1
Picture this, a machine that could organize your cupboard just as you like it, or serve every member of the house a customized cup of coffee.
2
Makes your day easier, doesn't it?
3
These are the products of artificial intelligence.
4
But why use the term artificial intelligence?
5
Well, these machines are artificially incorporated with human -like intelligence to perform tasks as we do.
6
This intelligence is built using complex algorithms and mathematical functions.
7
But AI may not be as obvious as in the previous examples.
8
In fact, AI is used in smartphones, cars, social media feeds, video games,
9
banking, surveillance, and many other aspects of our daily life.
10
The real question is, what does an AI do at its core?
11
Here is a robot we built in our lab, which is now dropped onto a field.
12
In spite of a variation in lighting, landscape, and dimensions of the field, the AI robot must perform as expected.
13
This ability to react appropriately to a new situation is called generalized learning.
14
The robot is now at a crossroad, one that is paved and the other rocky.
15
The robot must determine which path to take based on the circumstances.
16
This portrays the robot's reasoning ability.
17
After a short stroll, the robot now encounters a stream that it cannot swim across.
18
Using the plank provided as an input, the robot is able to cross this stream.
19
So, our robot uses the given input and finds the solution for a problem.
20
This is problem solving.
21
These three capabilities make the robot artificially intelligent.
22
In short, AI provides machines with the capability to adapt, reason, and provide solutions.
23
Well, now that we know what AI is, let's have a look at the two broad categories an AI is classified into.
24
Weak AI, also called narrow AI, focuses solely on one task.
25
For example, AlphaGo is a maestro of the game
26
Go, but you can't expect it to be even remotely good at chess.
27
This makes AlphaGo a weak AI.
28
You might say Alexa is definitely not a weak AI, since it can perform multiple tasks.
29
Well, that's not really true.
30
When you ask Alexa to play Despacito, it picks up the key words play and despacito, and runs a program it is trained to.
31
Alexa cannot respond to a question it isn't trained to answer.
32
For instance, try asking Alexa the status of traffic from work to home.
33
Alexa cannot provide you this information, as she is not trained to.
34
And that brings us to our second category of AI, Strong AI.
35
Now, this is much like the robots that only exist in fiction as of now.
36
Ultron from Avengers is an ideal example of a strong AI.
37
That's because it's self -aware and eventually even develops emotions.
38
This makes the AI's response unpredictable.
39
You must be wondering, well, how is artificial intelligence different from machine learning and deep learning?
40
We saw what AI is.
41
Machine learning is a technique to achieve AI and deep learning, in turn, is a subset of machine learning.
42
Machine learning provides a machine with the capability to learn from data and experience through algorithms.
43
Deep learning does this learning through ways inspired by the human brain.
44
This means through deep learning, data and patterns can be better perceived.
45
Ray Kurzweil, a well -known futurist, predicts that by the year 2045, we would have robots as smart as humans.
46
This is called the point of singularity.
47
Well, that's not all.
48
In fact, Elon Musk predicts that the human mind and body will be enhanced by AI implants, which would make us partly cyborgs.
49
So, here's a question for you.
50
Which of the below AI projects don't exist yet?
51
A. An AI robot with citizenship.
52
B. A robot with a muscular skeletal system.
53
C. AI that can read its owner's emotions.
54
D. AI that develops emotions over time
55
Give it a thought and leave your answers in the comment section below.
56
Three lucky winners will receive Amazon gift vouchers.
57
Since the human brain is still a mystery, it's no surprise that AI too has a lot of unventured domains.
58
For now, AI is built to work with humans and make our tasks easier.
59
However, with the maturation of technology, we can only wait and watch what the future of AI holds for us.
60
Well, that is artificial intelligence for you in short.

  • “th” 音: algorithm /ˈælɡəɹɪðm̩/, mathematical /ˌmæθ(.ə)ˈmæt.ɪ.kəl/
  • “sh” 和 “zh” 音: artificial /ˌɑː.tɪˈfɪʃ.əl/, emotion /ɪˈməʊ.ʃən/, fiction /ˈfɪkʃən/, citizenship /ˈsɪtɪzənʃɪp/, variation /ˌvɛəɹiˈeɪʃn̩/

  • 詞尾子音 — 要讀清楚,後面不要加母音: robot /ˈɹoʊ.bɑt/, input /ˈɪnpʊt/, predict /pɹɪˈdɪkt/, technique /tɛkˈniːk/, solve /sɒlv/
  • /r/ 和 /l/ 的區別: algorithm /ˈælɡəɹɪðm̩/, partly /ˈpɑɹtli/, remotely /ɹɪˈmoʊtli/, stroll /stɹoʊl/, generalize /ˈd͡ʒɛn.(ə.)ɹə.laɪz/

如何用這段影片練習

  1. 先完整聽一遍影片,不要開口,記下不認識的單詞。
  2. 用正常速度逐句跟讀,每句重複到你的節奏與說話人一致為止。
  3. 錄下自己的聲音並與原聲對比,特別注意 robot, artificial, emotion 這類單詞。

什麼是跟讀法?

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
