Hello world! I'm Matthew, an AI researcher,
software engineer, and data scientist.

What is AI?

"Artificial Intelligence (AI) is usually understood to be the branch of computer science that deals with creating tools for jobs usually considered to need considerable human intelligence." (Antoni Niederlinski)

"Artificial intelligence is the field that studies the synthesis and analysis of computational agents that act intelligently. ... The central engineering goal of AI is the design and synthesis of useful, intelligent artifacts. We actually want to build agents that act intelligently. Such agents are useful in many applications." (David Poole)

"The aim of artificial intelligence is to provide a computational model of intelligent behavior." (Judea Pearl, 1988)
