Artificial Intelligence

From Wikipedia: Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence demonstrated by machines, as opposed to the natural intelligence displayed by animals including humans. Leading AI textbooks define the field as the study of "intelligent agents": any system that perceives its environment and takes actions that maximize its chance of achieving its goals. Some popular accounts use the term "artificial intelligence" to describe machines that mimic "cognitive" functions that humans associate with the human mind, such as "learning" and "problem solving", however this definition is rejected by major AI researchers.

Jan is the brother of Club President Ben Wolber. He lives in England and will join us via Zoom.

Park at Al’s and clean up crews will start at each end of the trail. 9:00am start and after finishing we will regroup at Panera’s for refreshments and fellowship afterward.
