The Paradox of the Artificial Intelligence: Is an Infallible Machine really Intelligent?

And here we were developing the smart virtual assistant for our corporate website with natural language processing and computational semantics abilities, when it came to my mind what I read some days ago in the book Turing’s Cathedral by George Dyson about artificial intelligence and search engines…

John von Neumann and Alan Turing were the pioneers of the current digital universe but each of them in their own way. In different locations: United States, the former; United Kingdom, the latter. In different terms: von Neumann only talked about computation, whilst Turing only mentioned artificial intelligence or, to be more precise, mechanical intelligence. With different final goals: von Neumann searched how to achieve that machines could breed, whilst Turing wondered what would be required so that machines began thinking.

La parodoja de la inteligencia artificial: ¿es realmente inteligente una máquina infalible?

Y en esto que estábamos trabajando en el desarrollo del asistente virtual inteligente para nuestro sitio web corporativo con capacidades de procesamiento de lenguaje natural y semántica computacional, cuando recordaba lo que había leído hace unos días en el libro La catedral de Turing de George Dyson sobre inteligencia artificial y motores de búsqueda…

John von Neumann y Alan Turing son los padres del actual universo digital, pero cada uno a su manera. En localizaciones diferentes: Estados Unidos, el primero; Reino Unido, el segundo. En términos diferentes: von Neumann sólo hablaba de computación, mientras que Turing sólo hablaba de inteligencia artificial o, para ser más preciso, de inteligencia mecánica. Con finalidades diferentes: von Neumann buscaba cómo conseguir que las máquinas se reprodujeran, mientras que Turing se preguntaba qué haría falta para que las máquinas empezaran a pensar.

Artificial Intelligence: a Catalyst in the Innovation of Learning and Development

Last November 6th I had the chance of participating as speaker in the World People Symposium in Prague, a yearly event organized by IATA, the aim of which is to gather HR heads from several firms and organizations in the aviation industry to share best practices and become acquainted with the last trends regarding HR policies. I was invited as Taiger Marketing & Communications VP, in the workshop Innovation in Learning & Development, to explain how artificial intelligence translates source materials into personalized emotionally intelligent training.

Once again I would like to thank Jane Hoskisson and John Boggs from IATA for having given me the chance of exposing our futuristic approach regarding learning and training.

Here there is a summary of my speech:
