Abstract(s)
The idea of an intelligent machine has fascinated humans for centuries. But what is
intelligence? Some define it as the capacity for learning, reasoning, understanding or, from
a different perspective, the aptitude to grasp truths, relationships, facts, or meanings. All
these perspectives require the capacity to acquire data from the surrounding world and,
possibly, act over that environment. In short, the building of more or less autonomous
agents, served with sensors and actuators, capable of learning and producing educated
answers has been long foreseen.
New trends in intelligente systems comprise, among other aspects, pervasive robotization, ubiquitous online data access, empowered edge computing, smart spaces, and
digital ethics. These trends build the research on “Artificial Intelligence Applications and
Innovation”, impacting our day-to-day life, our cities, and even our free time. Nevertheless,
artificial intelligence (AI) is still closely associated with some popular misconceptions that
cause the public to either have unrealistic fears about it or to have unrealistic expectations
about how it will change our workplace and life in general. It is important to show that such
fears are unfounded and that new trends, innovations, technologies, and smart systems
will be able to improve the way we live, benefiting society without replacing humans in
their core activities.
