The difference between automation and artificial intelligence

Automation is a basic subject, and artificial intelligence technology is one of its branches. \x0d\ Automation is defined as the most advanced mechanization and electrification in the vernacular, that is, all machines, equipment and instruments can be automatically produced according to the specified requirements and established procedures, and people only need to determine the control requirements and procedures without direct operation. \x0d\ Artificial intelligence is an information process that simulates people's consciousness and thinking, that is, it operates automatically according to people's thinking. Artificial intelligence is not human intelligence, but it can think like human beings, or it may exceed human intelligence. \x0d\: \ x0d \ Automation belongs to a basic discipline. From the subject direction, \ x0d \ includes three categories, namely: \x0d\ 1. Direction of industrial process control: based on automatic control and computer technology, the actual industrial production process is automatically controlled, and it is controlled by signal detection and transformation, process control and computer. \x0d\2。 Direction of electrical engineering: enable students to engage in power system automation, power supply and electrical control and monitoring in factories and enterprises, design, development, maintenance and management of building systems. It consists of electric control technology, motion control, PLC application technology, power supply technology and power system relay protection. \x0d\3。 Embedded system direction: pay attention to the cultivation of embedded system design and software design ability, combine theory with practice, and cultivate professionals in embedded system direction through classroom teaching, experiments and other learning forms; The main courses include embedded system design, embedded real-time operating system, DSP technology, advanced display technology and control motor. \x0d\ Judging from the professional influence involved in the basic discipline of automation: \x0d\ Judging from the depth-taking industrial production as an example, everything from an ordinary equipment motor to the whole manufacturing system and even the whole production process of an enterprise belongs to automation. \x0d\ Broadly speaking, it involves industrial automation of the secondary industry, agricultural automation of the primary industry and service automation of the tertiary industry (such as office automation, building automation, commercial automation, traffic automation, etc.). The systems involved can include man-made systems (such as machine systems, transportation systems, electric power systems and military systems) and natural systems (such as life systems and ecological systems), and the processes involved include production processes. The word \x0d\ artificial intelligence was first put forward at the Dartmouth Society in 1956. Since then, researchers have developed many theories and principles, and the concept of artificial intelligence has also expanded. \x0d\ artificial intelligence (AI). It is a new technical science to study and develop theories, methods, technologies and application systems that simulate, extend and expand human intelligence. Artificial intelligence tries to understand the nature of intelligence and produce a new intelligent machine that can respond in a way similar to human intelligence. The research in this field includes robot, language recognition, image recognition, natural language processing and expert system. Since the birth of artificial intelligence, the theory and technology are becoming more and more mature, and the application fields are expanding. It is conceivable that the technological products brought by artificial intelligence in the future will be the "containers" of human wisdom. There is another saying that artificial intelligence is attributed to computer technology, \x0d\ that artificial intelligence is a derivative direction of computer technology.
