Me, You and Artificial Intelligence, Too
Dr. Noah Schwartz, Psychology
| |
What is artificial intelligence and what does it mean in your life? Over the past 40 years, intelligent technology has slowly permeated our lives and our culture: it entertains us, answers our questions and helps us with our homework, and has been sent to explore the surface of distant planets. What is the limit of this technology? Will science fiction become reality? Will computers one day gain the right to vote? Dr. Noah Schwartz discusses the science and technology behind many of the latest developments in artificial intelligence and what it all means for us, our future, and ultimately, what it means to be human.
