Hey guys, Alan will learn arabic in mIRC way soon :)

i do not think that chat bots is intelligent, it only give you an automated answer, as you noticed :evil:

talking about artificial intelligence, we must define intelligence, an let me for this purpose qoute Webster's Online Dictionary:

اقتباس:1. The ability to comprehend; to understand and profit from experience.

considering this definition Alan have intelligence,

lets go on, i'll quote Encarta definition

I

اقتباس:ntelligence, term usually referring to a general mental capability to reason, solve problems, think abstractly, learn and understand new material,...

this is vague, how should we understand "to reason" here ! and "solve problems" many applications can solve many complex mathematical problems, "think abstractly" what is thinking ...

I think we use the term "intelligence" as described in Encarta, in the vague way, so we can not judge Alan unless we put the roles.

what about , desicion making. not the case many (dum) robots have the ability of desicion making like:



so what is am trying to say, that we should use the term "artificial life"

and life is what

its a code >>> DNA, needed to make copies, for this life to continue and spread

and independent energy pruduction (as in the bioligical processes)

so, viruses have code that could repeat itself, but is it a form of life,

i mean computer viruses and biological viruses,

they can not live without a host (that provide energy)

some answer that they are not, but the biological could have evolved to an independent form of life, so could computer viruses or (Alan) do so,

someone sayed
