Artificial intelligence system passes SAT math test with average score
Washington
ARTIFICIAL Intelligence is kind of a scary concept, probably because we know that a robot smarter than us would run the numbers and be like "Humanity? Nah." But the race to create an autonomous, intelligent computer is still ongoing.
The latest potential step forward comes from the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence (AI2) in collaboration with the University of Washington, where an AI system got a fairly average score (for a high schooler) on the math section of the SAT - 500 points out of 800. That's about 49 per cent accuracy, and comes quite close to the high school senior average of 513 points.
