The idea that an artificial intelligence -powered machine one day can rise and cause damage to humanity has triggered the imagination of scientific fiction writers for decades. Some entertainment works such as the “Terminator”, “Matrix,” series and a number of Elon Musk interviews have focused on the idea that robots may not be our friends. On July 19, a news from Russia appeared that renewed this fear of some people, and spurred some dark jokes about AI -powered robots that attacked because of revenge between others. The big robot arm that was able to play against four people at the same time accidentally took things that were too far when it broke a 7-year-old boy’s finger during a friendly chess game.
This story has been proven to be very interesting considering some new claims about artificial intelligence. Some people have suggested that certain AI looks alive, including the current Google Engineer, a famous computer scientist, and many users from one of the most popular chatbot programs in the world, replica-even though, keep in mind, most experts do not agree with this belief And say us a few more decades (most -paling) of anything that approaches the true feelings of the robot.
The robot powered by AI based on the nerve network model has also been proven to display racist and sexist tendencies, increasing concerns about humanity that has the potential to instill our worst nature in our smart machine. This is because the neurological network model uses large data banks that are freely available based on internet content. As is known by anyone who has spent time online, the internet contains various opinions – not all of them can be socially accepted. Given all these claims and concerns, it is not surprising that many people are surprised to see video recordings from Moscow open that show the robot’s arm grabbed the child’s finger.
Robot broke the 7 -year -old child’s finger
One of the best young chess players in Moscow was abandoned with his fingers in the cast after the robot he played won and broke it. A telegram video shows an unnamed machine, which can play many opponents at the same time, pinning the boy’s fingers. The robot pinned the boy’s finger on the board for a few seconds before a group of observers managed to intervene and free the child. Responding to the incident, Sergey Lazarev, President of Federation Catur Moscow, said, “The robot broke the child’s finger. This, of course, bad.”
All joking, chess playing machines actually did not rise and most likely that the child did not understand-or not interested in holding on to safety regulations. Russian Chess Federation Vice President Sergey Smagin highlighted how the boy’s response to a chess robot quickly lightned and how the young man – whose name was Christopher – did not give the machine time to complete his actions fully (through guardians).
Another evidence that shows that the robot might not act because his malice is the fact that Christopher was not the only game that day – he was actually the fourth person who played, and no other opponents were victims of broken fingers. According to Lazarev, Christopher recovered well, played again the next day, completed the tournament, and volunteered to help the score. The boy’s parents were related to the local prosecutor, and it seems that there was a broad sentiment that a better security protocol should be there during the match – and, of course, the robot needs to be updated to ensure this kind of mistake does not happen again.
Chess robots have been around for many years
The idea of chess robot is actually not something new. In the 1700s, a device called Mechanical Turk was on a tour around Europe and took challenges from chess fans. As the name suggests, the Turks looked like a doll that was designed to look like a Turkish man-located on a 4 feet high cabinet. Although the exact mechanism of this device is lost from history, most experts believe that the cabinet really hides humans who control the Turkish movement.
After building a reputation in the old world, Automaton then directed his gaze to America, arriving in New York in 1826. According to History.com, some New York City Chess players, including some who were truly finished in the game, were beaten well by the machine . In addition to random New York, Turks have defeated Napoleon Bonaparte – who tried to cheat and be arrested every time. Unfortunately, the museum fire destroyed the engine in 1854, so how the Mechanical Turks were truly unknown. But not all bad news-named Turkish mechanical lives to this day through the Amazon crowd, and there is no record of Turkey that breaks the children’s fingers.
The first original engine that defeated Grandmaster Chess was IBM’s Deep Blue, who defeated Gary Kasparov in 1997. Since then, AI has only improved, and a human has not defeated computers in the large chess tournament since 2006 (through IBM).
