Artificial Intelligence in Media

Artificial Intelligence can significantly contribute to the plot in films, television series, and video games. In the film Infinity Chamber, the narrative pivots around an artificial intelligence machine that oversees a high-tech detention facility. Similarly, in the podcast series Voyage to the Stars, a ship's AI is central to the plot's progression.

Artificial intelligence also plays a crucial role in television series such as The 100, where a powerful AI named A.L.I.E contributes to the destruction of the world. Moreover, AI features prominently in indie games like Digital: A Love Story, where the storyline is centered around the mysterious deaths of multiple AI's, and the novel Boomeritis, where AI and the concept of transhumanism are explored.

Artificial Intelligence in Academia and Organizations

Universities and organizations across the globe have extensive research programs dedicated to artificial intelligence. Institutions like the University of Houston operate several research centers and institutes focusing on artificial intelligence and other related domains. Figures like Fei-Fei Li, known for co-founding AI4ALL and her expertise in artificial intelligence, and Elaine Rich, renowned for her research on artificial intelligence, contribute to the academic perspective in the AI field.

Many institutes collaborate with industries to promote AI research, such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, which announced the creation of the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab. Organizations like the Confederation of Laboratories for Artificial Intelligence Research in Europe (CLAIRE) aim to strengthen AI research and innovation.

Artificial Intelligence and Technological Development

Artificial Intelligence is an integral part of technological development and acts as an element of several scientific theories and postulates. AI ties in with concepts like self-organization, systems thinking, and feedback, which are pivotal in fields such as evolutionary computation, genetic programming, machine learning, and evolutionary developmental biology.

Forecasts about technological singularity engage deeply with the idea of AI surpassing human cognitive limitations. Furthermore, AI is central to the development of modern technologies like voice assistants and autonomous vehicles, as noted by the discussion on the Crowdsource (app) article.

Artificial Intelligence in Video Games

Artificial intelligence contributes significantly to the video game industry, enhancing the gameplay experience and providing challenging virtual environments for players. In games such as FooBillard, AI is used to simulate the physics environment and a computer opponent. Similarly, in Iron Man 2, AI is incorporated to improve flight control, melee combat, and enemy design.

In Act of Aggression, AI is used not only in single-player mode, but also in competitive and co-operative multiplayer modes, enhancing the overall gaming experience. Other games such as Super Sidekicks 3: The Next Glory, Virtual Pool, Power Spikes II, and Warrior Kings: Battles, leverage AI to elevate the standard of gameplay and promote a more engaging player experience.
