Transcript What is Intelligence

WHAT IS INTELLIGENCE?
Unit 1| Days 17-19
Standard 1: Interacting with Computers

Objective 1: Students will explain the idea of intelligence
especially as it relates to computers.

Objective 2: Students will explain what it means for a
computer to “learn.”

Objective 3: Students will discuss whether computers are
intelligent or whether they only behave intelligently.
Standard 5: Societal Impacts of Computing

Objective 1: Students will be able to identify ethical behavior
and articulate both sides of ethical topics.
–Explain positive and negative effects of technological innovations on
human culture.

Objective 3: Students are introduced to the concept of opensource software development and explore its implications.
–Describe ways in which computing enables innovation.
Journal Entry
What is intelligence?
Are computers intelligent?
–Why or why not?
Artificial intelligence (AI) has been researched for decades, and has
resulted in many useful products, but still no system that is as intelligent
as a human.
This activity explores just how we might recognize whether a system is
truly “intelligent”. It involves reasoning about what it means to be
intelligent, and even what makes us human.
The Turing Test
 A program passes The Turing Test if a person
can have a conversation with both a computer
and a person and not be able to tell which
one is the computer
An English mathematician, logician and cryptographer, Alan Turing was
responsible for breaking the Nazi Enigma code during World War II. His work
gave the Allies the edge they needed to win the war in Europe, and led to the
creation of the computer.

–Play Game
–Pick an item and see how many questions are required
–Repeat this and see if you can make it require more questions

Repeat this with another game

How intelligent is this? Would this pass the Turing Test?
The Turing Test – Passed?

Reflect – Journal Entries
 What is the distinction between a
computer’s ability to perform some
operations quickly and what it means to
“know?”
 What is context-dependant?
Reflect – Journal Entries
 The Turing test is a person checking to see
if it is talking to a computer. Can you think
of any occasions that a computer might
want to know if it is talking to another
computer or a real life person?
