Sounds of Silence
The Challenge for AI

Goal of Artificial Intelligence
The urge is to make machines more intelligent
But in the process we are doing the opposite
Why?
Because we are only storing and manipulating data
What is INTELLIGENCE?
It is not simply manipulation of data
Intelligence of human beings
Capture, associate and retrieve patterns
Examples
Signatures, face recognition, video

Why AI is difficult: Some examples
Representation of 1D, 2D, 3D data
Contrast
Reading vs writing
Listening vs speaking
Looking vs sketching
Watching vs doing
Recognition vs synthesis
Key is learning
Development of motor control is slow
Intelligent activity
Involves linking key features/concepts/ideas

Intelligence vs Information
Creating an environment for intelligent activity
Current methods do exactly the opposite
We present more data more frequently
No scope for acquiring implicit pattern behavior
Confusion between knowledge and information
Knowledge society or ignorance society
Filling up mind with data is like filling up silence
Intelligence is in capturing the sounds of silence

Significance of silence
In cartoons and string of characters
Examples of silence in speech sounds
A sufficient cue
A necessary cue

Illustrations from Speech
• Nature of speech production and perception
• Challenges in speech recognition, synthesis, and
speaker recognition
• Why they are difficult for machine and easy for
us?
• Due to our ability to capture sounds of silence
< Prev

Characteristics of Human Problem
Solving
• Computing sounds of silence
• Essentially pattern processing instead of data
processing
• Integration of local and global patterns
• Delayed decisions
• Nonuniqueness of solutions
< Prev

Architectural Features of Possible New
Models
Need to move from
• Deterministic computation to decision logic
• Sequential processing to PDP
• Set of equations to set of inequalities
• Problem solving to learning
• Data processing to multidimensional pattern
processing
< Prev

Conclusions
• Powerful computers need not solve intelligent
problems
• Finer sampling need not result in good solutions
• Two interesting problems: Video processing and
dictation machine
• The challenge is computing the sounds of silence
• Unless we watch, the technology may destroy itself
by exposing its limitations.
• Dont forget that it is always the human being is the
reference not the machine for intellectual abilities.
