Artificial intelligence is really becoming more and more intelligent. Forget about the artificial intelligence you see in video games. That's smart AI but not good enough because it cannot think outside that game. You give a game AI something outside the computer game, even another computer game, and the AI does nothing.
What's really scary is when artificial intelligence aquires intelligence the same way computers aquired memory and processing speed. Can you imagine a computer a million times more intelligent than you are and probably doubling that intelligence every year or sooner? That's probably the kind of AI we are going to see in the next decades.
I am not telling the computer are going to take over the world. Maybe that's pointless for them. What I think from what I read is that computers are going to take over the world in terms of intelligence and logic. Our humans brains will become obsolete. Maybe they will not make critical decisions to humanity, but the computer recommendation will probably be considered before someone important makes a decision.
What can AI do right now?
Amazon uses artificial intelligence robots to carry the ordered items from the storage to the queue. These robots are small and navigate around the storage using labels on the ground. They never crash, they never get tired and they don't complain.
Robots can also write articles just like human beings. There a site called Narrative Science which service is a robot that writes content based on numbers and facts from your spreadsheets. It says that some of the top sites on the internet already use their services.
Robots can play ping pong! Don't believe? Just Google it.
Robots can also talk to humans in the same way another huna being ca. You heard they just beaten the Turing test this year for the first time. Check out the Alice chat bot and get some company for the days you have no one to talk to.
What else will robots do in the future? While narrow intelligence robots can do just one task, such as playing games, general intelligence robots are said to be able to do any task a human being can. We are still decades away from such artificial intelligence but in the future some company (probably Google) might be able to produce the robot that makes humans obsolete.
