Scientists now are trying to make machines that can think like us. Artificial Intelligence, AI has given the machine the ability to copy human’s acts. We are already using AI on our smart phones, iPads and other digital devices. The best example of this would be Siri, a voice helper created by Apple. It can recognize a user’s voice and complete actions. For example, you can tell Siri to “ call Mom” or “set a time for 10 minutes”, and it will do these things for you. In 2018, the world’s first AI news reporter was shown to the public. It had a voice, facial expressions and actions of a real man. “He” learnt from live videos by himself and could read texts as naturally as professional news reporter. According to Xinhua, “he” had become a member of its reporting team and could work 24 hours a day on its official website. Surprisingly, many people failed to discover that the news was reported by AI. AI is also making artworks. For example, a painting created by AI was sold at the price of $ 432,5000 earlier this year. This means the computer now doesn’t just follow rules, but makes some decisions and “thinks itself”. This is not the first AI artwork, just the first piece on sale. As AI is doing more for us, we can have time to do more important things. However, what if we somehow created an AI that was smarter than us? How would it act, to help us or control us? Besides, bad guys might also use AI. For example, they could use AI to create websites to steal people’s personal information. Or they could use AI programs to break into computer systems. Luckily, this is set to change. European Union plans to set up a group to create some safety rules for AI technology by carefully discussing the dangers of highly developed AI. AI technology Present situation AI _1_ that machines have the intelligence as humans do. AI is already common in our daily lives. Its _2_ AI products Feature The smart helper on digital devices (Siri by Apple) · It can recognize a user’s voice and actions. · AI can understand us when we give it orders. AI news reporter · He is similar to the human reporter in almost everything. · Many people thought _3_ the news was reported by a man. AI “_4_” Following its own thought and decisions, AI has created artworks. Possible future · AI may also _5_ to humans, if it gets smart enough to control us. · AI can be wrongly used to steal information or break into computer systems. Some rules will be created for AI using to help people stay safe. 四、在对话的空格中填上适当的单词，使对话完整正确。每空一词。 A: Hi, Li Ming. How was your three-day holiday? You must have been to somewhere interesting, right?
