AI Facts and Myths

Already, the electronic brains of the most advanced robotic models surpass human intelligence and are able to do things that will make some of us shudder uncomfortably. But what is your reaction going to be after learning about recent advances in robotics and artificial intelligence?

It was hailed as the most significant test of machine intelligence since Deep Blue defeated Garry Kasparov in chess nearly 20 years ago. Google’s AlphaGo has won two of the first three games against grandmaster Lee Sedol in a Go tournament, showing the dramatic extent to which AI has improved over the years. That fateful day when machines finally become smarter than humans has never appeared closer—yet we seem no closer in grasping the implications of this epochal event.

Stephen Hawking, Bill Gates, and Elon Musk have something in common, and it’s not wealth or intelligence. They’ re all terrified of the AI takeover. Also called the AI apocalypse, the AI takeover is a hypothetical scenario where artificially intelligent machines become the dominant life-form on Earth. It could be that robots rise and become our overlords, or worse, they exterminate mankind and claim Earth as their own.

Artificial intelligence is already being used in businesses across industries – from retail to telecommunications to travel and hospitality. Yet as AI usage continues to expand, the misperceptions regarding AI’s role in the corporate world are impacting companies’ next steps in their industries.

Although artificial intelligence has become commonplace — most smartphones contain some version of AI, such as speech recognition — the public still has a poor understanding of the technology.

Artificial Intelligence also known as AI is a 5G technology which is developed more every new day. AI started in 1950, when the world famous programmer Alan Turing shows the Turing Test in his paper “Computer Machine and Intelligence” .

Bill Gates calls this market the “holy grail” of computer science.

First, is the business potential of AI real or not? Second, how does AI apply to my business? In this post, we discuss the 7 Myths of AI.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is actually being used more than you might think. Here's what you need to know about the current state of AI and where it's going.

Tech Insider talked to AI researchers, roboticists, and computer scientists the most surprising facts that they learned during their careers.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is the field within computer science that seeks to explain and to emulate, through mechanical or computational processes, some or all aspects of human intelligence. Included among these aspects of intelligence are the ability to interact with the environment through sensory means and the ability to make decisions in unforeseen circumstances without human intervention.

AI is developing faster than you may think—here are some quick facts to get you up to speed on this technology.

Artificial Intelligence (or AI) got its start in 1950, when computer pioneer Alan Turing introduced the Turing test in his paper “Computing Machinery and Intelligence.” The test involves a judge who must communicate with two participants in two different rooms. In one room is a machine, and in the other is a real person.

Given the overwhelming amount of excitement (and inevitable medial noise) I decided to make a concise summary of the state of technology (as of late 2016) in order to not go insane. What is AI? Artificial intelligence is a misleading buzzword and these days it is used for anything having to do with automation via computing.

Most people have gleaned their understanding of artificial intelligence (AI) from science fiction more than from real life.

IT leaders must walk a fine line between embracing and overplaying AI technologies' role in delivering business value for digital business.

From killer robots, to runaway sentience, there's a lot of FUD that needs clearing up.

Common misconceptions about the technology and the truths behind these notions.

There are a lot of myths out there about AI, but if AI is to become an engine of revolution, it’s up to us to imagine opportunities.

A captivating conversation is taking place about the future of artificial intelligence and what it will/should mean for humanity. There are fascinating controversies where the world’s leading experts disagree, such as: AI’s future impact on the job market; if/when human-level AI will be developed; whether this will lead to an intelligence explosion; and whether this is something we should welcome or fear.

Artificial intelligence (AI, also machine intelligence, MI) is intelligence exhibited by machines, rather than humans or other animals (natural intelligence, NI).
