The Ameca Robot is Getting Better The Ameca robot is once again making headlines. In a video released by Engineered Arts, the humanoid robot is shown engaging in conversation. For each question posed by the human participant, the robot briefly pauses before delivering a response that mixes words with proper facial expressions. Besides, this Ameca demo uses GPT3 for conversation and translation. ____ Anyone can put on a show at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, and this year even robots were getting in on the act. One of Fringe's big shows even used a small robot to come up with jokes from audience suggestions, which were then performed by humans. The results could be very funny, but sometimes they weren't funny at all. That was part of the point, explained Piot Mirowski, the show's co-maker. "We do not use humans to show off Al, we use AI to show its limitations ( (局限性), to show human creativity on the stage." said Mirowski. Artificial Intelligence and Education On October 21st, at the New Oriental Family Education Summit Forum, Yu Minhong stated that AI is not very beneficial (有益的) for children in terms of education. Robin Lee retorted (反驳): "I think this is a misunderstanding." Yu Minhong said, anyway, if a boy writes a particularly beautiful love letter to a girl, don't believe it was written by the boy himself, it may be written by artificial intelligence. Robin Lee replied, "It depends on his ability to write key words." |
