Currently Ai is working on giving Hal the conversational ability of a 5 year old. The company hopes that this will banish keyboards from our desks for good. Dr Richard Morgan, director of engineering at 3F Limited, a natural language processing company based in Durham, believes that Ai has a difficult task. In reality it is extremely difficult to develop the language skills of a 5 year old on a machine. Although a young child's language is not sophisticated, it has acquired knowledge about the world allowing it to use language.
Information is at their disposal.
It is not so easy for a computer. Dr Morgan believes that there are more important tasks than getting rid of the keyboard.
