Artificial Intelligence

Multiple Intelligences


The theory of multiple intelligences was proposed by Howard Gardner, a developmental psychologist from Harvard.
This theory differentiates intelligence into specific "modalities" rather than a single ability.
These intelligence modalities are musical-rhythmic, visual-spatial, verbal-linguistic, logical-mathematical,
bodily-kinesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal,
and naturalistic.

Alan Turing


Alan Turing is widely considered to be the father of artificial intelligence. He is also very influential in the field of computer science in general.
Turing invented the Turing machine, a hypothetical device that explains the limits of mechanical computation, and the Turing test, a test of a machine's
ability to think like a human. In addition, his work in Bletchley Park cracking German ciphers greatly contributed to the Nazis' defeat in World War II.

AI Games

In Week 7, we continued with Python and created a Rock Paper Scissors game.

Then, we modified the code to include functions:

We also used functions to create a number guessing game.

Then, we attempted to make a Hangman game, but there were lots of errors popping up while trying out the code:


Eventually I fixed my code and created a working Hangman game.

Later, we started work on Tic-Tac-Toe. I expanded this to a 4-in-a-row game, and while winning isn't exactly possible, it was still a fun experiment to try.
