những gì các hình ảnh dưới đây cho thấy và nơi bạn có thể nhìn thấy những điều này.)
Gợi ý trả lời:
a. a voice recognition application which can be seen in smartphones, tablets and other electronic devices
b. a device using the GPS (Global Positioning System): a space-based navigation system that provides
location information in all weather conditions, anywhere on or near the Earth, and can be seen in
advanced means of transport
c. a medical robot which can be seen in technologically advanced hospitals
d. an automated bomb disposal robot which is used by the military
2 Read the following text about some A.I. applications and circle the correct answers. There may
be more than one correct answer to some questions. (Đọc văn bản sau đây về một số ứng dụng A.I.
và khoanh tròn câu trả lời đúng. Có thể có nhiều câu trả lời đúng cho một số câu hỏi.)
A.I. or artificial intelligence is the intelligence displayed by machines or software.
Many industries today use highly automated vehicles that can drive with almost no human intervention.
Smart robots have replaced humans in stressful and dangerous jobs, and in assembly lines doing tasks
such as packing and lifting heavy things.
In science and medicine, A.I. techniques help medical doctors to discover subtle interactions between
medications that put patients at risk because of their serious side effects. Patients at highest risk of
complications are also detected based on these techniques.
In navigation, devices using the GPS (Global Positioning System) help drivers or pilots to find the best
routes to their destination by avoiding obstacles, traffic jams, and accidents.
In military, A.I. robots are used to explore dangerous environments containing explosives or
contaminated by nuclear weapons.
In communication, the voice recognition systems in smartphones or other electronic devices can identify
our speech, and are getting better at understanding our intentions. A.I. algorithms can also help to detect
faces and other features in photos sent to social networking sites and automatically organise them.
Internet search engines such as Google and Bing provide hundreds of millions of people with search
results related to weather, traffic predictions, book recommendations, educational institutions, music,
films, and games. A.I. applications on the Internet can translate web pages in real time, and even help
users to learn new languages.
Many A.I. experts believe that A.I. technology will soon make even greater advances in many other
areas. Modern robots will be more intelligent and replace humans in many dangerous jobs and
environments. This will certainly improve our lives in the near future.
