Many people fear the implications that technology can have on society and the human race as a whole. Artificial intelligence in particular‚ or AI‚ has created much controversy about whether or not it should be used. A dangerous application of AI is using it in the programming of harmful weapons and the development of autonomous weapons. According to Ray Kurzweil‚ computer scientist and futurist‚ “superintelligence by its nature cannot be controlled” (Kurzweil‚ 2010). Because of this‚ the U.S government

Weak artificial intelligence is essentially a grouping of computer programs‚ which need human input whereas strong artificial intelligence has the ability to think and have the same cognitive brain activity as humans do. Searle accepts the idea of weak artificial intelligence but on the other hand he rejects strong artificial intelligence

Have you ever heard of artificial intelligence? Well “Flowers for Algernon” written by Daniel Keyes is about just that. When Charlie Gordon is chosen for an operation to triple his IQ he is ecstatic. But he knows it may not last forever and he is prepared for that. He ends up getting the operation and it worked! But not for long. After a few weeks he sees signs of loss of intelligence just like a mouse named Algernon with the same operation. After the mouse dies Charlie loses all hope and he knows

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

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
