Artificial Intelligence in the Innovation Lab

On the second floor of the Innovation Lab:

Wondering about the basics of Artificial Intelligence? Here's a great intro:

Project Debater
IBM created an AI to debate humans on complex topics. Watch the AI debate one of the world's best debaters on the subject: Should preschools be subsidized?
AI Dueter
Play the piano with a computer. The computer responds to what keys you play.
Scribbling Speech
The computer listens to what you describe and 'draws' your story.
Quick Draw
Watch the computer try to figure out what you are drawing. Try it yourself!

When first getting started with AI, you should know between the 4 main types.

Reactive Machines
- The simplest level of AI. Stores no inputs and performs no learning, but can react to input with output. An example is a program that can put a box around a human face in a picture.
Limited Memory
- An AI that stores previous data and predictions to make better future predictions. This AI is seen everywhere, from daily use to research. An example is text predictions on your phone.
Theory of Mind
- This type of AI begins to interact with the thoughts and emotions of humans and is only in its beginning stages in our world. An example of this type of AI would be Siri being able to tell if you are angry when asking for directions and offering to let someone know you are going to be late.
Self-Aware
- This AI is still in the distant future and is present only in Science Fiction. What happens when the AIs are smarter than humans and can negotiate their own futures?
