INTRODUCTION
Note that for many of the questions in this chapter, we give references where answers can be
found rather than writing them out—the full answers would be far too long.
1.1 What Is AI?
Exercise 1.1.#DEFA
Define in your own words: (a) intelligence, (b) artificial intelligence, (c) agent, (d) ra-
tionality, (e) logical reasoning.
a. Dictionary definitions of intelligence talk about “the capacity to acquire and apply
knowledge” or “the faculty of thought and reason” or “the ability to comprehend and
profit from experience.” These are all reasonable answers, but if we want something
quantifiable we would use something like “the ability to act successfully across a wide
range of objectives in complex environments.”
b. We define artificial intelligence as the study and construction of agent programs that
perform well in a given class of environments, for a given agent architecture; they do
the right thing. An important part of that is dealing with the uncertainty of what the
current state is, what the outcome of possible actions might be, and what is it that we
really desire.
c. We define an agent as an entity that takes action in response to percepts from an envi-
ronment.
d. We define rationality as the property of a system which does the “right thing” given
what it knows. See Section 2.2 for a more complete discussion. The basic concept is
perfect rationality; Section ?? describes the impossibility of achieving perfect rational-
ity and proposes an alternative definition.
e. We define logical reasoning as the a process of deriving new sentences from old, such
that the new sentences are necessarily true if the old ones are true. (Notice that does not
refer to any specific syntax or formal language, but it does require a well-defined notion
of truth.)
Exercise 1.1.#TURI
Read Turing’s original paper on AI (Turing, 1950). In the paper, he discusses several
objections to his proposed enterprise and his test for intelligence. Which objections still carry

weight? Are his refutations valid? Can you think of new objections arising from develop-
ments since he wrote the paper? In the paper, he predicts that, by the year 2000, a computer
will have a 30% chance of passing a five-minute Turing Test with an unskilled interrogator.
What chance do you think a computer would have today? In another 25 years?
See the solution for exercise 26.1 for some discussion of potential objections.
The probability of fooling an interrogator depends on just how unskilled the interrogator
is. A few entrants in the Loebner prize competitions have fooled judges, although if you
look at the transcripts, it looks like the judges were having fun rather than taking their job
seriously. There certainly have been examples of a chatbot or other online agent fooling
humans. For example, see the description of the Julia chatbot at www.lazytd.com/lti/
julia/. We’d say the chance today is something like 10%, with the variation depending
more on the skill of the interrogator rather than the program. In 25 years, we expect that
the entertainment industry (movies, video games, commercials) will have made sufficient
investments in artificial actors to create very credible impersonators.
Note that governments and international organizations are seriously considering rules that
require AI systems to be identified as such. In California, it is already illegal for machines to
impersonate humans in certain circumstances.
Exercise 1.1.#REFL
Are reflex actions (such as flinching from a hot stove) rational? Are they intelligent?
Yes, they are rational, because slower, deliberative actions would tend to result in more
damage to the hand. If “intelligent” means “applying knowledge” or “using thought and
reasoning” then it does not require intelligence to make a reflex action.
Exercise 1.1.#SYAI
To what extent are the following computer systems instances of artificial intelligence:
• Supermarket bar code scanners.
• Web search engines.
• Voice-activated telephone menus.
• Spelling and grammar correction features in word processing programs.
• Internet routing algorithms that respond dynamically to the state of the network.

, 4 Exercises 1 Introduction
we will discuss in Chapters 23 and 24. Search engines also use clustering techniques
analogous to those we discuss in Chapter 20. Likewise, other functionalities provided
by a search engines use intelligent techniques; for instance, the spelling corrector uses a
form of data mining based on observing users’ corrections of their own spelling errors.
On the other hand, the problem of indexing billions of web pages in a way that allows
retrieval in seconds is a problem in database design, not in artificial intelligence.
• To a limited extent. Such menus tends to use vocabularies which are very limited –
e.g. the digits, “Yes”, and “No” — and within the designers’ control, which greatly
simplifies the problem. On the other hand, the programs must deal with an uncontrolled
space of all kinds of voices and accents. Modern digital assistants like Siri and the
Google Assistant make more use of artificial intelligence techniques, but still have a
limited repetoire.
• Slightly at most. The spelling correction feature here is done by string comparison to a
fixed dictionary. The grammar correction is more sophisticated as it need to use a set of
rather complex rules reflecting the structure of natural language, but still this is a very
limited and fixed task.
The spelling correctors in search engines would be considered much more nearly
instances of AI than the Word spelling corrector are, first, because the task is much
more dynamic – search engine spelling correctors deal very effectively with proper
names, which are detected dynamically from user queries – and, second, because of the
technique used – data mining from user queries vs. string matching.
• This is borderline. There is something to be said for viewing these as intelligent agents
working in cyberspace. The task is sophisticated, the information available is partial, the
techniques are heuristic (not guaranteed optimal), and the state of the world is dynamic.
All of these are characteristic of intelligent activities. On the other hand, the task is very
far from those normally carried out in human cognition. In recent years there have been
suggestions to base more core algorithmic work on machine learning.
Exercise 1.1.#COGN
Many of the computational models of cognitive activities that have been proposed involve
quite complex mathematical operations, such as convolving an image with a Gaussian or
finding a minimum of the entropy function. Most humans (and certainly all animals) never
learn this kind of mathematics at all, almost no one learns it before college, and almost no
one can compute the convolution of a function with a Gaussian in their head. What sense
does it make to say that the “vision system” is doing this kind of mathematics, whereas the
actual person has no idea how to do it?
