Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative force across various domains, driven by its robust theoretical underpinnings and widespread practical applications. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of AI's theoretical foundations, including machine learning, neural networks, and algorithmic design, while tracing their historical evolution. Practical applications such as healthcare, autonomous systems, natural language processing, and robotics are explored, highlighting their impact on industries and societal structures. Moreover, the ethical considerations surrounding AI, including bias, accountability, and societal implications, are critically examined to underscore the need for responsible AI deployment. The synthesis of theoretical, practical, and ethical dimensions offers an integrated perspective, emphasizing the interdisciplinary nature of AI and its profound implications for the future.
