Q

Identify the type of AI:

Deep Blue versus Garry Kasparov was a pair of six-game chess matches between world chess champion Garry Kasparov and an IBM supercomputer called Deep Blue. The first match was played in Philadelphia in 1996 and won by Kasparov. The second was played in New York City in 1997 and won by Deep Blue. The 1997 match was the first defeat of a reigning world chess champion by a computer under tournament conditions.

Q

Identify what type of AI

Comprised of machine learning models that derive knowledge from previously -learned information, stored data, or events. Unlike reactive machines, limited memory learns from the past by observing actions or data fed to them in order to build experiential knowledge.

Q

Identify what type of AI:

Autonomous vehicles, or self-driving cars, use the principle of limited memory in that they depend on a combination of observational and pre-programmed knowledge.

A

Type II: Limited Memory

18
Q

Identify what type of AI:

Riding in a Driverless Taxi at CES 2019!

A

Type II: Limited Memory

19
Q

Identify what type of AI:

What constitutes theory of mind is decision-making ability equal to the extent of a human mind, but by machines. While there are some machines that currently exhibit humanlike capabilities (voice assistants, for instance), none are fully capable of holding conversations relative to human standards

A

Type III: Theory of mind

20
Q

Identify what type of AI:

Sophia, on the other hand, is a humanoid bot created by Hanson Robotics. What distinguishes her from previous robots is her physical likeness to a human being as well as her ability to see (image recognition) and respond to interactions with appropriate facial expressions.

A

Type III: Theory of mind

21
Q

Identify what type of AI:

Involves machines that have human-level consciousness. This form of AI is not currently in existence but would be considered the most advanced form of artificial intelligence known to man.

38
Q

True

“The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of human race. It would take off on its own, and re-design itself at an ever increasing rate. Human, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn’t compete, and would be superseded.” - Stephen Hawking

A

True
