Artificial Intelligence Computational and Cognitive

Questions: 1. Should I stop waiting for the download to complete?2. Am I using right language for interaction?3. The old woman could not lift her little daughter because she was very weak. Who is weak?4. Should I slap a 2 year old child for splitting the soup over me? Why?5. Who is looking prettier between Samantha and Michel? Answers: Artificial Intelligence v/s Human Intelligence: The aim of the discussion is to identify the degree to which a computer with artificial intelligence is able to exhibit intelligent behaviour that is equivalent to a human. For the same purpose, a number of questions will be framed and explanation to determine whether the subject is a computer or human will be made. 1. As stated by Alan Turing, it is impossible for a computer to tell accurately whether to halt or not. Internet users often have to face troubles while downloading something (Turing 2014). Often we are stuck with the situation when downloading takes longer time. This situation can be easily traced by a human and the person can guide if the downloading has to be halted or not but the same advice or answer cannot be given by a computer because a computer can never inspect whether the program will halt or run forever. 2. As commented by Wenger (2014), language has more to do with personal interaction. The difficulty faced by machines to interpret particular meanings has been evident at many times. Artificial intelligence system has only to do with language processing task and not personal interaction. Thus, the difference between a humans and a machines approach can be easily evident. 3. If the question has to be answered logically and as programmed for the computers, the computer will say that the daughter is weak. However, the same question can be easily answered by a human because considering common sense of a person, the individual will be easily able to say that the old woman is weak and thus, she cannot lift the little child (Michalski et al. 2013). In case, if the child was weak, the woman could be able to lift her easily. 4. Malcolm Gladwell pointed out that computers with artificial intelligence do not have moral choices to analyse a situation and fit the rules into the fact. The question will not be answered properly by the computer with artificial intelligence (Gladwell 2012). With some vital programming the answer could be either yes or no but the reason of the answer cannot be provided by the computer. However, a human will say that it is immoral to slap a small child for such issues because it is an infant and such small issues are common. 5. It is evident that computers do not have the perception of telling whether a person is pretty or not. It completely depends on the understanding and perception of a living human to differentiate the looks or appearance between two persons. Unless the computer is programmed with the two mentioned names, getting an answer (whether correct or incorrect) is not possible (Turing 2012). However, assertion can be easily made by a human on the looks or appearance of people. Reference List: Gladwell, M., 2012.Blink: The Power of Thinking Without [thinking]. CNIB.
