Artificial Intelligence: The Current State and the Future




What is Artificial Intelligence? What do you think of when you hear these two words? My mind instantly goes to the movie, I, Robot! It was the first movie that made me grasp the concept of AI. Essentially, AI is the concept of making gadget self-aware in some way.


Current Progress
AI has made much progress since the invention of the programmable digital computers in the 1940’s. We have numerous robots in the world doing work that was previously done by man or just impossible to do. These robots also have some sort of artificial intelligence that allows them to learn and think on their own. Apparently, robots are now completing over 80% of theassembly of a car (bitrebels). This is beyond amazing and truly shows the power of AI.

Currently, Google is working on a self-driving car that utilizes artificial intelligence. This is truly revolutionary and can truly transform society. AI is a remarkable field that enables many new inventions and there is so much more to come in the future.
                                                                                                                 

The Future of AI
While there has already been much progress in the field of artificial intelligence, there is still a great amount of progress to be made in the future. The automobile industry has already adopted AI into many things already and in the future, we are going to see smarts put into everything! We’ll see intelligent transportation, emotional computing and much more. I’m truly excited to see how AI will revolutionize the medical field in the future.

  1. Hi Sindhu!,

    I also thought of the movie Irobot when i first thought of A.I!!! I love that movie because it really represented the concept of making gadget self-aware in some way. I thought u wrote a really good blog because you added a lot of personality as well as useful information about A.I. Also thank you for including the sources because a lot of the students forget to do that. Keep up the good work.
