It’s no coincidence that many programs using artificial intelligence techniques are open source and thus completely free. This is because the early approaches originated in academia, where free licences for software are common practice in order to promote collaboration and further development. Here, however, it is not about frameworks and libraries for forms of AI, but about tangible and useful applications of artificial intelligence for your own computer. The term AI encompasses various methods such as neural networks, machine learning, deep learning, or natural language processing. In the following compilation, all these approaches are represented.

The availability of this data is one of the reasons why useful AI techniques are available in freely available software today at all. Models generally take years to develop, and there are often terabytes of raw data to evaluate. But with the increasing computing power of common PC hardware, the development of AI models and the analysis of training data has accelerated in recent years, making it possible for smaller research teams. The following compilation is about the practical benefits, i.e. the implementation of methods primarily in free software for Windows, which show well how... Continue reading at 'PC World'
