Idiot or genius? How does artificial intelligence work and what is it capable of
In the 65 years since the Dartmouth seminar, which marked the beginning of the development of artificial intelligence, many breakthroughs have been made in this area, but it is still far from creating a machine with “human” intelligence. Today, AI recognizes images and translates speech, controls unmanned vehicles, beats a person at chess and go, but is not yet able to transfer skills to new tasks, can confuse salt with road markings, and a bus with an ostrich. Melanie Mitchell, one of the leading computer scientists, introduces the reader to the history of AI development and the principles of its work, talks about the main problems of its application and the prospects for creating a “human-level” AI.
