ABSTRACT
Artificial intelligence (AI) has changed the way decisions are made in industries; however, its impact may be limited in situations with uncertainty where cause and effect relationships play a crucial role. While conventional AI models are good at spotting connections between variables they may struggle when it comes to predicting results in fields such as healthcare finance and self-driving vehicles where understanding causation is key. Causal inference an emerging area in AI goes beyond finding correlations and enables systems to make stronger and dependable decisions, in intricate settings. By incorporating reasoning into AI systems operations can enhance their predictive abilities by comprehending the fundamental mechanisms governing cause and effect connections This piece delves into the amalgamation of causal deduction in AI by examining its theoretical groundwork as well as practical implementations and the obstacles and advantages of merging causal understanding with machine learning. Through real life examples and new methodologies such as networks and counterfactual logic establishment this paper underscores how causal inference can enhance AIs decision making skills by rendering them more flexible and efficient, in ambiguous scenarios.
Keywords: Artificial Intelligence, Causal Inference, Machine Learning, Decision-Making, Bayesian Networks, Counterfactual Reasoning, Uncertainty, High-Stakes Environments, Predictive Models, Causality.
