Intelligent Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence and Intelligent Systems

The original vision of AI was to develop intelligent artifacts with the same broad range of capabilities as we observe in humans. None of the field’s early programs achieved this lofty goal, but the tone of many seminal papers makes this motivation very clear. When we entered graduate school at Carnegie Mellon University in the mid 1970s, this aim was a central tenet of many researchers in the ...

Intelligent Assistance without Artificial Intelligence

SMILE is a multi-user software engineering environment that behaves as an intelligent assistant. SMILE presents a ‘fileless environment’, derives and transforms data to shelter users from entering redundant information, automatically invokes programming tools, and actively participates in the software development and maintenance process. Unlike other intelligent assistants, SMILE is not a rule-...

Artificial Intelligence for Artificial Artificial Intelligence

Crowdsourcing platforms such as Amazon Mechanical Turk have become popular for a wide variety of human intelligence tasks; however, quality control continues to be a significant challenge. Recently, we propose TURKONTROL, a theoretical model based on POMDPs to optimize iterative, crowdsourced workflows. However, they neither describe how to learn the model parameters, nor show its effectiveness...
