Author isaac asimov. It is a simple task for human ingenuity to look forward to a time when the machine may go out of our control all together. Robots our friends and helpers and just as intelligent as us. Ideally they would do the jobs we dont like doing but in the worst Case Scenario they would control us. If you ask them. Will the human mind one day be connected to of robots. It may sound like Science Fiction but its becoming reality scientists around the world are working on Artificial Intelligence whoever achieves the final breakthrough will become immensely wealthy and powerful be a driving working communication or war. Intelligence systems are making inroads into every aspect of our lives our machines taking over. We start with a small experiment can a machine trick us into believing its human. My colleagues are supposed to find out whether theyre communicating with a Computer Program or with a person in this case with our trainee. I enter my colleagues questions and read out the answers. Each chat takes five minutes. To the machine sometimes pretends to be human and sometimes a person pretends to be a machine i read the replies you decide which is which if im planning a holiday. With a fluke lights around the hotel for two i dont seem to children. Im not married. How many of you all are. Im just a server do you want to now its a person. Remember this nobody likes a smart alec and if you continue like this youll soon find yourself all alone. Charming. More than that im a charmer. Thats a human. Come can you dance. Yes a few standard dances how about you i like to sing did you go to adult school lets have a baby. Machine. My colleagues each get three conversations then they guess who or what they were chatting with as much. As youve. Mentioned. The real one shed. Like to know. The chat robot was able to trick my colleagues twice a coincidence or Artificial Intelligence. But Artificial Intelligence hasnt yet attained the level weve seen inside five films siri fight to the Technical University brown trike. To take. Artificial intelligence uses algorithms to control many forms of Everyday Technology such as the Voice Recognition software on our smartphones self driving cars will it said one day replace human drivers cars driven by robots can ferry passengers around the clock Autonomous Vehicles will revolutionize the Automobile Industry and streak in from the Technical University brown trike is a prototype called leoni. How much Artificial Intelligence is there and they are all of us navy loony recognizes her surroundings she interprets what she sees a most decisions on that basis leoni uses a laser scanner and sensors located around the vehicle while the prototypes being developed by a number of Major Companies are currently only allowed on the motorway. Lay only can do more she can cope with city traffic. Is she really doing all this on her own. If a loon is driving by only intervene when shes close to an edge here for example theres bushes reaching onto the roadway clearly doesnt avoid obstacles she stops when somethings blocking the lane thats not great for vehicles behind. When machines take the wheel in the future what dangers lion store for us. Very positive Vehicle Systems will be increasingly networked so well have to make sure that it cant be accessed from outside the vehicle but it falls before is that really something we can protect ourselves against intelligent hackers to interfere you can hack anything. We can build things to be quite robust in that respect the simple was good for his own. Autonomy as driving is supposed to make road traffic safer. In theory. But not so i think even twenty kilometers an hour seems fast with no human in charge and warehousing curb in a strange way at the corner its time for the human driver to take over. Its a race to bring the first Autonomous Car onto the market google has built a model with no Steering Wheel toyota and renault are aiming for twenty twenty german manufacturers are also hard at work within about ten years machines will likely be doing the driving its like that im afraid yes but it will make things a lot easier for us with the commuting is boring that something yourself driving car could do while we had tension to more interesting things got them and thomas car would also make it possible for people who currently cant drive for example due to physical limitations to become mobile company under strength and so i think and i felt so from that prospect. If it would be a blessing to die for your genes or his office you can win tons of art its not just our infrastructure that will need to adjust our laws will have to be updated to who would be liable if a self driving car caused an accident in one nine hundred forty two the first law of robotics stated that a robot may not injure a human being or through inaction allow a human being to come to harm. Today legal scholars at the university of verts park are exploring how our Legal Systems will cope with the rise of Artificial Intelligence service but there will come a point when machines are so autonomous that you could no longer hold a person responsible for it the fog robots will become an ear person some call the most electronic person will be able to sue them and claim compensation to. How well they have bank accounts. One possibility might be that manufacturers of highly complex self learning machines would have to allocate a large sum of money to their machines before selling them and another option would be to introduce some form of liability meaning that the company that manufactured the machine would bear liability for it or the for sure. There are also ethical dilemmas to consider for example if people ran onto the road. The self driving car might have to decide is it better to hit one person or five. Usually one for she loves her two or more and also a variety of factors come into play in that scenario theres our countrys own history which has resulted in a fundamental principle within our legal system that one life is worth just as much as five lives plus many people are extremely wary of the idea of having machines make life and death decisions i dont lose and so i i would. Are you in favor of having a quantification of human lives with an algorithm sent to avoid home whenever possible for me. But if it came to five against one then the five lives should be saved in favor of the one i merely finished that with. Who will live and who will die passing laws to make these decisions has always been taboo but soon it could become unavoidable. While germans tend to be wary about of powerful machines japan is more comfortable with the idea like many countries japan is confronting an aging society and they believe machines may be the answer. Japanese Prime Minister shinzo aba has