AI - Actual Intelligence

Explore the complex landscape of artificial intelligence in this thought-provoking ACCU 2017 conference talk by Fran Buontempo. Delve into the philosophical and practical implications of AI, from the quest to create sentient beings to the challenges of machine-based identity verification. Examine the components of intelligence beyond algorithms, including context, belief systems, experience, and learning. Consider the ethical implications of AI development, referencing science fiction concepts like Asimov's laws of robotics. Investigate the limitations of first-order logic and brute force approaches in achieving true intelligence. Ponder the possibility of consciousness existing in cyberspace without a physical body. Analyze the impact of AI on data collection, privacy, and business intelligence. Question the relationship between "smart" technology and genuine intelligence. Reflect on the potential consequences of automation bias and the importance of ethical AI development. Gain valuable insights into the current state and future possibilities of AI technology.
