Youngblood part 3


In Youngblood he goes to compare human intelligence with computer intelligence. It just so happens Jeopardy this week IBM's "Watson" will be competing for the first time against the two smartest human contestants. "There is a real possibility that we may one day be able to design a machine that is more intelligent than ourselves." (Southerland p. 187). It also brings up the interesting fact that if we design a computer more intelligent then man, then in turn would that machine create one more intelligent then itself? We use computers to run our lives from shopping, traffic lights, home use, vehicles, money, travel, and more.
