Think? The Case For and Against Artificial Intelligence Artificial intelligence has been the subject of many bad "80’s" movies and countless science fiction novels. But what happens when we seriously consider the question of computers that think. Is it possible for computers to have complex thoughts‚ and even emotions‚ like homo sapien? This paper will seek to answer that question and also look at what attempts are being made to make artificial intelligence (hereafter called AI) a reality

The Social Impact of Artificial Intelligence By Matt Mahoney‚ Nov. 17‚ 2007 When we are able to create machines smarter than humans‚ then those machines could do likewise‚ but much faster. The result will be an explosion of intelligence‚ and according to Vernor Vinge‚ the end of the human era. The Friendly AI Problem The Singularity Institute was founded to counter the threat of unfriendly artificial intelligence‚ losing control of the machines we have built‚ but the problem remains unsolved

Artificial intelligence or Al for short capability of a computer to perform functions that is normally associated with human intelligence‚ such as reasoning‚ learning or self-improvement. Its concept requests a lot more than present information to the user; it requires that the machine is not only able to store and manipulate information but also to deal with its "meaning". AI is what we call understanding‚ a combination of computer science‚ physiology and philosophy. The element that the fields

In the article “Opinion: Can artificial intelligence be ethical?” published by Project Syndicate‚ professor Peter Singer tries to persuade his readers that with how AI has progressed‚ with its advantages and its unknowns‚ it could result in immoral consequences so we have to try to teach machines how to behave ethically. Singer states that “AlphaGo was designed to win by playing a huge number of games against other programs and adopting the best strategies that proved successful” (par. 3) saying

Artificial intelligence First‚ for more than 20 years‚ computers have been an important part among classmates and children‚ which made schools and universities more flexible by for example virtual classes online. The major difference between traditional and virtual universities or schools is that all children‚ students‚ teachers and knowledge are connected as a bit of information. In the future the process of teaching will take place with no desks and classrooms but through the internet.
