Elephants don’t play chess. They don’t need to. They need to know how to forage for food, protect themselves from predators, mate and migrate. In 1990, this argument changed how the world thought of Artificial Intelligence. MIT professor Rodney Brooks said AI must interact with the physical environment and not just rely on complex (and slow) computation of symbols, the way human brains do. So, they don’t all need to play chess.
Three decades since then, AI seems to be in its summer (periods of slow funding have been called ‘AI winter’ by researchers). Between 2000 and 2019, global output for AI research grew by more than 600%, the latest ‘Nature Index 2020 Artificial Intelligence’, released last week, said. China, with a 120% jump in output, leads AI research this year. That has been complemented by technology we can use. The Nature Index placed the US at the top for AI innovation this year.
India has been the third most productive country in AI research, with over 23,000 papers. On the overall AI Index, it is at the 20th position in alist dominated by European countries. Of the top 100 research organisations Nature identified, only one Indian organisation made the cut — Anna University in Chennai.
In fact, an AI Readiness Index by UK-based consultancy Oxford Insights had in September given India a score of 100 on vision. Yet, the country was 40th on a list of 172 countries. “India, Russia and China all score near the bottom of the (Responsible Use) Sub-Index,” it said. So, it gave India a score of 31 on privacy and just 23 on transparency.
