GPS (Global Positioning System) is a satellite-based navigation system that provides location and time information anywhere on Earth, as long as there is a clear Line of Sight (LOS) to four or more GPS satellites.
GPS devices are commonly installed in cars, taxis, and aircraft for navigation, tracking, and location services. They are also present in many smartphones and other personal devices, but not exclusively.

[ Option A ]

• GPS (Global Positioning System) is the global satellite-based navigation system developed by the United States. It provides location, navigation, and timing services to users around the world.
• Galileo – Developed by the European Union.
• BeiDou – Developed by China.
• GLONASS – Developed by Russia. It is the second oldest GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) after GPS.
• GLONASS stands for Globalnaya Navigatsionnaya Sputnikovaya Sistema (in Russian). In English same as GNSS.

Image Organizer software is designed to manage and arrange digital images efficiently. Unlike graphic editing software, which focuses on modifying images, image organizers help you:

• Resize images.
• Tag and categorize images for easy searching.
• Create albums and collections using drag-and-drop.
• Export images to other devices or formats.

[ Option A ]

The Global Positioning System (GPS) uses Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) technology for signal transmission and access. GPS satellites transmit on the same frequency, but each satellite uses a unique code to allow receivers to distinguish signals. This is the principle of CDMA.

[ Option B ]

UPI (Unified Payments Interface), IMPS (Immediate Payment Service), and NEFT (National Electronic Funds Transfer) are all means of transferring money electronically in India.

IFSC (Indian Financial System Code) is not a method of money transfer, rather, it is a unique alphanumeric code used to identify a specific bank branch in India.

One additional payment system is RTGS (Real Time Gross Settlement), which is used for large-value transactions and processes transfers instantly in real time without waiting for batch settlements.

Social Media refers to platforms and tools that allow users to create, share, and interact with content online. Common modes of social media:

[ Option C ]

The first statement is incorrect because the simple reflex agents act only on the current percept using condition-action rules. They do not consider past history.
The second statement is correct because in a deterministic environment, the next state is completely determined by the current state and action.
The third statement is correct because in AI terminology, a semi-dynamic environment means the environment state is static, but the agent’s performance score can change, reflecting the passage of time or other external evaluation factors.

[ Option C ]

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the branch of computer science that deals with creating systems capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence, such as reasoning, learning, and problem-solving.

John McCarthy, an American computer scientist, is recognized as the “Father of Artificial Intelligence” because he both coined the term "Artificial Intelligence" in 1955 and organized the Dartmouth Conference in 1956, which is widely considered the birth of AI as an academic field.

• John McCarthy also created the LISP programming language, which became fundamental to early AI research.

[ Option B ]

Aryabhata was India’s first satellite, launched on 19 April 1975 by the Soviet Union using a Kosmos-3M launch vehicle. Marked the beginning of India’s space program under ISRO (Indian Space Research Organisation).

[ Option B ]

In cloud computing, different service models provide varying levels of resources and management. Software as a Service (SaaS) is the model that delivers applications over the internet, allowing users to access software such as word processors, Customer Relationship Management (CRM) tools, or email clients without installing them locally.

[ Option C ]

GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) was developed by ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute) in the late 1980s. It originated in Europe to standardize mobile communication systems.

[ Option C ]

Cloud Storage allows users to store data on the internet instead of a local device, making it accessible from anywhere with an internet connection. Google Drive is a cloud-based application that allows users to upload, store, and manage various data formats, including documents, spreadsheets, presentations, photos, videos, and other audio-visual files on the internet.

[ Option D ]

Machine Learning (ML) is a subfield of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that focuses on developing algorithms and systems which can learn from data and improve their performance automatically without explicit programming.

• Machine learning algorithms improve their performance by using learned patterns and adjusting themselves based on feedback or additional data.
• They are designed to execute specific tasks, such as image recognition, translation, or prediction, with increasing accuracy.
• The key feature is that their performance improves over time with experience, meaning the more data or iterations they receive, the better they typically become at solving the given task.

[ Option D ]

An Artificial Intelligence (AI) agent is a computer program that can sense what is happening around it, make decisions, and take actions to reach goals. It works on its own without needing someone to tell it every step. AI agents learn from experience and can adapt to changes in their environment. They are used in many areas to help automate tasks and solve problems.

[ Option C ]

A Utility-Based Agent in AI (Artificial Intelligence) goes beyond just achieving a goal. Unlike a Goal-Based Agent, which only decides whether a goal is achieved, a utility-based agent evaluates multiple possible actions using a utility function.
The utility function assigns a numeric value to each possible state, reflecting how “Good” or “Satisfactory” that state is.
