In applications of AI, we utilize probability theory as follows:

  • The laws of probability define how AI frameworks ought to reason, so algorithms are designed to figure or approximate different expressions inferred on utilizing probability theory
  • Probability and statistics can be utilized to hypothetically investigate the behavior of proposed AI frameworks
