Google’s AI passed the Turing test — and showed how it's broken

Google’s AI passed the Turing test — and showed how it's broken | The Future of Artificial Intelligence | Scoop.it
Alan Turing's Imitation Game has long been a benchmark for machine intelligence. But what it really measures is deception.
Juliette Decugis's insight:

In 1950, Turing designed a simple test to evaluate whether a computer possessed artificial intelligence comparable to humans; a computer must be able to pass as a human during a series of questions.

 

Today, Google's text generating deep learning models such as GPT-3 easily pass the Turing test. However, whether these models actually understand their generated output or rather excel at combining human text for specific questions stays up for debate.

 

This article points out the outdated nature of the Turing test to measure NLP advances which is now evaluated on new benchmarks. The Turing test instead raises ethical concerns for AI and its potential for deceit. 

 

It is also interesting to note that NLP models can pass as humans on specific questions but often fail when applied to questions to new domains. Far from resembling human consciousness, current AI remains very specialized and data powered. This motivates the development of new tests to understand model generalization.

AlphaGo: using machine learning to master the ancient game of Go

AlphaGo: using machine learning to master the ancient game of Go | The Future of Artificial Intelligence | Scoop.it
We are thrilled to have mastered Go and thus achieved one of the grand challenges of AI.
Juliette Decugis's insight:
In 2015, AlphaGo created by DeepMind became the first computer program to beat a professional player in the game of Go. Playing against itself, AlphaGo learned to master not only the most complex Go moves but more importantly discovered new techniques unknown to champions. AlphaGo could represent the start of the future of AI.

The Artificial Intelligence Revolution Is Coming: Are We Ready?

The Artificial Intelligence Revolution Is Coming: Are We Ready? | The Future of Artificial Intelligence | Scoop.it

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been a topic of many books and movies over the past two decades. Quite often the AI Revolution is described as Evil.


But is it? Are we ready?

Juliette Decugis's insight:
The artificial intelligence revolution is often compared to the internet revolution of the early 2000s. The internet revolution shaped and continues to shape the 21st century. It brought so many advantages to our daily lives, and shifted the political, economic and work atmospheres. Internet with its progress also brought many new dangers. In a similar way, AI can help humans immensely but is also seen as a potential threat. So are we ready?

Geoffrey Hinton, the godfather of deep learning. | The Future of Artificial Intelligence | Scoop.it
"I think we should think of AI as the intellectual equivalent of a backhoe. It will be much better than us at a lot of things" Artificial intelligence is a booming industry in 2019 with lots of new technological advancements.
Juliette Decugis's insight:
It blows my mind to think the most widely used deep learning models were developed a little less than 40 years ago. Transformers (2017) do seem to be missing on the deep learning timeline...

Also the article highlights Geoffrey Hinton's main contributions to AI: back-propagation (essential to efficiently train NN), Boltzmann machines and dropout (regularization method still widely used today).

New Leap In Artificial Intelligence May Finally Allow Robots To 'Learn'

New Leap In Artificial Intelligence May Finally Allow Robots To 'Learn' | The Future of Artificial Intelligence | Scoop.it
Developers working on 'teaching' an iCub robot how to learn new languages may have unlocked a new door to huge advances in artificial intelligence.

Via Aidan Whitehouse
Juliette Decugis's insight:
The iCub robot could learn new languages and also possibly treat the linguistic malfunctions of people with Parkinson's disease.
Aidan Whitehouse's comment, March 21, 2013 9:15 AM
The possibility of a robot being created that will have the ability to learn multiple different languages without having them programmed into them.
The creators are hoping to be able to use this technology to unlock the ability to create a true artificial neuronal network.
If enough robots are built that can truly learn, the ability would be for all of this information to be brought together in the future to create a database with the widest variety of knowledge available in the world, and would allow robots to be created that speak many different languages fluently without each one having to spend months learning the languages.
Rhys Williams's curator insight, March 22, 2013 12:45 AM

Language Is never static so it is important that AI is able to effectively learn language in an organic manor.
