BGGD #5 speaker Koen Vervloesem: “Will computers surpass us in the near future?”

Posted in speaker, Uncategorized by Clo Willaerts on the April 11th, 2008

artificialintelligence.jpgKoen Vervloesem is a freelance journalist and a blogger with a broad technical and scientific background, writing in Dutch and English.
He is specialised in writing about IT, science and mathematics for magazines and websites like Bits&Chips, Linux Magazine, PC-Active and Data News. He graduated in computer science (focus on natural language processing and artificial intelligence) and in philosophy (focus on logic, philosophy of mathematics and philosophy of science).

His presentation will be on artificial intelligence, one of his favourite subjects. In short, he will be talking about the problems of artificial intelligence.

  • What makes it so difficult to create a really intelligent computer, capable of doing all the things we humans do?
  • What is intelligence anyway?
  • Will computers surpass us in the near future?
  • Will we live together with computers and even have relationships with them?
