Robots can't really be intelligent can they?
When the computer Deep Blue beat Gary Kasparov the world chess champion at his own game, the whole question of machine intelligence raised its head again. How does machine intelligence compare with the human form? Does it matter if machines can or cannot think in the same way as humans? For any aspect of intelligence that we can measure, is there one in which a machine will never be better than a human? How important is all this?
These questions will be discussed in a serious attempt to define just what machine intelligence is and how it compares with human intelligence. In particular, examples of intelligent robots will be considered, not only because they can directly and physically affect humans as a result of their intelligence, but also because we can both experiment on and demonstrate intelligent activity with them. A view will be propounded as to how far machine intelligence can go in the future. Are there any limits? It appears not!
