A number of factors are involved in establishing the possibility of robot sentience. Judgement Day's XCR-1 robotic robot has nonsymbolic pain (machine pain), and its circuitry as well as cognitive abilities suggests it may be able to communicate with humans. A robot's sentience may not be based on neural activity in the brain.
Terminator 2 - Judgement Day's robot sentience
Sentience is an issue that has been debated in movies. Some people believe robots shouldn't be sentient, while others think robots should. The film shows that the robot can sense pain and is sentient. This sentience was demonstrated by the Terminator in Judgement Day.
The film tells the story of Kyle Reese (a soldier from 2029) who rescues Sarah from a Terminator. He also begins a cat and mouse game. The movie's events are set chronologically following the first movie but there are many differences. In the sequel, robots become sentient and the film focuses on the dangers of artificial intelligent.
HAL's circuitry
HAL is an artificial Intelligence Computer Program that was launched in January 1992. HAL was first released in 1992 in film form. The novel version came out in 1997. The program has speech, facial recognition as well as natural language processing, lip-reading, art appreciation, and automatic reasoning. Although HAL was not shown in the film as a sentient robot, it is still considered an advanced artificial intelligence.
While the events are similar in story and film, they differ in important details. The novel, for example, absolves Heywood Floyd of all responsibility for the damage caused to HAL's circuitry, and the film, by contrast, focuses on Floyd's failure to reactivate HAL after it is wiped out by a malfunction. Floyd claims that HAL was programmed with TMA-1 information by the White House.
FAQ
Who invented AI?
Alan Turing
Turing was conceived in 1912. His father, a clergyman, was his mother, a nurse. At school, he excelled at mathematics but became depressed after being rejected by Cambridge University. He began playing chess, and won many tournaments. After World War II, he was employed at Bletchley Park in Britain, where he cracked German codes.
He died in 1954.
John McCarthy
McCarthy was born 1928. He was a Princeton University mathematician before joining MIT. There he developed the LISP programming language. By 1957 he had created the foundations of modern AI.
He died in 2011.
How will governments regulate AI
The government is already trying to regulate AI but it needs to be done better. They should ensure that citizens have control over the use of their data. They must also ensure that AI is not used for unethical purposes by companies.
They must also ensure that there is no unfair competition between types of businesses. Small business owners who want to use AI for their business should be allowed to do this without restrictions from large companies.
Which countries are leaders in the AI market today, and why?
China leads the global Artificial Intelligence market with more than $2 billion in revenue generated in 2018. China's AI industry is led Baidu, Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. Tencent Holdings Ltd. Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd., Xiaomi Technology Inc.
China's government invests heavily in AI development. China has established several research centers to improve AI capabilities. The National Laboratory of Pattern Recognition is one of these centers. Another center is the State Key Lab of Virtual Reality Technology and Systems and the State Key Laboratory of Software Development Environment.
China is also home to some of the world's biggest companies like Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent, and Xiaomi. All of these companies are currently working to develop their own AI solutions.
India is another country that has made significant progress in developing AI and related technology. India's government is currently focusing its efforts on developing a robust AI ecosystem.
How does AI work?
An algorithm is a set or instructions that tells the computer how to solve a particular problem. An algorithm is a set of steps. Each step has a condition that determines when it should execute. Each instruction is executed sequentially by the computer until all conditions have been met. This repeats until the final outcome is reached.
Let's say, for instance, you want to find 5. It is possible to write down every number between 1-10, calculate the square root for each and then take the average. You could instead use the following formula to write down:
sqrt(x) x^0.5
This says to square the input, divide it by 2, then multiply by 0.5.
The same principle is followed by a computer. It takes your input, squares it, divides by 2, multiplies by 0.5, adds 1, subtracts 1, and finally outputs the answer.
What is the state of the AI industry?
The AI industry is expanding at an incredible rate. By 2020, there will be more than 50 billion connected devices to the internet. This will enable us to all access AI technology through our smartphones, tablets and laptops.
This shift will require businesses to be adaptable in order to remain competitive. If they don't, they risk losing customers to companies that do.
The question for you is, what kind of business model would you use to take advantage of these opportunities? Would you create a platform where people could upload their data and connect it to other users? Perhaps you could also offer services such a voice recognition or image recognition.
Whatever you decide to do in life, you should think carefully about how it could affect your competitive position. Even though you might not win every time, you can still win big if all you do is play your cards well and keep innovating.
Why is AI used?
Artificial intelligence (computer science) is the study of artificial behavior. It can be used in practical applications such a robotics, natural languages processing, game-playing, and other areas of computer science.
AI can also be called machine learning. This refers to the study of machines learning without having to program them.
There are two main reasons why AI is used:
-
To make life easier.
-
To do things better than we could ever do ourselves.
Self-driving vehicles are a great example. We don't need to pay someone else to drive us around anymore because we can use AI to do it instead.
