We are not on the path to developing truly intelligent machines. A demystifying look at what artificial intelligence cant do. One of the most advanced and promising features of some AI-powered solutions is the ability of continuous learning from their own behavior the way we use them to solve problems or make decisions.

From there it will quickly eclipse the most gifted human mind. AI gives intelligent machines be they computers robots drones or whatever the ability to think and act in a way that previously only humans could. Computers use the brute force of their superior computational powers to find a solution to relatively simple issues but they lack the understanding perception depth and strategic complexity to have a purpose outside the one theyre programmed for.

Artificial Intelligence is About Creating Thinking Machines Popular culture leads us to think that the development of artificial intelligence means creating consciousness in machines. This is a timely important and even essential book. That fact will.

Essentially movies and television make it seem as though robots are the only reason to advance AI. The Myth of Artificial Intelligence argues that such claims are just that. We cannot use past technological developments as a basis because we have never created anything that outsources to us unknowingly or unknowingly.

When we talk about artificial intelligence some of us imagine a metal robot with face arms and legs just like a human figure and if you let yourself get away by science fiction you can even imagine a weapon embedded in its arm just about to kill everyone. AI works on inductive reasoning crunching data sets to predict outcomes. Artificial intelligence is going to destroy us save us or at the very least radically transform us.

The artificial intelligence of sci-fi dreams is a computerized or robotic sort of brain that thinks about things and understands them as humans do. The most common artificial intelligence myth feeds on our concerns that artificial neural networks will put humans out of work because they will be able to do everything better than us. Such artificial intelligence would be an artificial general intelligence AGI which means it can think about multiple different things and apply that intelligence to multiple different domains.

If you want to know about AI read this bookit shows how a supposedly futuristic reverence for Artificial Intelligence retards progress when it denigrates our most irreplaceable resource for any future progress.

Engaging clear and highly informed The Myth of Artificial Intelligence is a terrific book. From 1929 until the mid 90s the author created many lasting tropes and philosophies that would define scifi for generations but perhaps his most famous creation was the Three Laws of RoboticsConceived as a means of evolving robot stories from mere re-tellings of Frankenstein the Three Laws. We encode our biases into artificial intelligence.

Artificial intelligence will quickly overtake and outpace human intelligence This is a misconception brought about by picturing intelligence as a linear scale for example from one to 10 imagining that perhaps animals score at the lower end humans at the higher end and with super-smart machines at the top of the scale.
