A beginner's guide to AI: The difference between human and machine intelligence

This multi-part feature should provide you with a very basic understanding of what AI is, what it can do, and how it works. The guide contains articles on (in order published) neural networks, computer vision, natural language processing, algorithms, artificial general intelligence, and the difference between video game AI and real AI. As legend has it, a reporter once asked Mahatma Ghandi what he thought of Western Civilization. His response was "I think it would be a good idea." The same sentiment could be applied to artificial intelligence if you compare it directly to human intelligence.
