With the continuous progress of science and technology, the mechanical field is also constantly upgrading from traditional mechanical engineering to the mechatronics engineering and artificial intelligence (AI) is one of them. AI deals with a computer program that possesses own decision-making capability to solve a problem of interest with imitates the intelligent behavior of expertise which finally turns into higher productivity with better quality output. From the inception, various developments have been done on AI system which nowadays widely implemented in the mechanical and/or manufacturing industries with broaden area of application such as pattern recognition, automation, computer vision, virtual reality, diagnosis, image processing, nonlinear control, robotics, automated reasoning, data mining and process control systems. In this study, review attempt has been made for AI technologies used in various mechanical fields such as thermal, manufacturing, design, quality control and various connected fields of mechanical engineering. The study shows the blend mixed of AI technologies like deep convolutional neural network (DCNN), convolutional neural network (CNN), artificial neural network (ANN), fuzzy logic and many more to control the process parameters, process planning, machining, quality control and optimization in the mechanical era for smooth development of product or system. With the implementation of AI in mechanical engineering applications, the error, rejection of components can be minimized or eliminated and system optimization can be achieved effectively turn in economical better quality products.
