AI teaches children the latest world, the arrival of a robot society that supports the elderly life

Artificial intelligence (AI), which reproduces human intelligence on a computer, is considered to be the most important technology for making the world in the 21st century. Regarding AI, skepticism that "you overtake humans and put human beings into crisis" has also been discussed, but movies are talking about the future that AI will actually realize.

A scientist / person who seems to be Einstein appeared. However, clearly we can see how it differs from ordinary people.


That should be that, Einstein is a face attached to a small robot.


The movies talk about robot scientists born in the US,Dr. Ben Getszel.


Dr. Götzel is a member of AI's research team using tablets at Addis Ababa, the capital city of Ethiopia.


Its purpose is to utilize Tablet 's AI for educating children.


In developing countries in Africa there are not only a small number of teachers but also the teachers themselves are not sufficiently educated in many cases. Even in such an environment, it is the educational environment using AI that can provide sufficient education.


Here the tablet will work as a "tutor" of the students.


AI provides educational environments to children in developing countries as interactive tutors in mathematics, literature, English, biology and all other disciplines.


Of course, there will be plenty of contemporary latest technology in developed countries.


It will not be an exaggeration to say that it will lead the world, you will be able to touch Silicon Valley technology directly.



Dr. Götsel considers "AI is the technology that causes change".


Dr. Götsel tells us that "AI can produce things at a faster speed than humans".


AI has the potential to enrich human life and make it progress.


The benefits will go from young computer geeks to children in Africa, which are also in power.



AI also has the possibility of helping to change the world from only human beings to a society that can coexist with robots.


What exists there is not a murder robot that appears in the movie "Terminator" series, but a robot that supports human life.


Along with young people to become tutors AI and ... ...


A robot that helps elderly people's lives and can take care when family go out.


Due to the evolution of AI, AI exceeds human ability somewhere in the 21st centurySingularity(Technical singular point) is expected to come.


Someday it may be that the robot with AI enters people's lives, and such a day is not so distant future.


The project "YaNetu" that Dr. Götzel, who also appeared in the movie, joined the African children to provide an educational tablet with built-in education curriculum,Campaign at the cloud funding site "Indiegogo"It seems that there was also a case where it had expanded. Currently, I participate in the competition "Global Learning XPRIZE" which is considering education of the world sponsored by XPRIZE Foundation.
