Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the intelligence of machines. The term also refers to the developing field of computer sc

ience that is responsible for creating intelligent machines. Scientists and engineers are working on computer software intended to imitate the human thought process, such as learning and reasoning. A computer can already do some things better than people, such as store information, solve numerical problems, and complete repetitive tasks. Computers have been able to perform these kinds of tasks by using algorithms, which are clearly defined sets of instructions. In contrast, AI software only presents a problem to the computer, not the steps necessary to solve the problem. The computer itself determines how to solve the problem.
AI programs contain two essential components. First, the computer program must contain a knowledge base that includes different types of information, such as facts, concepts, and theories. The second component is enabling the computer to draw inferences, which means that the computer can form a conclusion based on facts and knowledge. In this scenario, a computer with AI intelligence is presented with a problem to be solved. The computer then searches its knowledge base for specific conditions or patterns that fit the problem to be solved. This ability of AI programs to solve a problem based on facts rather than on a fixed series of steps is what mimics the thought process of a human brain.
Whether or not a computer can really think is still up for debate, even though there are numerous examples of machines that can be said to resemble human intelligence. For example, IBM developed Deep Blue, a chess-playing computer that defeated Garry Kasparov in 1997. However, even these kinds of computer programs are limited because they can only do what they have been programmed to do. Most scientists and researchers agree that machines currently lack the subtlety and range of human thought. However, as AI technology develops, more questions and debate will surely arise. The most important issue going forward is how AI technology can best serve the humans who created it.

Answer:

B. Those with moderate knowledge of technology

Explanation:

When we're writing a text or preparing a speech, we need to pay attention to whom our audience will consist of. This will allow us to adjust our language and the information we include so that we are well-understood by the audience.

When writing this article, the author probably had in mind those with moderate knowledge of technology. The article describes a very complex concept, which is why it's not aimed at someone who knows nothing about technology. However, the author put it in layman's terms. This is why we can conclude that it is not intended for developers of AI programs or those with deep knowledge of technology. The effects of human behavior are not the topic of the article, which is why those who study it are not the target audience.

This is why option B is the correct one.

Read the excerpt from an adaptation of "To Build a Fire."
daser333 [38]

Answer:

The man will realize the wisdom of the old-timer’s warning.

Explanation:

"To build a fire" is a short story by Jack London, this story is about a man who travels to the Yukon ignoring the warnings from an old-timer about the deathly Yukon winters (where temperatures can reach 40 below)

In this excerpt we can see the man saying he was safe, remembering the old-timer warning and thinking that the old-timers were "rather womanish". We can see that he thinks that the warning was not real and that he was safe and will be able to survive and deal with the subzero temperatures of the Yukon, thus, the best prediction based on this excerpt is that he will likely won't be able to continue with this streak of "safeness" and he will realize the wisdom of the old-timer's warning.
