Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly developing technology that is already being used in a wide range of fields worldwide. The predominant use of AI as a technology is in the field of mechanical engineering. AI technology is a concept used in mechanical engineering areas like robotics, automation, and sensor technology. It is straightforward to conclude that mechanical engineering spreads the application and use of AI throughout the environment. This study discusses the artificial neural network (ANN) system, which is a part of AI, its application in the fuel cell field and describes how it works. This paper also discusses the implementation of infrared thermography (IRT), advanced and upcoming technology in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC). So forth, it elaborates on the structure of PEMFC and provides a brief overview of their operation. As a result of using IR and AI, we will have an even more efficient fuel cell that prevents the membrane from burning due to heat generation, as well as a self-controlling fuel cell machine that uses AI to avoid improper feeding.
