    Any programmer who thinks that we are going to reach the human intelligence by if switchs elses for loops, is either crazy or has inhaled a pound of cocaine

        Have you ever studied AI? Just curious. In all likely hood you are just a troll and will now get voted down to oblivion. Have fun.

        Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet.

                    Because as we all know, fields never improve and never become more advanced. We still use the exact same technology we used at the dawn of time, and nothing thought to be previously impossible has ever been achieved.

                        It would crazy to think that someone could inhale a pound of cocaine and not perform if switchs elses for loops. Just saying...

                              I think you are right. Programming is about procedures to solve problems, effectively. One can only program as many solutions as the programmer can think of. But true intelligence is the ability to solve NEW problems. Therefore traditional programming canot achieve that.

                                  That's why it's called artificial. I think we can simulate intelligence. Computers can make logical conclusions based on how they're programmed but to make independent reasoning and become truly intelligent and self-aware is questionable. We don't even know what that really means anyway.

                                    Factually you may be correct in your assertions; however, I have no doubt that, at some point in the future, we will have some form of AI. What that form will take or how it will be achieved I have no idea but you are probably correct that it won't involve VB. :)

                                          This is a huge topic as you really need to define what you mean by human intelligence first. If you mean conciousness then yes there is an issue - philosophers for thousands of years have been trying to figure out what conciousness is, we still seem to be none the wiser. If by intelligence you mean the ability to make decisions quickly, accurately and learn from mistakes then I would say that AI is pretty darn good! A couple of examples (one from my own experience): - I have used SAPI for voice recognition in speech recognition software[^] I have written and the accuracy is fairly amazing. SAPI will learn from mistakes and the more it is used the better it becomes at word recognition. - I also believe that the google driverless car[^] is going to be quite something. So all in all I think AI really is doing very well - if you leave out the 'conciousness' part which has puzzled even some of the most insightful Buddhist monks who have spent years in caves studying their own minds through meditation... I am guessing though that you have something specific in mind.

                                          “That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.”
