Those who follow the technology know that most interest among computer scientists today is the development of advanced artificial intelligence. Computers are still running database programs (list of instructions) that say that if A situation happened, they should make B. In a video game it means that if the computer player sees opponent should aim with his weapon and shoot. Of course in practice the algorithms are more complex than the examples described above, but they are only algorithms - computers don't have the ability to think, reflect and understand things, they just do the instructions given by the developers.
What really excites scientists all around the world is the idea that one day we will have real intelligence in computers. That's why we weren't amazed when we found out recently that the bulk of the development budget of Microsoft invested in the study of artificial intelligence, with the immediate objective is to develop a virtual assistant who can truly understand the user. The technology already exists currently in prototype form and is in the testing phase.
The first implementation of this technology will be Cortana, virtual assistant for Windows Phone devices. What is known so far is that this assistant you can talk to a male or female voice, and that should be the first assistant who really understands and understands complex issues.
This is rather dramatic assertion given that artificial intelligence has so far only had the ability to answer simple questions such as" What is the capital of Germany" or "The clock is now in Thessaloniki" - issues where the computer does not need to understand or understand something, just to connect facts.
That means that a human will be able to ask the mobile "Why I can't get slim even though I'm dieting ," and he responds "because you do not walk enough, and you don't enter all your snacks in the program for calories"? Perhaps examples seem absurd, but according to what Microsoft talks, their researchers develop artificial intelligence that monitors and examines and understands our personal habits... The first application we saw a week ago when Microsoft boasts a smart elevators that predict that floor would like to go according to our habits and tendencies .
Referring to Cortana, virtual assistant for Windows Phone - you know that first appeared on the Nokia Lumia models in April. Other Information about Cortana are really clear is not clear which with the level of intelligence will launch the assistant, nor are the other features of Cortana. For now, most experts predict that this Windows Phone assistant should at least offer weather information , calendar control, alarm, telephone calls and contacts, i.e to offer the same basic functions as Siri from Apple.
