I was looking into the Alan Turing and his Turing test as he proposed and reading some books. I feel skeptical regarding the fact that we have even reached at the level of Artificial Intelligence. It feels like we have not created a Turing machine yet.
well I am a computer science student and AI is quite trending subsection of CS so I wanna be really educated so that I don’t get fooled by tech bros
Pay attention to your professors, then. I guess they’re about to teach you what a Turing machine is. And what “AI” is, though from my experience, that term isn’t thrown around in CS nearly as much. It’s kind of a buzzword, and intelligence is ill-defined… Instead you’d get a lecture on machine learning, or deep learning or whatever. And you’ll get a headache from all the maths and statistics required to do machine learning. It’s not all that hard. But it can get involved. There’s also a fascinating history to learn. “AI” didn’t always mean ChatGPT.
