Abstract
The present disclosure provides an air conditioning apparatus and a method for controlling same. The method for controlling an air conditioning apparatus comprises the steps of: the air conditioning apparatus receiving, from an external server, user sleep information acquired on the basis of data on time for which the air conditioning apparatus is operated in a sleep cooling mode used during the user's sleep; and operating in the cooling mode on the basis of the user sleep information. Specifically, at least part of an operation for acquiring the user sleep information on the basis of the user's control command may use an artificial intelligence model obtained by learning according to at least one of a machine learning, a neural network, and a deep learning algorithm.
