WEEK 7
DIGITAL AUTOMATA
1)As defined by the avatar in the cybertwin main website it is the artificial intelligence IQ system that act on behalf of the creator to act and respond to question asked to it. The creator train the avatar on the complex task as the avatar have its own brain which is suppose to learn by experience, the avatar deal with each person individually as it build and have a separate file for each person and it can talk to thousands of people at the same time and accessed around the clock.
Cyber twin is just artificial intelligent IQ, trained to go through complex task using its advance brain learning and ability to adopt through experience. While chatting with people it build profile for each individual, it answer all questions and respond to people individually.


2) Write a one paragraph describing the Turing test and another paragraph describing an argument against the Turing Test, known as the about the Chinese room?

It’s a proposal to test a machine to know its ability to show intelligent. Alan Turing came up with this concept in 1950 in his paper “computing machinery and intelligence” as it engage the human natural language involved in a conversation with a machine and human were the judgement is about whether the speaker is a human or a machine as the judges does not see the participant in the test and eventually machines did pass the test as judges could not tell apart human from machines.

Chinese room is an experiment and argument associated by John Searle back in 1980, this experiment built to show that a symbol processing machines such as existing computers can never be described as if it have its own mind and understanding ignoring how intelligent they may look like. John Searle began his experiment with a hypothesis that even the tests like the tuning test have passed the test that does not mean its inelegancy as he described it as inelegancy require understand as without understanding there is no thinking, the tuning test only follow a software that process the symbols that look intelligent. It called the Chinese room as the language used to test it was Chinese to see if the tuning test will work with the Chinese language and if the machine can process not only words but commands that need processing such as written documents.- (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_test#The_Chinese_room)
