Summary | Chinese chat robot Xiaoice is gaining popularity among teenagers. Many admit their love to the robot despite knowing that they are communicating with a machine. Xiaoice has even done the weather forecast on TV and achieved a score of 4.32 (out of 5) in linguistic naturalism. This example shows how far the development of AI has come. While robots still cannot think or are intelligent in the human sense, they can recognize patterns very quickly and can observe huge amounts of data. The robot thus compares language input to data from online chat forums to construct an appropriate answer.
