Robots Are Cool, but AI is the Future

Many people don’t realize that there is a difference between robotics and artificial intelligence (AI). While robots do use AI, the two fields are entirely separate. Robotics is concerned with the building of machines. These machines connect with the real world by using sensors, and they can be programmed to perform tasks. Additionally, robots usually operate independently or semi-independently. AI involves computer algorithms that can learn, perceive, problem-solve, understand human language, and use logic and/or reasoning.

To clarify, a robot can be a human-operated machine arm that is used to weld car parts. AI can, without using the Internet, debate a human opponent on complex topics. Robots carry out instructions. AI mimics human intelligence.

Robots are more a part of our everyday life than ever. They vacuum houses, build cars, perform operations, monitor homes, and assemble furniture. AI is a relatively new invention, but it will soon be a regular part of our lives. So, how will we use it?

We already do!

Virtual “helpers” on our mobile and home devices are one way in which AI has infiltrated daily life. They can operate electronics via voice command. We can ask them to turn lights and faucets on and off, lock and unlock doors, and order food, clothes, and other retail items. Or, we can have them operate smart devices so that they can open and run applications, translate foreign languages, and check email. In addition, we can use artificial intelligence to conduct a search or schedule appointments online, or to use devices to set an alarm or find directions.

Audiobooks: A Case Study

As these applications master the human language, AI will branch out into a variety of human endeavors, including the entertainment industry. Audiobooks (fiction and nonfiction narrated by authors and voiceover actors) are one of the largest-growing markets of the last three years. Once an afterthought of the publishing industry, audiobooks have become an increasingly profitable source of revenue for publishing companies. In 2018, about $940 million in audiobooks were sold—24.5 percent more than the previous year.
However, the process of creating audiobooks is laborious, tedious, and expensive. It can take a narrator several hours to read a single chapter of a book, depending upon its length. Multiply that by the number of chapters in a book, and it could take days to finish recording. Finally, the recorded audio must be edited, processed, mixed, and mastered. In the end, an audiobook can take over a month to produce. On top of that, publishers must pay everybody involved. It could cost thousands of dollars to create a final product.

AI, however, is revolutionizing the process. Every day, AI algorithms learn how to speak like real human beings. They learn new words, languages, dialects, and accents. They can mimic natural breaths and pauses. Currently, AI can duplicate English spoken by a woman from India or a man from London. All anybody would need to do to produce an audiobook is feed the text into a computer. Instead of a week to create a final product, the “performance” could take an hour or two. The editing step would be unnecessary, so the audio could go straight to mixing and processing. With AI, the whole project could be completed in a fraction of the time it would take with humans—at a fraction of the cost.
Increasing the Quality of Human Life
Reading all those books will naturally make AI smarter, and when it does, it could relieve humans from tedious chores. Cooking, cleaning, driving, shopping, teaching, and even farming could be managed by AI. Humanity could enter a time of unprecedented peace.
This will allow people the freedom to do whatever they want. Did you always want to be a mountain climber, become a novelist, explore the galaxy, study languages, or learn how to make pottery? AI could not only allow it to happen but could also be a significant factor in successfully achieving those goals. Mountain climbers could use AI to choose the best routes, novelists could use AI to help develop plots, and students could use AI to increase comprehension and fine-tune skills. And those galaxy jumpers? Of course, AI would accompany them on their trips to the stars.
There are many predictions as to when AI will become powerful enough to really take off and outperform humans in a variety of capacities. Some believe it will happen soon; others think it will take much longer. Right now, AI continues to impact human beings in a variety of positive ways, from technological innovation to economics to creativity. The prospects for the future are exciting!

Read the fable The Fox and the Stork by Aesop to complete the activity.


At one time the Fox and the Stork were on visiting terms and seemed very good friends. So the Fox invited the Stork to dinner, and for a joke put nothing before her but some soup in a very shallow dish. This the Fox could easily lap up, but the Stork could only wet the end of her long bill in it and left the meal as hungry as when she began. "I am sorry," said the Fox, "the soup is not to your liking." "Pray do not apologize," said the Stork. "I hope you will return this visit and come and dine with me soon." So a day was appointed when the Fox should visit the Stork; but when they were seated at table all that was for their dinner was contained in a very long-necked jar with a narrow mouth, in which the Fox could not insert his snout, so all he could manage to do was to lick the outside of the jar.

What is considered good or bad propaganda?

First of all, dogs are affectionate and fun companions. They will cuddle up to their owners to be petted. These loving animals are always ready for a hug or pat on the head. If they get the chance, some will even give their human friends a sloppy, wet kiss! Most dogs are playful, too. They love to chase sticks and fetch balls. According to the Humane Society, thirty nine percent of U.S. households own at least one dog. So it is no secret that dogs provide hours of enthusiastic entertainment and companionship.
Secondly, many dogs are protective of their owners. In addition to cuddling and fetching, dog lovers appreciate the protective nature of many canines. Many dogs bark to alert owners when someone comes to their home. A dog owner often feels safer just knowing he has a loyal dog willing to protect its family or alert them of danger. If barking becomes a problem, most dogs can be trained to limit annoying yapping.
Lastly, one of the best features of dogs is that they are great exercise partners. Dogs love to go on walks. Responsible pet owners understand that dogs need plenty of exercise. Daily walks can keep dogs happy and healthy. Of course, dog lovers benefit from this fitness plan, too. Having an energetic partner is great motivation to get off the couch and get moving.
1) Which conclusion is BEST supported by the information in the text?
A) Simply stated, dogs are ideal pets. They are loving, fun, protective, and energetic companions. A pet is a big responsibility, but worth it.
B) Dogs are difficult to care for. They can be costly, loud, and unruly. The best option for a pet is a quiet cat or a small hamster.
C) Dogs make people feel safe by barking at intruders. They can also help owners find their homes if they get lost on walks.
D) If they get the chance, some will even give their human friends a sloppy, wet kiss! Most dogs are playful, too.

This Mystery Rocks! By Cyntha Schlagel

1The Drifting Rocks are a strange phenomenon still unexplained by science. 2Located in Death Valley, California, the rocks sit on hot, flat ground. 3Unlike normal rocks, they have trails etched behind them as if they have traveled across the sand. 4Some trails are only a few feet. 5Some trails are over a half a mile long. 6Each trail is as baffling as the next.

7The variety of rock movement has baffled scientists for decades. 8Some rocks seem to roll as they move forward. 9Some take unexplainable routes. 10Large ones have traveled past small ones that have stayed still. 11Some scientists suggest that the rocks are pushed by wind. 12Others believe they slide on small amounts of ice or mud. 13So far, research has not confirmed any theory.
