Artificial Intelligence -- Talking to Machines

Sharon Murphy JSP

October 1994

Abstract:

Advanced understanding of the neural networking of the brain and body lead computer scientists and engineers to begin a concerted effort to emulate the human being in the lab as an ultimate challenge to the scope of their fields. A key requirement in the quest to develop intelligent machines is to perfect communication between machine and human interactor. In order to make an artificial human integrated and approachable it must be able to comprehend and be understood not only by the scientist, but by the general public. Once this key issue has been mastered then all other processes involved in the ``humanising'' of the machine, while still not simple, are at least simplified. The Natural Language having been tackled with great success the ease of further development is enhanced and ``intelligent'' machines may fulfil their requirements to a greater extent than they might otherwise have been afforded.
