English VOCABULARY Lesson: AI

(bright upbeat music)

Let's look next at vocabulary.

Hmm. Vocabulary, artificial intelligence.

So, we're gonna look at vocabulary here next.

Artificial intelligence is the keyword.

What I've done is I've marked the stress,

the word stress in a different color.

So, it's artificial.

Notice the sh, although it looks like a sa,

you can see it's a sh, a sh sound.

And it's a r, artificial.

When you practice this, I suggest you know that

what you do when you practice slow down.

Artificial.

Artificial.

Artificial.

The stress is on the ar-

Artificial.

Intelligence.

Can you see that? The intelligence.

The th-

Intelligence.

Artificial intelligence.

And then speed up, artificial intelligence.

Good. And you'll feel the rhythm.

Artificial intelligence.

DDD, DD. Artificial intelligence.

That's it. Slow down, speed up, and practice.

Artificial intelligence.

This is from the dictionary.

It's the simulation of human intelligence by machines.

So, it's getting human intelligence,

but not from humans, but from a machine.

For example, artificial intelligence can help us...

Well, for example, what,

can you give me an ending to this sentence?

What would you say? Artificial intelligence.

Artificial intelligence can help us...

What do you say?

Give me some answer and we can have a look.

Let's see.

♪ Bababa, baba ♪

Artificial can help us.

Let's see, let's see, let's see, let's see.

Have a better life.

Yeah. Pouria, very, very good.

I'm gonna help you just a little bit here

because have...

I'm gonna help you put in the a,

have a better life, right?

Working. Good, yes.

Learn new languages.

Very good, Faith, yes.

Can help us developing knowledge.

Can help us develop knowledge,

can help us developing knowledge.

Both developing or develop.

You can have infinitive or gerund here, right?

Connect together. Yes.

Do homework. Yep.

Sayeh, let me also just help you a bit

because homework is one of those strange words.

It's not countable, it's uncountable.

So, you cannot say homeworks.

You have to say homework.

Generally, it's not countable, right?

In research, can help us in research.

Saima, very good. Absolutely.

It can help us chat when we're alone.

Yuwei, that's true actually. Yes.

Annarita says, "Artificial intelligence,

artificial intelligence can help us

to reduce time for working."

Can reduce time for working.

That sounds like you have more time for working.

It can help us to reduce, I would say,

to reduce working time.

'Cause otherwise, it sounds like you reduce time

so we can work more, right?

Which I think is not what you're saying.

I would change that, Annarita, to

it can help us to reduce working time.

To reduce our working time, maybe. Okay?

Can help us boost productivity. Absolutely, yes.

It can help us learn on our own.

Yes, Min Soe, especially with personalized learning.

To learn English, of course. Yes, exactly.

Can help us in education.

Very, very true. Yes.

Can help us to memorize.

Maybe, Stefano, maybe.

Can help us in making things easier.

Somebody talked about driving a car, which is true.

Can help us drive our car. Yes.

It's gone. I can't find it now.

Can help to generate ideas.

Excellent. Lots of very, very good ideas.

Yeah. So, that's artificial intelligence.

We can talk about things being AI-driven,

AI-powered,

AI-controlled.

All these are the same.

So it means it's operated by AI.

If something is operated by AI,

it is AI driven, AI powered,

AI controlled, all of those are good,

good ways of saying it, whoops.

Okay.

AI driven tools, for example,

AI driven tools are becoming more and more popular.

Very, very true. Right?

We can talk about the algorithm.

So, again, notice the stress on the Al-

Algorithm and the...

This is a ga, ga, not go

but ga, algorithm.

Slow down, algorithm.

Algorithm.

Speed up, algorithm,

Dum, da, dum, dum da, dum algorithm.

That's it. The algorithm.

This is a set of instructions given to an AI system

to help it learn from data.

Algorithms are used widely in, (chuckles)

well, guys, you tell me.

What's your answer to this question?

Algorithms are used widely in? In what?

