1. [35 marks] Alan Turing's seminal paper "Computing Machinery and Intelligence" in 1950 is considered by many to be the beginning of the study of what we now call Artificial Intelligence and researchers have been trying ever since to determine if machines are, or can be, termed intelligent. But this brings up interesting questions, such as what is intelligence and how can we test it. a. [10 marks] If you consider someone to be intelligent, what attributes do they have? Why choose these attributes? Are these attributes something we can test - why or why not? b. [10 marks] Look at some online IQ tests and discuss what they are testing. Do you feel these tests capture the essence of intelligence - why or why not? Would these tests be suitable for an Al test - why or why not? c. [10 marks] If you were going to create a test for Al, which attributes would you test for and why? Give an example of the test. d. [5 marks] Does it really matter if we consider machines to be intelligent or not-why or why not? Are there any ethical issues here? 1.
