Unit 1: Introduction to Artificial Intelligence

Foundations of Data Science, Computer Vision, and NLP

1. Understanding the 3 Domains of AI

Artificial Intelligence is not a single technology. In the CBSE Class 9 syllabus, it is divided into three core domains based on the type of data the machine processes:

📊 Data Science (DS)

Processing and analyzing massive amounts of numeric data to find patterns.

Daily Life: Price comparisons on Amazon or Weather forecasts on your phone.

👁️ Computer Vision (CV)

Enabling machines to identify and process images and videos like human eyes.

Daily Life: Face Unlock on smartphones or QR code scanning.

🗣️ Natural Language Processing (NLP)

The ability of a computer to understand, interpret, and generate human language.

Daily Life: Auto-correct in WhatsApp or voice commands to Alexa/Siri.

2. AI vs Rule-Based Systems

A "Rule-Based" system follows a fixed set of instructions (If-Then). AI, however, uses Machine Learning to improve its performance as it gets more data.

Task: Play the game and note down how "Data Bias" affected the hiring process.

3. AI & Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

AI is a powerful tool to achieve the 17 Global Goals set by the UN. For example:

  • Goal 4 (Quality Education): AI-powered personalized learning apps.
  • Goal 13 (Climate Action): Using Computer Vision to track melting glaciers.
