Never underestimate the heart of a champion even if it's a machine. The computer program AlphaGo made headlines one last time before hitting the rocking chair, beating Chinese master Kajie in a three-match series sweep. AI defeated the best human players in complex games like poker. The entire process rate of dinoxes can easily take half an hour to lose their hour, to analyze thousands of images, just from one patient's camera. But the whole process can be automated all within a few seconds by other mission managers. So that's the power of AI today. Our fascination for AI has been there for a very long time. Be it the battle for survival, but with the nearly extinct human race in Skynet. In the 1984 sci-fi thriller Terminator, all of 2013 American science fiction romantic drama Herb, which portrays a man who develops a relationship with Samantha, an artificially intelligent virtual assistant. While we are nowhere nearer to the level of intelligence portrayed by machines in these movies, but yes, AI is transforming and becoming more intelligent every second. With artificial intelligence surpassed human intelligence? The Turing Test developed by Alan Turing in 1950 is a test of a machine's ability to exhibit intelligent behavior. Equivalent to or indistinguishable from that of a human. During proposed that a human evaluator would judge natural language conversations between a human and a machine designed to generate human like responses. The evaluator would be aware that one of the two partners in conversation is a machine and all participants would be separated by one another. The University of Reading says the computer program is called Eugene Gustman has passed the iconic Turing Test. So it's fairly sophisticated. It did get one-third of the judges to actually think it was a Ukrainian boy and not a computer and that's a significant accomplishment. But it did it not through real intelligence, not through what Alan Turing thought of when he designed the test, but as you demonstrated through humor, through misdirection, through confusion. It mimicked the way a 13 year old boy would mock somebody asking questions and therefore was fairly persuasive to some people. But John Sull, an American philosopher, raised an interesting argument against strong artificial intelligence in his thought experiment, the Chinese Room. Sull's thought experiment begins with this hypothetical premise. Suppose that artificial intelligence research has succeeded in constructing a computer that behaves as if it understands Chinese. It takes Chinese characters as input and by following the instructions of a computer program produces other Chinese characters which it presents as output. Suppose, say Sull that this computer performs its task so convincingly that it comfortably pauses the Turing Test. It convinces a human Chinese speaker that the program is itself a life-Chinese speaker. To ask the questions that the person asks, it makes appropriate responses such that any Chinese speaker would be convinced that they are talking to another human being. The question Sull wants to answer is this. Does the machine literally understand Chinese or is it merely simulating the ability to understand Chinese? So Sull argues that without understanding we cannot describe what the machine is doing as thinking and since it does not think it does not have a mind in anything like the normal sense of the word. Hi, I'm calling to look at women's haircuts for our clients. I'm looking for something I may third. It turns out a big part of getting things done is making a phone call. In 2018, Google CEO Sull from the Pichai demonstrator, how a Google Assistant can make a haircut appointment with a Sullune and sound like an actual human. I have something out here. Hi, I'm calling to look at women's haircuts for our clients. I'm looking for something I may third. So I can need one. That's all. The conversation between the bot and the Sullune seems surprisingly human. And Google duplex wonderfully understands nuances of conversation. All this has been possible with years of research in natural language processing and deep learning. Google's Google Suplex phone call may seem unbelievably real but for AI to replicate human thinking is still a very long journey. While AI has succeeded in beating human champions in games like Go, Dota, Poker, AI still lacks common sense which every 10-year-old possesses. Today, AI can mimic human tasks in well-defined and controlled environments. Boston Dynamic Spot, a semi-autonomous four-legged robot, has been entertaining us with his moves on Bruno Mars uptown funk. Or is there a bridge to pull a truck? Spot knows how to climb stairs and avoid barriers. But it's still in human assistance. Spot can retrace its paths and navigate spaces and can be very useful in industrial spaces but in a well-defined environment. While Spot seems a step closer to an intelligent bot, but Boston Dynamic still has a long way to go before Spot can operate on its own intelligence. Nick Bossrom, a 43-year-old Swedish-born philosopher, speculates in his book that the biggest threat to wipe out human race is not a pandemic. Neither a nuclear winter or climate change, but it is machine intelligence that is greater than ours. Boston does mention that the human devil computing power has not yet been reached, but almost certainly will be attained well before 2050.
