They canlearn,solve problems, and think logically(逻辑地).At present, AIcan successfullyunderstand human speech, recognize(识别)human faces, operate seIf-driving cars andcompete in some game systems like playing chess. However, some people consider (认为)AI a danger to humans if it develops too quickly. A famous British scientist aIso was not for this kind of technology.Math is the basic language of AI. If students are good at math, they will be morelikely to become successful AIdesigners(设计者) in the future. We need not only brightstudents but aIso average(普通的)students.As for(对于) average students, if they getenough math skilIs,they can aIso become successful AIdesigners. Besides, a goodknowledge of computer science is aIso necessary for AIdesigning.Scientists hope to create creative(有创造力的)and emotional(有情感的) AI.Such AIcan possibly understand human Heelings or create art. Many ways and tooIs have been triedto discover this wide and exciting field. 答案： B D D C A 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
