Is there any artificial intelligence that possesses "concentration"?
Humans can do multiple tasks at the same (e.g. reading while listening to music), but we memorize information from less focused sources with worse efficiency than we do from our main focus or task.
Do such things exist in the case of artificial…

How close are we to creating Ex Machina?
Are there any research teams that attempted to create or have already created an AI robot that can be as close to intelligent as these found in Ex Machina or I, Robot movies?
I'm not talking about full awareness, but an artificial being that can…

Why is the derivative of the activation functions in neural networks important?
I'm new to NN. I am trying to understand some of its foundations. One question that I have is: why the derivative of an activation function is important (not the function itself), and why it's the derivative which is tied to how the network performs…

Are there any AI that have passed the MIST test so far?
MIST is a quantiative test of humanness, consisting of ~80k propositions such as:
Is Earth a planet?
Is the sun bigger than my foot?
Do people sometimes lie?
etc.
Have any AI attempted and passed this test to date?

Does the Chinese Room argument hold against AI?
Back in college, I had a Complexity Theory teacher who stated that artificial intelligence was a contradiction in terms. If it could be calculated mechanically, he argued, it wasn't intelligence, it was math.
This seems to be a variant of the…

What is a recurrent neural network?
Surprisingly, this wasn't asked before - at least I didn't find anything besides some vaguely related questions.
So, what is a recurrent neural network, and what are their advantages over regular (or feed-forward) neural networks?

What are the purposes of autoencoders?
Autoencoders are neural networks that learn a compressed representation of the input in order to later reconstruct it, so they can be used for dimensionality reduction. They are composed of an encoder and a decoder (which can be separate neural…

Are methods of exhaustive search considered to be AI?
Some programs do exhaustive searches for a solution while others do heuristic searches for a similar answer. For example, in chess, the search for the best next move tends to be more exhaustive in nature whereas, in Go, the search for the best next…
