On Artificial Intelligence



I happened upon this Artificial Intelligence display by Audi, the car company the other day at a shopping mall. I signed up for a demonstration and was given this Ipad to walk around the platform with. I was able to select the model of car and the colour that I would like to see projected on the screen as I walked by the white sensors pictured on the platform in the photo. It gave me a sense of what Artificial Intelligence is at these early stages of the technology.  I was able to see an image of the car from above, behind, even look inside it as I walked around the platform.

In other news, the weather went quite cold on the weekend, I went for a walk with my friend S, we were in our winter coats although we didn't quite need gloves!

Sounds like fun with modern technology, never seen anything like that. Okay, I never go anywhere to look! Keep warm, hug, Valerie

My intelligence is artificial so I'm very familiar with it. I would like an Alexa though. That would be fun.

It's amazing what technology can do nowadays. I mean, what else could change? I'm excited. And nervous at the same time.

That sounds like a really interesting display. the kind of thing I'd have fun with. I suppose we need to enjoy artificial intelligence while we can now before our new robot overlords learn too much and oppress us.

I am so NOT needing artificial intelligence. We need more communication with our fellow man not more machines!!! Just my 2 cents worth...which come to think of it doesn't really amount to a hill of beans :)

I am not familiar with that new technology, but if it helps people get more information, then I see no problem with it.

Technology is so amazing.
It can't be said for our weather in my part of the UK at the moment, out yesterday and I wished I'd put my thicker coat on!

All the best Jan

AI is certainly interesting! It sounds like a fun experience. I'm glad you stayed warm.
