List of My Artificial Intelligence (AI) Papers

This is a list of all of my informal papers which relate in some way to artificial intelligence (AI). It will be updated as I post additional papers.

For a very quick introduction to AI:

• What Is AI (Artificial Intelligence)?

For an introduction to intelligent digital assistants:

• What Is an Intelligent Digital Assistant?

For a much more extended dive into AI (160 pages), but still mostly non-technical, with lots of plain-language definitions and discussion:

• Untangling the Definitions of Artificial Intelligence, Machine Intelligence, and Machine Learning

To help distinguish AI, machine intelligence, automation, and robotics:

• Is It AI or Machine Intelligence?
• How Much of Robotics Is AI?
• Is It Really AI or Just Automation?

For a zoom in on the concepts of intelligent entities, agency, and autonomy:

• Intelligent Entities: Principals, Agents, and Assistants
• What Are Autonomy and Agency?

For a hint as to how we might make a big step towards Kurzweil’s Singularity:

• Extreme AI: Closing the Loop and Opening the Spiral

For a summary of the state of the art for AI relative to achieving human-level intelligence (Strong AI):

• How Close Is AI to Human-level Intelligence Here in April 2018?
