AI and Us - what Artificial Intelligence means for our lives vor 4 Jahren

An AI that is so like us that we can’t tell it apart from a human
being is a scary thought. The idea is sinister, but a long way
from reality. At least, at the moment. Because today’s AI still
has problems holding a targeted conversation. Even when AI is
embedded in an artificial body it lacks the emotions and
knowledge of the world to be able to behave as we do. Christian
Becker-Asano, Martin Butz and Milica Gašić explain exactly what
will always probably make artificial intelligence different from
us.

The Alexander von Humboldt Foundation

Every year, the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation enables more
than 2,000 researchers from all over the world to spend time
conducting research in Germany. The Foundation maintains a
network of well over 30,000 Humboldtians from all disciplines in
more than 140 countries worldwide – including 57 Nobel Laureates.

As part of the German government’s Artificial Intelligence
Strategy, the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation can appoint a
total of 30 Alexander von Humboldt Professors for Artificial
Intelligence in the years up to 2024. These chairs are
contributing to work being done to comprehensively investigate
the opportunities AI offers for our future and to make use of
them. They will also help strengthen Germany’s standing as an
internationally attractive and influential location in this
important field.
