Artificial selection

To be able to write in depth about Artificial Intelligence, the readers must first know what it is and how it works. First, some important terms need defining. Artificial Intelligence or AI is a, “... subfield of computer science that focuses on creating computer software that imitates human learning and reasoning” (Blackwell and Manar 1). Different from most computer programs, Artificial Intelligence does not use a predetermined step system with instructions, otherwise known as algorithms.…

This generation we have the most advanced technology than we ever had, we have new products that help us do virtually everything. N.A.S.A has created a new robot called the Valkyrie that can save you from disaster, and even complete missions. The Valkyrie is of much use, and it is mainly designed for the DARPA competition; DARPA stands for Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. As you can see here we are trying to create robots and machine to help us to function better and protect us, and…

SPEECH RECOGNITION INTRODUCTION Speech recognition is also said to be automatic speech recognition or computer speech recognition which means understanding voice of the human and performing any required task or the ability to match a voice against a acquired or provided vocabulary.¬¬ It is a process by which a computer takes speech signal and converts it into words in real time according to an algorithm implemented as a computer program. It is achieved by following certain steps and the…

of substrate independence. In this claim, he argues that if we can model the mind with sufficient detail, similarly we can create artificial ones that can think in the same way we do. He further argues that if we could simulate the whole world with enough detail and feed the entire world with artificial minds we had created in sensory form inputs, then the artificial brains cannot determine whether they are in a simulation unless their creators provide them with the explicit knowledge to do so.…

alongside humans what does this mean for us and where could it lead? From the moment we are born to the time we die, we are surrounded by machines. Technology is always advancing in strides and leaps and now we are running towards the finish line, artificial intelligence. Now there are a number of different viewpoints on humanities latest goal. One of the most vocal of them is from the renowned author, Sherry Turkle. In Turkle's latest book Alone Together: Why We Expect More from…

Strong AI, or AI that has surpassed our human intelligence, and could be a grave danger to society. He goes on to claim that Artificial Intelligence could in a way represent a “Super Clinician.” This super clinical could be better than a human practitioner as it could be built with advanced technology that can perceive the human body unlike a human. In his work, Artificial Intelligence in Psychological Practice: Current and Future Applications and Implications, Luxton states “The super clinician…

The movie that i watched and reminds me about Artificial Intelligence and robotics is the classic science fiction film TERMINATOR 2 and shows us what we have still to learn about Artificial Intelligence.Terminator 2 tells the story of two cyborgs sent back in time from the future,one is the T800 which is living tissue over metal endoskeleton which was performed by the most iconic role Arnold Schwarzenegger to protect the future leader of the human resistance;the other (the T1000, a more advanced…

self-organizing. Swarm Intelligence, SI, is considered to be the area of Artificial Intelligence that is based on studying actions of individuals in various decentralized systems~\cite{bonabeau1999}. However, there is still today big discrepancy between two schools of thought in the Artificial intelligence that are known by the name \textit{neat} and \textit{scruffy} AI. This names are labels for two different type of artificial intelligence research. Neat researchers in AI are basing their work…

Robotics is one of the young fields of modern technology that has crossed the limits of traditional engineering.[1] Understanding of robots requires knowledge from a very vast domain including mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, systems and industrial engineering, economics, computer science and mathematics. Manufacturing engineering, knowledge engineering and applications engineering are some of the new fields which are emerging rapidly to deal with the complexity of robotics and…

Computers and artificial agents become more and more sophisticated every year and more frequently involved in human’s everyday life. This increases the need to interact with them in a more natural way, similar to the way we interact with each other. Museum tour-guide robots (Nourbrakhsh, 1999) and robots that interact with the elderly (Montemerlo, 2002) demonstrate that we do not need robots just to interact with people, but also that there is a need for the interactions to be smooth and natural…
