AI for Kids Worksheet: What Is AI

AI for students lesson 1: What is AI? · Set 81 · 40 questions

AI tip (Learns or follows?): AI learns patterns from examples, makes a best guess and can handle examples it has never seen — but its guess can be wrong. A normal program follows fixed rules people wrote and does exactly as coded; it never learns from data. Ask: does this job need learning from many examples (recognising a face), or does one exact rule always work (adding marks)?

1. 1.Which of these describes how a normal program works? (a) handles unseen examples (b) improves with more data (c) learns from examples (d) one set rule per case
