Steve levy is a writer and author of many books about the computer and AI. In his essay, Levy talks about two different types of artificial intelligence (AI). First Levy talks about how robots organize warehouses. In warehouses for Gap, Staples, and Office Depot, kiva systems made this possible. These robots organize warehouses, and can deliver items to human packers as fast as six seconds (209) These robots are programed to think and react much faster than humans.
John Markoff is the author of many technology related books. In “computer wires on ‘Jeopardy.” Markoff talks about how the world of technology is getting closer to making intelligent machines that will someday replace some humans. Watson, specifically, is a “question answering machine” of a type that artificial intelligence researchers have struggled with for decades, says Markoff. Watson won two Jeopardy contest against two most famous contestants on the show. The thinking machine did answer some questions wrong. I.M.B said the reason why they mostly want to create a physician’s assistant service that will help doctors get answer questions sooner. This will also help students to know more on what to do. John Searle is a professor of the Philosophy of mind and language at the University of California, Berkelay. In Searle essay he talks about how Watson is just a computer that looked up the answers to a question and has no feelings. A computer’s effectiveness is