(bright upbeat music)

Good.

(bright upbeat music)

Hmm. Can be.

(bright upbeat music)

Yeah.

(bright upbeat music)

(Keith chuckles)

Good.

(bright upbeat music)

Ah, yes.

(bright upbeat music)

Yes.

(bright upbeat music)

Possibly.

Games. Yes.

Websites. Yes, yes.

Yep.

(bright upbeat music)

Yes, true. Yes.

(bright upbeat music)

Generative art.

I love your accents on the E. (chuckles)

(bright upbeat music)

Yeah. Marketing.

- Mm, mm, mm. - No.

- Yes.

(bright upbeat music)

Informatic, I think you mean IT, right? In IT.

(bright upbeat music)

(chuckles) In our life.

Well, yes.

Yeah, APT. Hmm.

(bright music)

Recipes.

Ah, interesting, Daniela.

(bright upbeat music)

Um. Mm, mm, mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm. (bright upbeat music)

Yeah. Absolutely.

Excellent loads of very, very good ideas. Right?

I'm just gonna put a few marketing,

social media,

Netflix,

designing websites maybe.

Yep. All of those sound correct to me.

I am by no means an expert, (chuckles)

but I think it's true.

Good.

Now another important word here is automate.

Again, notice the ah, the stress on the oh.

and it's not ah or ow.

It's oh, oh.

As in more, MORE.

It's or, and again, notice the two.

It's not tomato, tomato. It's th, th.

So, it becomes automate.

Automate.

Slow down.

If you want to improve your pronunciation, slow down.

Automate.

Then speed up.

Automate.

Automate.

D, d, d.

Automate.

Automate, automate, automate, automate. That's it.

That way, you are really controlling your pronunciation.

If you go too too quickly or too fast,

you are not in control.

Get control of your pronunciation.

It's really important. Automate. (chuckles)

Automate, and this is to make a process automatic

by having machines do it.

For example, AI can help us automate a lot of jobs

such as analyzing big data.

Absolutely true. Right?

Another word obviously, which is closely connected

to automate is automatic.

But notice the stress changes.

So, for the adjective it becomes ma, automatic.

The verb, automate.

The adjective automatic.

And again, control it.

Slow down. Automatic.

Automatic.

Good, automatic.

We also have the adjective,

autonomous, which means independent.

I'm gonna put that on the next page.

Put them all together.

So, it's a different meaning.

So, autonomous means independent.

Again, notice the stress has changed.

Ton, ton, oh ton uh mas.

Yeah. Slow down.

Autonomous.

Autonomous.

Ti, ti, ti, ti.

Autonomous.

Yeah, autonomous.

For example, autonomous vehicles may become more popular

in the future.

I think they will for sure. Right?

I'm absolutely sure they will. Autonomous.

So, all of these words, very important connected

to this topic of AI, right?

Good.

We've got automatic system help risky, restricted areas.

True. True.

Automatic, automatic.

Algorithms are widely used in computer science.

Yeah.

Good. Automate a verb.

Yes, exactly.

Saima, yeah, it's one way to remember, right? Automate.

And actually, if it were me, I would put the R

'cause it sounds like an R, automate, automate.

Yeah. It's an interesting way of doing it.

And absolutely, that can work as well.

Whatever helps you remember pronunciation is good.

Okay, cool.

All of this, this pronunciation and this automating,

I'm gonna mention it

'cause I think it might be useful for some of you.

One of the courses I have automates grammar

and works on pronunciation in this way,

exactly this way.

And it's basically this one.

It's the Fluent Grammar Course.

The Fluent Grammar for IELTS Speaking.

Just to let you know, if you are interested,

it's about automating your grammar,

but to use it with the right intonation, okay?

Using it with the right intonation

so you get the right stress,

you get the right pronunciation,

but working on grammar, right, not vocabulary.

It's on the website.

You can go and check it out

on the Keith Speaking Academy website if you are interested.

Okay. Just to let you know.

Good. Lots of vocabulary.
