Robot or human? (2024)

FAQs

What questions can't AI answer? ›

AI cannot answer questions requiring inference, a nuanced understanding of language, or a broad understanding of multiple topics. In other words, while scientists have managed to “teach” AI to pass standardized eighth-grade and even high-school science tests, it has yet to pass a college entrance exam.

Sophia imitates human gestures and facial expressions and is able to answer certain questions and to make simple conversations on predefined topics (e.g. on the weather).

According to a recent study conducted at ETH Zurich, many of these robots have better components than humans, but they are still not capable of achieving as much. However, robots are catching up in the man vs. machine race.

Robots rarely make mistakes and are more precise than human workers. They can produce a greater quantity in a short amount of time. They can work at a constant speed with no breaks, days off, or holiday time. They can perform applications with more repeatability than humans.

Self-Awareness and Consciousness. The elusive nature of true self-awareness and understanding one's thought processes remains beyond AI's current capabilities. Programs with different specialties are often stacked to give the illuision of reasoning and self-awareness, but try consciousness remains a distant horizon.

Subjective Judgment AI struggles with questions that require subjective judgment or opinion, such as matters of personal taste, ethics, or moral dilemmas. These questions often lack a single correct answer.

While there hasn't been any clear-cut explanation for why it was shut down, rumors have it that Sophia was indeed based on frameworks that mimic the human perception model and contained AI in the form of a chatbot.

The brainchild of the Hanson Robotics team, Sophia, uses a combination of AI, computer vision helping to navigate her surroundings, and speech recognition technology from Alphabet Inc. that can learn and improve itself over time.

Sophia is now a household name, with appearances on the Tonight Show and Good Morning Britain, in addition to speaking at hundreds of conferences around the world.

And AI works at speeds well beyond those of human intelligence; a machine will outperform a human at most tasks that both have been trained to complete by many orders of magnitude.

Is there any human robot in the world? ›

In January 2022 Engineered Arts Ltd gave the first public demonstration of their humanoid robot Ameca. On October 1, 2022 Tesla unveiled version 1 of their humanoid robot Optimus. In December, 2023, Tesla unveiled Optimus version 2, featuring 30% faster movement, 10kg less weight, and sensors on all 10 fingers.

We all know AI can regularly beat humans at intellectual games like chess. But now, AI has proven itself in the physical realm.

Will AI replace humans? No, AI will not replace human intelligence, as it is humans who are developing AI applications through programming and algorithms. Automation makes it easier to replace manual labour, and today, in every sector, these AI technologies are making it easier to complete complex tasks.

Computers have the ability to process far more information at a higher pace than individuals do. In the instance that the human mind can answer a mathematical problem in five minutes, artificial intelligence is capable of solving ten problems in one minute.

AI Cannot Make Moral or Ethical Decisions: AI operates based on programmed algorithms, without a sense of right or wrong. In situations requiring ethical judgement or moral decisions, AI falls short. It can't grapple with the complexities of ethical dilemmas or make value-based decisions.

Lack of creativity

AI systems are based on algorithms and mathematical models, which allow them to recognise patterns and make predictions based on large amounts of data. However, these systems are not able to create new ideas or concepts.
