Questions

  1. What does AI stand for?

    1. Automated Input
    2. Artificial Intelligence
    3. Advanced Integration
    4. Automated Interface
    Show answer

    Answer: Artificial Intelligence

    AI stands for Artificial Intelligence, referring to computer systems that simulate human-like intelligence.

  2. Which of the following best describes training data in machine learning?

    1. The physical hardware a computer uses
    2. Examples used to teach an AI model to recognize patterns
    3. The code a programmer writes to control a robot
    4. A list of rules the computer must follow
    Show answer

    Answer: Examples used to teach an AI model to recognize patterns

    Training data is the collection of examples fed to a machine learning model so it can detect patterns and make future predictions.

  3. A voice assistant like Siri uses which branch of AI to understand spoken words?

    1. Robotics
    2. Machine vision
    3. Natural language processing
    4. Data encryption
    Show answer

    Answer: Natural language processing

    Natural Language Processing (NLP) enables computers to understand spoken and written human language, powering voice assistants.

  4. Which of these is NOT an example of AI in everyday life?

    1. A spam email filter
    2. A navigation app predicting traffic
    3. A printed calendar on the wall
    4. A facial recognition phone unlock
    Show answer

    Answer: A printed calendar on the wall

    A printed wall calendar is a static paper tool, not an AI system. The others all use AI to process data and make decisions.

  5. Why can AI systems sometimes produce biased results?

    1. Because computers do not have electricity
    2. Because the training data used was incomplete or unrepresentative
    3. Because algorithms are always random
    4. Because AI cannot process numbers
    Show answer

    Answer: Because the training data used was incomplete or unrepresentative

    Bias in AI often originates in the training data — if certain groups are underrepresented or misrepresented, the model learns those skewed patterns.

  6. Machine learning allows computers to improve at a task by learning from data rather than being programmed with exact rules.

    Show answer

    Answer: True

    This is the core idea of machine learning: systems improve through exposure to data rather than through explicit rule programming.

  7. What is an algorithm?

    1. A type of computer memory
    2. A step-by-step set of instructions for solving a problem
    3. A physical circuit inside a chip
    4. A database of images
    Show answer

    Answer: A step-by-step set of instructions for solving a problem

    An algorithm is a precise, ordered set of steps that a computer follows to complete a task or solve a problem.

  8. A system that suggests movies or songs based on your past preferences is called a ______ system.

    Show answer

    Answer: recommendation

    Recommendation systems analyze user history and preferences to suggest relevant content, used by platforms like Netflix and Spotify.