even called for a robot revolution his government has pledged to invest massively in industrial and Service Sector robots over the next five years there to do the jobs that people cant or wont do. Japan already uses quite a few robots for example in this nursing home in yokohama. Carlo plays with the residents when the staff are busy. Laundering i want i want all around. The pensioners follow the robots instructions as if he were human and not a machine made of plastic glass and wires. Going to. My. Room book about welcome and i could go and get one of my notes a robot but hes like a grandson to me the star of scold me if i spend too much time chatting with him they dont want me to miss the bus but i think it became a good value that. The cuddle robot is also very popular for the. President its visits are the highlight of her week. I dont know when i passed him like this i really feel hes looking right at me you cant deny that thats what it feels like. Normally one of the nursing home staff tend to the residents if they become agitated but studies have shown the robot c. E. O. Is as soothing as a human care. And can you imagine your job being replaced fully by a robot that is doesnt like it when they connect there are many things that i mean a human can do such as expressing emotions or asking the residents what they need at the moment but only people can give real wont they. But if robots take over certain jobs like cleaning for example then humans will have more time to provide those services so in that sense i have high hopes when it comes to robots i stay because you know im not going before this. Novice sucky its home to the worlds First Robot Hotel ten humans and a hundred and eighty robots work here. At the reception desk for example they dont need sleep and theyre not interested in forming a union thats practical at least for the owner. You. Check in its tricky the receptionist only speaks japanese. In germany many people fear that huge numbers of jobs will be lost in the ai revolution is that a problem here too. For they from there are no double some say robots will take jobs away from humans but at the same time were not getting enough good people to take. Jobs in the Service Sector theyre going even more. So with that in mind i believe that introducing the robots into the Service Sector is an important and notable path breaking Development Getting up taking up a lot of bickering with the one. True he can the robot is waiting in my room it can turn the light on and on. If its in the mood. Joining. To a car. Seat. But not everyone in japan is in favor of the governments Ai Initiative one professor at tokyos National Institute of informatics believes that Artificial Intelligence will destroy masses of jobs and not just those that humans arent interested in to prove her point she and her cim are developing a highly intelligent algorithm the goal is for it to pass japans toughest University Entrance exam by twenty twenty. And the entry exams to japanese universities are very practical in their focus these tests include many tasks that Office Workers would perform and i wanted to calculate which of these tasks robots could perform better than humans adequately. Thats how ill be able to show what jobs will be done by computers but twenty thirty projectile it that you heard me. For example in an office or in the insurance industry. Doesnt believe that machines will become our equals but they can do more and more of the jobs now performed by humans that could help make us redundant. We have to realize that we cant stop the development of Ai Technology thats why we have to start thinking now about how were going to change our Educational Programs what do we have to do to shape our labor market thats important because it will determine whether ai will benefit you. Unkind and increased productivity whether unemployment will go up around the world further increasing the gap between rich and pole when you take with them. So will robots and algorithms one day replace our human workforce. Its already apparent that Artificial Intelligence becomes a factor in many jobs. We pay a visit to the German Research center for Artificial Intelligence and braman the robots being developed here are being designed to replace us but only in areas that arent hospitable to humans on mars for example the robots use cameras and sensors to gather information about their environment that data is processed by Computer Programs which decide what the robot should do next. And. This charming robot called iowa is training for the International Space station. Trunk who is director of the Robotics Innovation Center says shed be a wonderful supplement to humans. Machines on getting closer to humans theyre capable of some aspects of what we consider intelligence and they can imitate us take Image Processing for example machines can recognize and im allies images from us to them we can. Either will never have human qualities such as intuition and empathy. Some kitchen a says no robot will ever be fully are equal. To a nonscientist either looks like any other robot so what is it that makes her intelligent. Im also to the form of doing was capable of things that we would call intelligence its for example using two arms to perform a specific task like turning a wheel with a fourth book review of what was worth of food that might sound trivial but it takes a lot of math Engineering Physics and biology to convert skills like that to a technological system. New technology has already transformed modern life electricity Cars Assembly lines computers now thanks to Artificial Intelligence humans and machines will one day be networked hundreds of others none of these changes has been as radical as the one were currently facing digits of support in twenty fifteen google joined the Research Center and braman all the tech giants are keen to get a foothold in the new technologies apple i. B. M. Microsoft and google invest billions every year and to developing Artificial Intelligence. And theyre already making headlines in march two thousand and sixteen a google computer beat the World Champion in the strategy game go winning it go requires even more foresight than winning at chess it was a breakthrough that ai experts believed was still a few years in the offing what still a game here is deadly serious elsewhere ai isnt only involved in battles of strategy it will also control real weapons a prospect that has many experts worried if any Major Military power pushes ahead with ai Weapons Development autonomous weapons could become the kalashnikovs of tomorrow it will only be a matter of time until they appear in the hands of terrorists. Were paying a visit to you max in abu dhabi its a trade fair for unmanned systems. Theres already a machine gun