I.B.M. Takes On Jeopardy
Wednesday, April 29th, 2009
I.B.M. is making an A.I. to compete with human contestants from the “Jeopardy!” show.
The New York Times is reporting over here that I.B.M. will announce on Monday that it is in the final stages of completing this incredible artificial intelligence.
Anyone who knows a little something about artificial intelligence will understand just how hard it is to create any sort of program which can deal with human phrases. A computer can answer questions like 2 + 2 but once you phrase a question using human terms it becomes a whole lot harder.
Out of interest, I threw a couple of questions into Google. One was “what color is barack obama’s hair?” – turns out it knew. Scary stuff, queue Skynet.
