Document Summary
1961 bell labs computer could sing daisy. Narrow ai (assist us) and general ai (exceeds us) Narrow does not match or exceed humans, it is specialized, it is extremely intelligent in a very narrow way. First programmable device, about the size of the room and weighed tons. You have to program every possible move. Might be very intelligent but in a very narrow way: intelligence tests (starting in the 30"s and 40"s, how do we know when something has become intelligent?) Turing test (1950, first intelligence test, cybernetics norbert weiner) Drinking game, changed it to apply to the computer, ask questions to a computer and ask questions to a human, when you can"t tell the difference between who is answering, than it has become intelligent. Programmed to look for key words and respond based. Draws user into certain patterns, it is easily fooled. All these tests prove intelligence but not consciousness: top down ai.