on south koreas border that could. Honestly pull the trigger its still an exception officially there arent any autonomous weapons yet. But there are already drones and tanks that can navigate unknown terrain independently its a small step before systems could independently recognize and kill a person. Traumas q United States says that whats on display here is the precursor to a future of autonomy killer robots like i thought the degree of autonomy will grow and grow the moral tell me they have the more control were handing over backs when things get dangerous just that. Many of the systems currently operate by Remote Control but soon they could act autonomously the manufacturers still claim that humans will always have the final say some refused to be interviewed i dont think anyone will talk to me. As its an issue thats a submachine gun. The manufacture of a different system just told me a submachine gun would never be capable of acting autonomously like but thats nonsense isnt it much the submachine gun itself cant but its controlled by sensors and algorithms the sensors on the gun and size and the algorithm process the sensors information to give the final order to fire but so in a system like this youd never be able to say who your firing at to start with one of your firing at whatever is moving the system cant tell whether thats a civilian or a soldier too because thats what i was id like to learn should make it a violation of International Board to give up the subsidies for the book. Even though many countries have issued statements condemning autonomous weapons theyre working hard to develop them the United States israel south korea and china are leading the way. Next stop geneva home to one of the offices of the United Nations every six months experts meet here to discuss a ban on autonomous weapons. Ai pioneer Stuart Russell from the university of berkeley has also held an address at the meeting to warn of the dangers. Theres no we just no reason to create yet another threat to International Security we have enough of those already that lots of problems in the folgers where the code just civilian victims would be killed i mean if it was really the case that we could have wars where our robots would fight their robots and we would see whos robots win and then we would say ok all robots last so fine we will be your slaves i dont think thats going to happen what happens in war is that one country will inflict human costs on the other until those human costs are too high of a country surrenders and so if there are no soldiers there are only robots then that means the casualties will be all civilians you know if you think that isis or al qaeda is is interested in killing american civilians and trying to do it in large numbers. You know its its its not reasonable that they could launch an attack with one hundred thousand soldiers but you could imagine them launching an attack with one hundred thousand ton of his weapons Stuart Russell opposes Artificial Intelligence and weapons but in other areas hes quite enthusiastic about ai do you think that thats not a machine that is more intelligent than we are. Absolutely yes well if the machine remains completely under our control and we learn how to specify objectives so that were sure we like the result then it could be. A new golden age for humanity because we could figure out how to use the machines to address the problems that are too difficult. For us as ordinary human beings to understand. So for example climate change. Global warming. Wrestle is convinced that before this century is out here mens will develop Artificial Intelligence that is our equal. Many researchers at Oxford University agree the members of the future of Humanity Institute want to be prepared in the event that machines take over. The institute was founded by oxford professor nick bostrom but he doesnt see the prospect of super Intelligent Machines as something to be afraid of. This looks like a few symbols acknowledge we are moving towards it but it might still be quite far off but difficult to new down this track i think we will eventually retain this kind of capability the invention of machines super intelligence is the last inventions humans will have a new tonight principle we could resign them in such a way that there will actually be on our side and help human values flourish but its possible that well get it wrong. Its hard to get a big new technology right on the first attempt and this might be one of those where we only ever get one attempt a super intelligent machine with no no pity it would simply get rid of us if need be one boss john and his team want to prevent that. You know you were to be careful what you wish for and the smarter they are the better they will be actually achieving that goal but unless that goal actually captures everything that we care about. The outcome froth likely catastrophic and so i argue that we should offer to now start to invest in the research that will be needed to ensure that these systems will remain safe and controllable even eventually that advanced to human level and beyond. Nick bostrom is convinced that an Artificial Intelligence that will be our equal will be developed this century. Most people today dont give much thought to Artificial Intelligence and yet acting with foresight is one of our greatest strengths as humans thats why the great saif i author isaac asimov was confident that robots would always be our help me. Since all machines are dangerous one way or another human beings build safeguards into them. That vision has guided us since the first invention of tools and it will still hold true in the future we hope. You know max heights. Last i heard that i. Was rican johnson never gets enough i. Design style i think the highlights oh. Yes i think. When students film. Each year tens of thousands of israeli teenagers travel to poland to visit former concentration camps and memorial sites the new generation tries to come to terms with the holocaust personal way and documents that experience is one huge. Hashtags uploading holocaust lives on the field of. How to cover more than just one reality. Where i come from we have a transatlantic way of looking at things thats because my father is from germany my mother is from the United States of america and so i realized fairly early that it made sense to explain different realities. And now here at the heart of the European Union in brussels we have twenty eight different realities and so i think people are really looking for any journalist they can trust for them to make sense of this. In the back office i work at the government. However want to welcome to our highlights show im your host meghan lee bringing you the best picks of the week heres a look at whats coming up.
