Our ultimate objective is to make programs that learn from their experience as effectively as humans do. We shall...say that a program has common sense if it automatically deduces for itself a sufficient wide class of immediate consequences of anything it is told and what it already knows

Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.

Claude Shannon

I visualize a time when we will be to robots what dogs are to humans, and I'm rooting for the machines.

Artificial intelligence is that field of computer usage which attempts to construct computational mechanisms for activities that are considered to require intelligence when performed by humans.

AI is about making machines more fathomable and more under the control of human beings, not less. Conventional technology has indeed been making our environment more complex and more incomprehensible, and if it continues as it is doing now the only conceivable outcome is disaster.

Herbert Simon

Machines will be capable, within twenty years, of doing any work that a man can do.

Artificial intelligence is the mimicking of human thought and cognitive processes to solve complex problems.

Daniel Crevier

AI has never been a monolithic science; by the mid-1970s, the diverging interests of its pioneers were giving birth to recognizable specialties.

Artificial Intelligence: the art of making computers that behave like the ones in movies.

artificial intelligence


Alan Kay

Some people worry that artificial intelligence will make us feel inferior, but then, anybody in his right mind should have an inferiority complex every time he looks at a flower

Supercomputers will achieve one human brain capacity by 2010, and personal computerswilldosobyabout2020.

artificial intelligence


Michio Kaku

By 2100, our destiny is to become like the gods we once worshipped and feared. But our tools will not be magic wands and potions but the science of computers, nanotechnology, artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and most of all, the quantum theory.

artificial intelligence


Edsger W. Dijkstra

The question of whether computers can think is like the question of whether submarines can swim.

To be human is to be 'a' human, a specific person with a life history and idiosyncrasy and point of view; artificial intelligence suggest that the line between intelligent machines and people blurs mostwhenapureeismadeofthatidentity.

Maybe the only significant difference between a really smart simulation and a human beingwasthenoisetheymadewhenyoupunchedthem.

I think they are a better race than humans ever were.

Eliezer Yudkowsky

The AI does not hate you, nor does it love you, but you are made out of atoms which it can use for something else.
