Study Notes

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

  • AI is defined in various ways, focusing on mimicking human behavior, rationality, and thinking processes.
  • Four approaches exist: acting humanly (Turing Test), thinking humanly, acting rationally, and thinking rationally.
  • Defining intelligence is complex, even for animals, making the scope of AI interdisciplinary.
  • AI is the study and design of intelligent agents that perceive and act to maximize success.

Levels of AI

  • Weak AI: Imitates intelligence but lacks understanding or consciousness.
  • Strong AI: A theoretical AI that thinks, feels, and understands like humans.
  • Narrow AI: Designed for specific tasks, potentially exceeding human performance.
  • General AI: A hypothetical AI capable of performing any intellectual task a human can.

Turing Test

  • Proposed by Alan Turing to determine if a machine can think like a human.
  • The Imitation Game involves an interrogator distinguishing between a human and a machine through text-based communication.
  • Success in the test implies machine imitation of human behavior.

Searle's Chinese Room Argument

  • A thought experiment questioning whether AI can truly understand language.
  • Searle argues that manipulating symbols doesn't equal true understanding.
  • Passing the Turing Test doesn't necessarily imply comprehension.

EU AI Act

  • Aims to align AI systems with EU values and human rights, applicable to both suppliers and users within the EU.
  • The Act categorizes AI systems into risk levels (isolated, limited, high, acceptable) based on potential harm and likelihood.
  • High-risk AI needs more oversight and safety measures.
  • The risk framework is not entirely risk-based, requiring further development in determining high-risk systems.
  • High-risk AI will need independent control/oversight.

Risk Management Systems

  • Training and validation: Necessary for high-risk AI systems to ensure intended function.
  • Ongoing risk management: Includes risk identification, estimation, and measures.
  • Data governance and record retention: Crucial for transparency and accountability.

Human Supervision

  • Human oversight is essential for high-risk AI systems, enabling intervention.
  • AI systems operate on complex rules, requiring human supervision and interaction.

Medium-Risk AI Systems

  • Transparency is mandatory for systems interacting with people or analyzing emotional data.
  • Regulation is needed to ensure high-risk AI is not misused.
