help....i'm doing a report on Artificial Intelligence..?

Question

can i have your opinions regarding AI?
how do you view it?

Answer 1

Quoted from http://www.aaai.org/AITopics/html/aieffect.html

Researchers joked that AI stood for 'almost implemented'. AI research projects that worked well enough to make it on to the market, such as speech recognition, language translation, decision-support software, landing planes, reading hand-written postcards to sort mail, are suddenly no longer AI.

People often confuse AI with AH (artificially human). Games are a great example of the difference. A computer opponent that is intelligent will be able to move from point A to point B and go around obstacles. But if it always does it "intelligently" then it would be a straight line which the games would take advantage of quickly. If the game opponent is more human then it would vary it with flanking movements or attack from behind or even something stupid that can catch you off guard because it was so stupid you didnt expect it to be done.

Game programmers consider it to be a funny comment on humanity that to make an AI more human, you remove some of the intelligence and add more random. (which does actually tend to win more often)

Answer 2

Back in the eighties it held a lot of promise. Then it seemed that nobody spoke about it much anymore.
I think that people began to have a more realistic view of what AI could achieve.
Early AI principles got integrated into commercial software, but nobody called it AI anymore.

Answer 3

teaching the computer a way to perform, act or behave under various situations


very brief and wide..
