Ambient intelligence (AmI) is intrinsically and thoroughly connected with artificial intelligence (AI). Some even say that it is, in essence, AI in the environment. AI, on the other hand, owes its success to the phenomenal development of the information and communication technologies (ICTs), based on principles such as Moore’s law. In this paper we give an overview of the progress in AI and AmI interconnected with ICT through information-society laws, superintelligence, and several related disciplines, such as multi-agent systems and the Semantic Web, ambient assisted living and e-healthcare, AmI for assisting medical diagnosis, ambient intelligence for e-learning and ambient intelligence for smart cities. Besides a short history and a description of the current state, the frontiers and the future of AmI and AI are also considered in the paper.

人工智能和环境智能

环境智能（AmI）与人工智能（AI）具有内在的和彻底的联系。甚至有人说，从本质上讲，它是环境中的AI。另一方面，人工智能的成功归功于基于摩尔定律等原理的信息和通信技术（ICT）的惊人发展。在本文中，我们概述了AI和AmI通过信息社会法律，超级智能以及一些相关学科（如多代理系统和语义网，环境辅助生活和电子医疗，AmI）与ICT互连的进展用于协助医疗诊断，用于电子学习的环境情报和用于智慧城市的环境情报。除了简短的历史和对当前状态的描述之外，本文还考虑了AmI和AI的前沿和未来。
