To many, the idea of intelligent machines seems like the script of a movie like Terminator or The Matrix. However, some scientists claim that artificial intelligence comparable to human can be created approximately after 16 years. Different scientists have their own opinions about what should be this very artificial intelligence. Some see him only as a complement to the human organism, other researchers see artificial intelligence as an independent organism, developing independently. But all of them unanimously declare that humanity is waiting in this regard dramatic changes. Ray Kurtzweil said that by 2029 artificial intelligence will reach the level of humanity. And already in 2045 robots will be much smarter than humans, and more scientists support his point of view. Another researcher, Bill Hibbard, suggested that by the end of the 21st century computers had reached intellectual development of levels comparable to human abilities. Many experts do not see a reason for excessive joy in recent research in this area. While computers were able to show incredible results in any areas, most of them are designed to fulfill one specific task. At the same time, the human brain is not only processes a huge amount of information daily, but also has the ability to respond to prevailing circumstances. Despite apocalyptic scenarios, one should not assume that with the advent of artificial intelligence, humanity will cease exist. On the contrary, according to many researchers, this achievement will give people incredible opportunities. Technological horse racing (invention and implementation of wheels, electricity, etc.) in stories happened, and it was only good for humanity. AND the emergence of artificial intelligence can also give a new impetus the development of human civilization. There are other opinions in in particular, that such processes cannot lead to anything good. Some people think that smart cars will begin to destroy people, like people, in turn, destroy nature. Others believe that while improving the intelligence of machines people will slowly lose their knowledge and skills.
