- Result: Consensus to delist. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 08:28, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
The talk page of this 2008 listing was tagged by SandyGeorgia as requiring a GAR; I must agree. The article has not been updated to the sufficient standard after 2010; this is especially egregious considering the massive leaps in AI over the last decade.
Thus, I'll tag it as needing an {{update}}, and nominate this for delisting as failing GA criterion 3. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 18:50, 4 July 2023 (UTC)
- I agree that this article needs huge amounts of work and updating to be at standard. Should be delisted unless someone takes that on. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 01:21, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
- agree, should be delisted. Section for 2011 is really outdated and needs a huge amount of work Artem.G (talk) 06:21, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
- Delist. Needs significant effort. If anyone steps forward to work on this article, please ping me. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 13:28, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
Cutting a section for brevity
editDon't think this section was essential to the article, and I'm getting ready to add a bunch of material about 21st century. ---- CharlesTGillingham (talk) 05:15, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
In 1968, Arthur C. Clarke and Stanley Kubrick had imagined that, by the year 2001, a machine would exist with an intelligence that matched or exceeded the capability of human beings. The character they created, HAL 9000, was based on a belief shared by many leading AI researchers that such a machine would exist by the year 2001.[1][2]
In 2001, AI founder Marvin Minsky asked "So the question is why didn't we get HAL in 2001?"[3] Minsky believed that the answer is that the central problems, like commonsense reasoning, were being neglected, while most researchers pursued things like commercial applications of neural nets or genetic algorithms. John McCarthy, on the other hand, still blamed the qualification problem.[4] For Ray Kurzweil, the issue is computer power and, using Moore's Law, he predicted that machines with human-level intelligence will appear by 2029.[5] Jeff Hawkins argued that neural net research ignores the essential properties of the human cortex, preferring simple models that have been successful at solving simple problems.[6] There were many other explanations and for each there was a corresponding research program underway.

Deep Blue and Garry Kasparov match
editUnder History of artificial intelligence#Milestones and Moore's law, we can find the following:
> The event was broadcast live over the internet and received over 74 million hits.
I think this is incorrect on two counts, at least according to the source cited, [1]http://www.research.ibm.com/deepblue/meet/html/d.3.shtml I think the event was broadcast over television rather than the Internet. The source also claims that "about 500 people" watched the event live on television in a basement theater, while it adds that
> The media attention given to Deep Blue resulted in more than three billion impressions around the world.
I am not sure how this translates into the number of viewers, but it is certainly distinct from the number given in the article. Fato39 (talk) 18:12, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
- Fixed. ---- CharlesTGillingham (talk) 23:59, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

19th century fiction
editShouldn't E. T. A. Hoffman's stories ( The Sandman (1816) and Automata (1814) ) be mentioned? Kdammers (talk) 21:08, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
- In my opinion, this article has too many fictional and mythological precursors already. CharlesTGillingham (talk) 08:44, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
AI has surpassed human intelligence in some specific fields
editWhy is it no relevant?
By 2023, generative artificial intelligence has already surpassed human intelligence in some specific areas such as the search for new proteins and strategy games.[1] 176.200.82.175 (talk) 08:33, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
References
- ^ "The scientists' appeal".
A paper by work of various university researchers ... in very narrow fields such as protein folding or strategy games, AI has surpassed human capabilities.
- I think this belongs in the article progress in artificial intelligence. This article is very long and we can only cover the most notable developments. ---- CharlesTGillingham (talk) 02:29, 17 November 2023 (UTC)
- Also, the article needs a major overhaul in the sections post-2010. This source may turn out to be useful in a rewrite. ---- CharlesTGillingham (talk) 02:29, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

Cut for brevity / lack of notability
editNone of the major overviews (Russell & Norvig, McCorduck, Crevier, Nilsson, Newquist) mention WABOT, as far as I know. ---- CharlesTGillingham (talk) 19:56, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
In Japan, Waseda University initiated the WABOT project in 1967, and in 1972 completed the WABOT-1, the world's first full-scale "intelligent" humanoid robot,[1][2] or android. Its limb control system allowed it to walk with the lower limbs, and to grip and transport objects with hands, using tactile sensors. Its vision system allowed it to measure distances and directions to objects using external receptors, artificial eyes and ears. Its conversation system allowed it to communicate with a person in Japanese, with an artificial mouth.[3][4][5]

Cut this as well for brevity. I'm under the impression that specialized hardware did not have last influence and wasn't widely used. Most work was on digital computers and the most influential work of the time (1980s) was theoretical.
A landmark publication in the field was the 1989 book Analog VLSI Implementation of Neural Systems by Carver A. Mead and Mohammed Ismail.[1]
