Abstract	Artificial intelligence (AI) has been a fascinating concept of science fiction for decades, but many researchers think AI is getting closer to reality. AI perceives its environment and takes actions that maximize its chance of successfully achieving its goals. The term "artificial intelligence" is applied when a machine mimics "cognitive" functions that humans associate with other human minds, such as "learning" and "problem solving". Artificial intelligence was founded as an academic discipline in 1956. In the late 1990s and early 21st century, AI began to be used for logistics, data mining, medical diagnosis and other areas. 2015 was a landmark year for artificial intelligence. In the year 2017,capabilities generally classified under AI were understanding human speech, competing at the highest level in strategic game systems (such as chess and Go), autonomous cars, intelligent routing in content delivery network and military simulations. This study makes an attempt to know fields in which AI is currently applied. It also talks about the future of AI and what it will/ should mean to humanity.
