Is Artificial Intelligence getting smarter?
Artificial Intelligence - the word is synonymous with science fiction movies and books, and the whole concept was probably born in the mind of a writer at some point in time.
It's a subject that has - since around the 20th century - enjoyed more and more attention - even if most of it was in the minds of those who dreamed it up, and those who had fairly active imaginations.
That is for the most part - however - where it remained. It was a concept, a far flung idea that bordered on the edge of imagination and possibility. Personally, I believe Artificial Intelligence will largely remain that - artificial - no matter how advanced it may become.
What separates human beings from computers - from machines - is the human spirit. Having said that, one cannot help but wonder how far A.I. will develop, and what will be it's limitations? Will it even have limitations?
.I. is a field of technology that seems to be gaining momentum, with so much research being done in this field right now.The other question that needs to be asked is: How will A.I. be used to serve mankind and the world?
Researchers at are now conducting experiments using robots and a computers to research the relationship between cognitive responses and how we interact with the environment immediately around us. The computer has come a long way since the very first one was built in the second half of the 20th century. It was so big that it needed an entire room to fit into. And for all the computer's size, it was at that stage not much more powerful than a simple pocket calculator.
Of course today, all that has changed. Chips are getting smaller, processors are getting smaller, yet more powerful, so it stands to reason that computing power in even the smallest type of robot, is vastly more than ever before. So where will Artificial Intelligence be used? While the possibilities are probably endless, one area that comes to mind is construction, or in factories. Places where heavy lifting needs to be done, or where precision is of utmost importance. Imagine a machine that follows you around as you do your work, lifts heavy objects or even drills a hole in a wall where you tell it to.
I would suppose the ideal scenario would be that the actual interaction between human and machine would be much smoother. One can only wonder and speculate what the future of A.I. may bring...
