Talk:Artificial Intelligence/Definition

A little too quick
Computer Programming/AI presented the four points a bit differently.


 * Artificial Intelligence is a subfield of Computer Science that deals with the creation of systems that exhibit "intelligence", for varying definitions of intelligence. There are four generally cited standpoints on what an intelligent system should do: think rationally, act rationally, think like a human, or act like a human.


 * Each one of these views has wide-ranging implications for the development of intelligent systems. The oft-cited Turing Test assumes the fourth standpoint, that a system that acts sufficiently human can be called intelligent, but many current researchers take a stance more like the second -- if a system produces rational, useful behavior, then it is certainly more intelligent than one that does not.

This page should break down the points before applying them to the definition it's constructing. --Mrwojo (talk) 04:18, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
