The document discusses artificial intelligence and compares modern AI capabilities to the fictional Star Trek computer. It notes that current AI systems can do more than simply answer random questions, as the Star Trek computer did. Examples are given of machine learning, neural networks, evolutionary computation and other bio-inspired algorithms that allow robots and other systems to perceive, learn and adapt their behavior. The document suggests that continued research and engineering will help create more intelligent robots and personal assistants.

2. Artificial Intelligence IS PROGRAMMING IN 2014
BTW, this is the
most important
slide, so now
relax :)
program a learning ability
protocols, GUIs numbers, pictures
heuristics optimization, learning
debugging training & testing
information data
[after discussion with Rudolf Jaksa (my colleague)]

3. PROGRAMMING A Learning Ability
can you imagine
manually
programming all
this movements?

Key point:
I have not programmed all the
movements of the robots. Not even
one. The dance evolved (using genetic
algorithm).

4. “The Star Trek computer doesn't seem that interesting.
They ask it random questions, it thinks for a while.
I think we can do better than that.”
