Abstract

In this article author explores modern approaches for building of intelligent computational applications, which are learn by experience. Different definitions of explanation of intelligence are analyzed in context of human and in context of machine. A brief history of computational technics is illustrated, as well as a history of thoughts about artificial intelligent machines. The most fundamental science fields which influence the development of artificial intelligence are defined. The history of artificial intelligence becoming a field of knowledge is described. The reasons why the first wave of development of artificial intelligence did not live up to the expectations are listed. The key factors why today artificial intelligence is more real are explained. The theory of «Algorithm of God» by Pedro Domingos according to which there’s no physical reasons why strong artificial intelligence is impossible is described. The arguments how artificial intelligence is possible also provided by Domingos. The relation between artificial intelligence and machine learning is explained. Analyzed philosophical effects of usage of such approachs on given stage of development of science and technology, philosophical implications of usage of such technologies are predicted.The relation between deduction and induction is explained as well as the difference between deterministic applications and artificial intelligence
