AI General Conclusion
By Jackson Yang '25
AI isn’t a new idea to us, in fact, it has been put forward since the last century. People have already used AI in many different areas including their reactions to people’s behavior. For example, Siri is a quite smart AI because it can deal with many kinds of requests, and it’s becoming stronger. An AI similar to Siri possesses different abilities, the first one is that it can understand you. The ability to transfer spoken words to text is more than important for an AI since it’s annoying for people to enter what they want to do to a computer. The second ability is to react. I believe you all heard about AlphaGo Zero, which is much better than its “daddy”, AlphaGo. The difference between them is Zero can train itself by playing with itself. Because of the terrifying calculation speed of the computer, it began to have the “experience” to plan for the next several steps. Siri should be like AlphaGo as well, though it sounds surprising. The best way to improve Siri is to ask it to react to all kinds of requirements itself. Programmers aren’t able to write several lines for every question Siri encounters, instead, those lines should be written by Siri itself. That is a long way to go, but look at what we can do now. AI has already become a part of our life, though some of them aren’t as smart as people. We can ask the computer to do a repeated job by just telling Siri or Cortana, instead of writing a code in C or Java, which has been an improvement. I hope one day AI can “feel” a person’s emotion, and react properly to the detected emotion, which is something some people have no idea about.
