/logical decision making in artificial intelligence?

• A technique to administer pre-programmed service robots

• A technique of information processing to help humans take decisions

• A technique of information processing to provide tangible outputs

Answer explanation

Soft/logical decision making is an assistance system to help humans take decisions. It provides effective insights analyzing useful information.

• Fuzzy logic

• Image recognition

Answer explanation

NLP can be used to help users choose better words, grammar, and sentence structure.

Road monitoring is a common feature used in autonomous cars. It is an application of which AI component?

• Natural language processing

• Data mining

• Fuzzy logic

• Image recognition

Answer explanation

Road monitoring is an application of image recognition that monitors the environment in which the car is traveling.

What are some ethical considerations regarding AI development? (Select more than one option.)

• The purpose of AI development needs to be clear from the beginning.

• The cost of the development process needs to be determined at the outset.

• Developers need to restrict stakeholder access to development information until it’s complete.

• Developers need to be deployed to a secret location for security purposes.

• Developers should be competent before starting AI development.

Answer explanation

Some of the ethical considerations regarding AI development are clear purpose, transparency, and competency of the developers as well the non-technical workers.
