>>I'd love to see Watson do any of these without pre programming.
I'd love to see a Human do anything without any kind of pre programming(I mean without giving it the knowledge and training it to use that knowledge).
If I take a tribal person from a amazon jungle who hasn't seen the outside world ever and disclose him the rules of playing chess, will he able to play as well as Gary Kasparov in a few minutes? Or if say I disclose the usage of a paint brush and paint, can he paint like Michelangelo or Da Vinci?
Each human is a self learning self programming machine.
Humans, including us can do so many things only because our brains are getting programmed with information every single moment and are being told how to act on that information.
- Ygg2 13y agoProblem with your description is that given if you take a human from jungle and leave it in New York, if he understands language he'll be able to function on at least some level. In same manner, if you take Watson and for example change format of questions (they are still asked in plain English, just rephrased) and way Daily bonus prize functions, he won't be able to function without some human coming in and tweaking it. You generally don't have to open head of a human, rewire their brains and then send them to do another task. They adapt. Autonomously. It's like if software could auto investigate sites for weather API and adapt to it, instead of having a human come and rewire API adapters.
