Abstract

AI is one of the fastest growing scientific and technical disciplines in history. In this chapter, it is attempted to show why by giving an overview about definitions of AI, areas of research, basic paradigms, applications with special emphasis on the new case-based reasoning (CBR) systems, impacts, and visions. An extensive list of references enables to delve deeper in areas of special interest.
