New computer AI as smart as four year old child

I dunno, in Arma 2 those bastards were smart enough to flank me from the back and kill me....

You've got a point Arma 2 AI are smarter than I am. No where near as skilled though ;)

so how much longer until we get intelligent AIs that adapt to our games like in quake 3 except on a larger scale. For example instead of AI being scripted to act a ceritan way if a player does something unexpected they would act a certian way because that is who they are. So say you rescued Boromir in a full LOTR rpg game that didn't suck (so clearly it couldn't have a WB sticker on it) and Boromir instead of being scripted that he should do x which would affect y which would change z etc. he would do x becuase that is what he would do based on his scripted character which would then cause y and would change z, etc. I hope my example is good... also it would be awesome to talk to an inteligent learning AI, not one that says x when you say y. more like the javis from Iron Man and all these AIs put together would make the best video game AI ever seen:)

Highly misleading title.

A 4 year old has long achieved self- awareness and comes up with own ideas via abstract thinking and creativity. 

 

This computer is not as smart as a 4 year old.

I'd like to see IBM Watson take an IQ test. Guarantee it would score very high.

Doesn't Watson basically just search data bases, narrow stuff down and select the best answer? At least that's what it did on Jeopardy.

 

One search and it has all the answers.

I don't know if that can be truly done. You can give it tons of options so that it feels like it is truly thinking for itself but it will never make those decisions out of thin air. Like if you talk to something in a game. The computer will analyze what you are saying and look at keywords to see if you are angry, sad or whatever. It will then pick a response. Either to be sympathetic, hostile or helpful. Those choices might be made at random or they might be based on previous encounters. I think something like this will be the closest we will get to interacting with characters in game that is more than just one option leads to one outcome model.

To be honest all it looks like is that its had a database of knowledge installed on it. That article says it had trouble with the why questions but aced the straight out questions.

That's exactly what it does.

But I doubt it would have a hard time doing an IQ test.
