In this book written by author Martin Ford in "Rise of the Robots: Technology and the Threat of a Jobless Future he talks about the threat of job loss and economic difficulties that future use of robots are putting on the workers. Do you like your job? Are you easily replaceable? What about a robot taking over your job? These robots are coming for pretty much any job from fast food to sorting boxes in a factory. Are these robots getting too smart, too flexible and too convenient? Well,…
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…
Watson Watson is a computer system that was designed and built by IBM in order to compete on Jeopardy, an American TV quiz show, against human contestants at an expert level live on the show. Watson was named after IBM founder Thomas J. Watson. IBM Research have set out objectives to develop computer science with regard to pushing the boundaries of computer technology so as to advance the areas such as business, society and of course science. In order to achieve, this IBM Research took 3 years…
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…
Nature reclaims technology through artificial intelligence of Virtual Reality headset wearables. This assignment will give, in detail, whether nature and technology are positioned as binary or opposites. Furthermore, a design or artwork of a form of interactive technology will be included, to constitute the relationship between human user and that interactive technology. Also the assignment will be focusing in depth towards the meaning or definitions for the words ‘technological’, ‘nature’ and…
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…
