justshuddup!: IRobot

We live in a world of intelligent technology. Technology, like man, grows and evolves. And soon, technology might someday evolve into man... and maybe conquer the world.

I'm just saying

Artificial intelligence is the development of computer systems able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence.

Our common tech only demonstrates a little of it-which, does NOT mean that they're technically dumb. It just shows that they only have enough to help us with daily work. Which means, *thank God*, that we're still far away from Terminator or IRobot scenarios.
However, we cannot deny the fact that we're getting to that. Although their interactions are still predictable,these can be good examples:

SIRI

Siri is a virtual assistant and knowledge navigator which works as an application for Apple Inc.'s iOS. She is a rudimentary form of artificial intelligence that millions of people use every day.

Siri is also being integrated into Apple's HomeKit framework so it can be used to control home automation. For example, saying "Good night Siri!" could make sure your garage is locked, lights and TVs are off, and temperature is reduced.

She can help you with everything you want her to do

...well most of the time.

Cleverbot

Cleverbot is an online AI experiment you can chat with. Though funny and light-hearted, he doesn't make much of a meaningful conversation.

Cleverbot may provide a simple back-and-forth correspondence, but should you decide to break the flow of conversation, more often than not, it gets confused and unable to provide suitable feedback.

Cycorp Cyc

Now this is weird in an awesome way. Turns out,Cycorp, a Texas-based company, is taking a radically different approach to the development of real artificial intelligence.

Cyc can not only recall the data in its databases, it can also come to knowledge-based conclusions.

This ranges from having common-sense knowledge (pigs can’t fly), to behaviorally conditioned responses (knowing how to recognize and, thus, interact differently with a nervous or a confused user). All these conditions are “taught” to Cyc as its knowledge base expands, enabling it to communicate on an almost human level.(!)

Robots

Robots are more physical examples of artificial intelligence. Most take a form of animals and humans and act like them too. But still, they are programmed mostly for industrial, educational, and entertainment purposes.
