1.  According to the author, the term artificial intelligence refers to:
  1. using computers to solve problems on their own
  2. a new kind of cochlear implant
  3. using cheaper labor to accomplish a task
  4. any tool that can help make a person's job easier
2.  Which of the following is an application of artificial intelligence (AI) in audiology mentioned in this article?
  1. Using KEMAR or another acoustic manikin to counsel patients
  2. Using an AI algorithm to help triage dizzy patients
  3. Using an AI scanner to identify acoustic neuromas
  4. Using an AI system to place electrodes on babies undergoing NICU ABR screening
3.  Which statement best describes MACHINE LEARNING as it refers to artificial intelligence?
  1. An algorithm that determines on its own whether the prediction is provided was correct or not, and may involve more than one algorithm working together.
  2. A machine operating in automatic mode, from a vacuum cleaner to a self-cleaning oven.
  3. When a machine teaches a human how to perform a task such as a robot that teaches children how to tie shoes.
  4. A set of AI procedures that become more accurate at discovering patterns over time, and is supervised by humans who make adjustments when errors are predicted.
4.  Which statement best describes DEEP LEARNING as it refers to artificial intelligence?
  1. An algorithm that determines on its own whether the prediction is provided was correct or not, and may involve more than one algorithm working together.
  2. A machine operating in automatic mode, from a vacuum cleaner to a self-cleaning oven.
  3. When a machine teaches a human how to perform a task such as a robot that teaches children how to tie shoes.
