The science and engineering of Artificial Intelligence has come a long way since 1950, when scientists began to explore the link between human intelligence and machines. Since then, computer scientists have made advances in creating machines that can engage in human-like behaviors, mimic human thought, understand speech, and beat the best human chessplayer. Applications are far and wide, from military technology to personal cell phones. This Topic In Depth reviews some of the past accomplishments, current research and future challenges in AI. John McCarthy from the Computer Science Department at Stanford University has posted this article answering some common questions people have about Artificial Intelligence, including the implications of this work for the meaning of intelligence. (1). This next website (part of a ThinkQuest website competition) gives a history of AI among other interesting tidbits about different approaches and applications (2). The Turing Test Page elaborates on Alan Turing's conditions for considering a machine to be intelligent, which he outlined in a 1950 article that is also available from this website (3). The Singularity Institute describes itsambitious plan to develop "real AI" (4). The New Scientist highlights some applications for AI which range from the traditional to new wave (5). On a lighter note, this webpage by IBM is dedicated to Deep Blue and the event that captured the attention of chess and computer fans -- the rematch between the supercomputer, Deep Blue, and Kasparov (6). Ai Research has made their HAL Nursery available to the public -- a collection of "Virtual Children" you can interact with online. (7).

The Limits of Artificial Intelligence

The Limits of Artificial Intelligence 12/19/2004 03:41 PM
A new ACM Ubiquity article addresses what the author, Alexandru Tugui, believes are limitations of artificial intelligence that cannot be overcome. The article is primarily concered with AI as a simulation of biological intelligence rather than with the creation of real machine intelligence. Even so, some of his objections seem a bit odd, such as the claim that AI can never truly simulate biological intelligence because it is limited to 1s and 0s whereas biological intelligence can have intermediate values. A CD player is a computer that deals only with 1s and 0s, yet it seems to simulate analog music quite easily.

Artificial Intelligence from the Bible
http://use rs.adelphia.net/~lilavois/Seven/bible.html

According to this site, the secret of AI can be found in the Bible. The author seems to have gone to great lengths to support his theory that some biblical metaphors, especially in the book of Revelation, represent a description of how the brain works. He makes several predictions about the internal organization of the brain based on his interpretation of the metaphors. He seems to be confident that his predictions will be confirmed in the lab. He even has an experimental program which he is using to test his hypothesis. This has been added to Artificial Intelligence Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.

Artificial Intelligence Remains Elusive

Artificial Intelligence Remains Elusive by Fred Reed of The Washington Times
http://washingtontimes.com/technology/20040421-092316-6983r.htm
Whatever happened to artificial intelligence? There was a time, a couple of decades ago, when computers were expected soon to be able to behave intelligently -- to talk to people in English, answer questions, and make complex decisions. What people really had in mind was an artificial human. HAL, the computer in the movie '2001: A Space Odyssey,' comes to mind. It didn't happen. Today, although computers have advanced phenomenally in power, we see them doing very little that reasonably could be called intelligent. We still can't talk to computers about the meaning of art or why Rome fell. Why? ... First, it's harder than many thought it would be. ... Another reason for the apparent lack of machine intelligence is that, if you know how a computer does something, it no longer seems intelligent. ... An example of what might be regarded as intelligent behavior is automated translation of language. This is done by Google, for example. ... Finally, the use in connection with computers of words such as 'memory,' 'language' and 'logic' raised expectations of potential human likeness that weren't supported by reality."

Panopticon Singularity

Panopticon Singularity 01/28/2004 02:34 PM
Charlie Stross has posted his essay for the sadly defunct Singularity ish of the Whole Earth Review, entitled "The Panopticon Singularity:"

If a panopticon singularity emerges, you'd be well advised to stay away from Massachusetts if you and your partner aren't married. Don't think about smoking a joint unless you want to see the inside of one of the labour camps where over 50% of the population sooner or later go. Don't jaywalk, chew gum in public, smoke, exceed the speed limit, stand in front of fire exit routes, or wear clothing that violates the city dress code (passed on the nod in 1892, and never repealed because everybody knew nobody would enforce it and it would take up valuable legislative time). You won't be able to watch those old DVD's of 'Friends' you copied during the naughty oughties because if you stick them in your player it'll call the copyright police on you. You'd better not spend too much time at the bar, or your insurance premiums will rocket and your boss might ask you to undergo therapy. You might be able to read a library book or play a round of a computer game, but your computer will be counting the words you read and monitoring your pulse so that it can bill you for the excitement it has delivered.

The Panopticon Singularity is an insightful rant by author Charles Stross that highlights just how close our society is to a data- and information-driven singularity. And it doesn't look like that's a good thing. Written for the recently discontinued Whole Earth Review, it is now available for all to peruse.

Can Asimovian Laws Stop the Singularity?

Can Asimovian Laws Stop the Singularity? 05/05/2004 03:25 PM
"The Singularity" is to AI what Grey Goo is nanotechnology - an arguably far-fetched disaster scenario that could destroy the human race. But unlike grey goo, some humans actually want to see the singularity arrive. Paul Gilster has written a short article in which he speculates on the possiblity that providing machines with built-in ethical laws similar to the Asimov's laws of robotics, might protect humans from the effects of the singularity. Interestingly, Vernor Vinge raised (and dismissed) the possibility that any sort of built-in rules could stop the singularity in his original 1993 paper. His reasoning was that machines built without the rules would have a competitive advantage to the builder and greed would win out over common sense.

A new CNN Technology article offers an overview of efforts by NASA's Yoseph Bar-Cohen to promote development of Electroactive Polymers (EAP) as artificial muscles. Bar-Cohen has long proposed an arm wrestling contest that pits a human against a robot arm powered by EAP muscles. He may finally be able to stage the first real contest in 2005 thanks to continuing advances in EAP. For more info, see our story from last year on Bar-Cohen's project.

Artificial Life: God and the Game

Artificial Life: God and the Game 12/02/2003 08:47 AM
The Sims 2 is on its way. The creators have added features that they think will make the game more fun such as enabling the Sims to remember events and to share those memories with one another: if a daughter sees a father kissing someone who isn't her mother, the daughter may choose to share that memory with Mom. Why was memory added to The Sims? For moral reasons? To make the simulation more accurate? Nah, just because memory-sharing makes the Sims more fun. So, here we have an artificial community designed purely as entertainment. How close does that...
