How does an AI perceive an image ?

I was sitting outside the church due to lack of space, I gazed upon a billboard
it was about an conference regarding some social issue. It had one picture of a chief guest
and rest was info about the time and place and the name of the person on the picture.

The person in the picture resembled a person I knew. I started thinking about that person
and how long it was since I last saw that person and recalled few fond memories with that person.
I even made some rough plans to meet up the persons in my mind over the coming few weeks.

Now how will AI perceive this billboard or a poster?

will it be able to identify the person in the picture and map the name below it to the person?
May be.



Will the AI be able to find some similarity of the person ?
Yes it can be trained to do so . i.e to find the persons similar to that picture.

Will it be able to make plans ?
I am not sure? unless may be you explicitly tell it to do so.

But what if I dint think of the person in that picture and thought about the color on which it
was portrayed?

It was on a red poster, I could have slipped into thinking about the communist parties in the country.
and may be few persons who lead them.


After making plans, I even began wondering how will AI perceive what I had just done by just looking at the poster
and started to think about writing this article.

This was just one strand of thought in the ocean of infinite possibilities that I happened to hit upon.
As you know the possibilities are endless here.

Coming back to the questioned poised to myself. How will an AI generate such possibilities?
Will it come close to such human thinking ??
I shall continue to ponder on the same.
