Digitalization is sweeping our lives, driven by the power of artificial intelligence (AI) techniques. Search engine operators, social network operators, and shipping platform operators are gaining unprecedented insights into our preferences, shopping habits, and living patterns. User data has become a precious commodity, shaping the way we interact with computer systems that exhibit intelligence or even surpass human intelligence. Thought-provoking questions such as "Can machines be intelligent?" and "Can they possess emotions or consciousness?" continue to captivate our minds.

To provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of these topics, the authors delve into the intricacies of AI, elucidating individual techniques and methods in a clear and accessible manner. They draw parallels between AI approaches and philosophical, artistic, and neurobiological perspectives, shedding light on the underlying principles of logical reasoning, knowledge, and memory. Machine learning and artificial neural networks play pivotal roles, but so too do concepts such as logical reasoning, knowledge, and memory.

At the heart of this exploration lies the question of what constitutes memory and thinking, and how our emotions shape our experiences as humans navigate life and the world. This book offers unique perspectives on AI, challenging our preconceptions and prompting us to reevaluate our relationship with these intelligent systems. It serves as a valuable resource for anyone seeking to gain a deeper understanding of the rapidly evolving field of AI and its potential implications for our future.
