It was the 1950 when Alan Turing, in the famous article &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;"&lt;a href="http://www.loebner.net/Prizef/TuringArticle.html"&gt;Computing Machinery and Intelligence&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;", asked himself (and to the entire world) this burning question. The english mathematician was convinced that it was possible to answer affermatively to the question in the case in which a "machine" (e.g. a computer or a soft-bot) was able to overcome an "imitation game" called &lt;a href="http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/turing-test/#Tur195ImiGam"&gt;Turing test&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since the 1990 it was created a prize to implement the Turing test in an international competition contest: the &lt;a href="http://www.loebner.net/Prizef/loebner-prize.html"&gt;Loebner Prize&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At this contest partecipate a set of selectioned "agents" from around the world. This year the competition will be held at the &lt;a href="http://www.rdg.ac.uk/cirg/"&gt;Reading University&lt;/a&gt; and there are six finalist systems (&lt;a href="http://alicebot.blogspot.com/"&gt;Alice&lt;/a&gt;, Ultra Hal, Brother Jerome, Elbot, Eugene Goostam and &lt;a href="http://www.jabberwacky.com/"&gt;Jabberwacky&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the fact. But the critical question is: if a "machine" will be able to fully overcome the Turing test can it be really considered as "intelligent" or, better, as "thinking"? In other words: is it the overcoming of the "imitation game" test a necessary and sufficient condition to state that a machine is able to think?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In don't think so. It's is well known, in fact, (as even &lt;a href="http://marcovarone.nova100.ilsole24ore.com/2007/07/due-chiacchiere.html"&gt;pointed out&lt;/a&gt; by Marco Varone) that there are a set of "tricks", based on the principle of "dialogue predictability" throught the extraction of keywords from text, that are easily implementable within a computer software but that do not represent a real form of machine textual comprehension.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2759923943140418081-2576449420343119968?l=rasputinlogic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://rasputinlogic.blogspot.com/feeds/2576449420343119968/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2759923943140418081&amp;postID=2576449420343119968' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2759923943140418081/posts/default/2576449420343119968'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2759923943140418081/posts/default/2576449420343119968'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://rasputinlogic.blogspot.com/2008/10/loebner-prize.html' title='Loebner Prize'/><author><name>Antonio Lieto</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2759923943140418081.post-7668863414655242905</id><published>2008-02-04T11:42:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2008-02-04T11:42:58.740-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Ontolomie</title><content type='html'>Avete mai sentito parlare di &lt;a href="http://lab.nova100.ilsole24ore.com/sensemaking" target="new"&gt;Ontolomie&lt;/a&gt;?

Si chiama &lt;a href="http://www.h-farm.it/" target="new"&gt;H-Care&lt;/a&gt;. E produce avatar. O meglio Assistenti Digitali (doppi virtuali con cui poter interagire e ai quali poter chiedere informazioni per svolgere alcuni tipi di operazioni. Ad es. fiscali).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ora: uno dei principali problemi con cui hanno a che fare i "costruttori di avatar" (tra cui quelli di H-Care) riguarda il far percepire tali artefatti come delle entità intelligenti e realmente in grado di svolgere i compiti loro assegnati. Tali assistenti virtuali, dunque, per poter essere utilizzati in situazioni concrete (ad es. per &lt;a href="http://www.ikea.com/it/it/" target="new"&gt;richieste di aiuto nei siti di e-commerce&lt;/a&gt; o per fornire informazioni sul come svolgere alcune operazioni fiscali on-line) hanno la necessità di dover sembrare, agli occhi dell'operatore umano con cui hanno a che fare, reali. O meglio: realmente "intelligenti".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A quanto pare, nonostante la strada da percorrere in questo senso sia ancora notevole, il sempre maggiore utilizzo che si sta facendo di tali "doppi virtuali" (pensiamo a  &lt;a href="http://secondlife.com/" target="new"&gt;Second Life&lt;/a&gt;), e le sempre maggiori possibilità offerte, nel settore della &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;computer science&lt;/span&gt;, dalla ricerca scientifica, stanno producendo notevoli risultati per il raggiungimento di tale obiettivo (il video che vedete qui sotto ne dà una conferma).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ci sono, dunque, (in questo come in altri settori dell'IA) dei segnali incoraggianti per la ricerca. Ad ogni modo, però, la strada che porta alla dotazione degli agenti artificiali dei famosi "&lt;a href="http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/qualia/" target="new"&gt;qualia&lt;/a&gt;" di cui parlano i filosofi (ammesso che sia percorribile) appare ancora lunga.

Why? Simply because, in comparison with a &lt;a href="http://www.google.com/" target="new"&gt;"generic" search engine&lt;/a&gt;, this engines have less document to manage.
