i'm not getting a lot of responses on /g/ so i'm posting here

what are the biggest problems with AI? I don't understand AI or machine learning. How are the boundaries of AI determined?

What do you mean by "boundaries"?

what dictates the limit of a machine's knowledge? how do they process and store endless information?

Failure to understand the problems being solved, and hardware.

the term AI is thrown around a lot, and what it actually refers to in the modern parlance is pretty poorly defined. like for example Google makes a neural network that can identify porno pictures and screen them from google image searches, and they call it "AI", but whatever, who cares that you have porn pattern recognition. not AI. or IBM has "watson" go on Jeopardy and beats Ken Jennings because it has wikipedia downloaded to its hard drive and a really good search algorithm "hurr durr this is AI" but not really.

the best definition i know of with respect to AI is the turing test, or generalizations of the turing test. a turing test is basically have a person have a text-message conversation with the AI, but without telling them it's an AI and not a real person, and then let them have a discussion -- if the person doesn't realize that the thing they're talking to is not a real person, then the AI passes the turing test and it is some sort of legitimate "artificial intelligence". now keep going with that -- require the AI to do more things that pass as human, like make sounds and music and art and equations and new theories of physics and run for president and start tweeting about fake news and shit, then you've got a real AI.
