ALICE Takes Medal At AI Competition

Posted by timothy on from the more-human-than-some-people dept.

Silver and gold remain unawarded as silver requires convincing half the judges the AI program is a human, and the gold requires speech interaction rather than text. ALICE repeated as this year's bronze by scoring best among all the entries. She failed to convince half the judges she was human, so she has to stick to bronze. The event took place last Saturday at the London Science Museum."

    oooo - an automated corpse.
    I suppose you could work in some sort of tubing system into the real doll in order to heat it continually - otherwise they are cold silicone - on the site they recommend soaking them in a bath of warm water before engaging with them.
    unless you are into that necrophilia thing.
    lord knows I am. but only with dead horses.
