RE: A.I.: Artificial Intelligence: Beginning the Delving...
Yeah, the Saudi's were idiots in that respect. That was nothing more than a natural language processing expert system with some physical outward window dressing.
I actually spent a lot of my youth doing natural language processing type stuff, making Eliza and Racter like programs. Thing Turing Test challenge type stuff.
I just shook my head at that giving citizenship. That is a good example of why I wrote this as so many people have no clue what AI actually is.
They basically gave citizenship to a recipe following bot. :)
And not a very good one.
Q: "what about the uncanny valley?"

That is a completely, hard coded answer. It sounds like a snarky answer to those who want to believe, but it gets really annoying if you are actually trying to answer that question.
Yeah that was bullshit and just showed how ignorant on the subject the Saudis actually are. Add it to the list.
