| 1 | Artificial Intelligence is the art and science of developing intelligent machines. | Soft Computing aims to exploit tolerance for uncertainty, imprecision, and partial truth. | 
| 2 | AI plays a fundamental role in finding missing pieces between the interesting real world problems. | Soft Computing comprises techniques which are inspired by human reasoning and have the potential in handling imprecision, uncertainty and partial truth. | 
| 3 | Branches of AI :   1. Reasoning
2. Perception
3. Natural language processing   | Branches of soft computing :   1. Fuzzy systems
2. Evolutionary computation
3. Artificial neural computing   | 
| 4 | AI has countless applications in healthcare and widely used in analyzing complicated medical data. | They are used in science and engineering disciplines such as data mining, electronics, automotive, etc. | 
| 5 | Goal is to stimulate human-level intelligence in machines. | It aims at accommodation with the pervasive imprecision of the real world. | 
| 6 | They require programs to be written. | They not require all programs to be written, they can evolve its own programs. | 
| 7 | They require exact input sample. | They can deal with ambiguous and noisy data. |
