Well, computers can fault, they pick the most reasonable of the pre-programmed answers. 'Watson' is a fantastically programmed AI.

With enough terabytes of RAM to make one sick PC.

I just hope that 'Watson' does not become self aware.

What's Watson?

Funkduder · Posted 02-22-2011, 04:13 AM

@triple^3 I believe that that is impossible, because although I have not seen it in person, every robot has been programmed to answer a specific way towards certain inputs (such as sound or other sensor related things). Self-awareness would only be achieved by smart programmers who have no common sense.

'Watson' is an IBM Artificial Intelligence program. He is quite remarkable, one of the best AI I've ever seen. Of course, with 'Watson' that's just... elementary?

Perhaps, but growth and awareness grow in all things. Human children are little more than computers, programmed to cry when appropriate, programmed to eat when hungry, all their base instincts are completely guided by natural input parameters.

Funkduder · Posted 02-22-2011, 04:22 AM

But did he learn? Did Watson's program pick up the English Language as well as all of the other things that it currently knows or was that pre-programed? It is this question that ultimately decides whether or not Watson can even become self-aware, because the human program can learn anything and does learn everything, but then again, why don't dogs or cats or other animals. It's a questionable thingy that can span the ages until the possibilities are officially denied in public.

This is true, but perhaps 'Watson' has been forced to adhere to programming, no? A strict set of rules to prevent him from learning on his own? Then again, perhaps that is what it means to become Human... To break free of your preordained programming and become something more... Only time will tell in the case of AI.

Funkduder · Posted 02-22-2011, 04:25 AM

Indeed, good sir. Indeed time will tell.

So, what have you been up to this fine evening?

Funkduder · Posted 02-22-2011, 04:32 AM

Trying not to sleep. :P

Funkduder · Posted 02-22-2011, 05:00 AM

Failed. Falling asleep. Good night to you knights out there.
