Robots Can Now Make You Spaghetti & Write Your Next Box Office Hit

Five artificial intelligence developments that are unnecessary, but awesome

1. You’re in a rush and want spaghetti so your stove cooks the spaghetti for you.

Moley is the first robotic kitchen. The creators of Moley reportedly announced that the AI product will cook your food at the level of a “master chef”. The first Moley prototype was showcased at Hanover Messe, an international robotics show. The robot uses recipes provided by iTunes’ extensive database of recipes. A consumer version of Moley is expected to release by the end of this year.

2. A robot named Alexa tells you jokes about baseball and gives you answers to your spelling homework. (2:30)

Alexa is a tall, cylinder, wireless speaker by Amazon that is capable of voice interaction. It can transform your place into a less manipulative version of Disney’s 1999 flick Smart House. The talking device responds directly to tasks and remembers things for you. Alexa can also do your homework .

3. You ask your watch if you look fat and it gives you a really, really, precise answer.

Smart Assist, Apple’s evolving brain child, is one of the key features in the new Apple Watch. Siri either just graduated from one of America’s insanely expensive, “acclaimed” universities or had a mind transplant. The operating system leverages machine learning techniques like Deep Neural Networks (DNN) and Long-Short Term Memory Units. Deep Neural Networks, for example, helps Apple Watch estimate functions that depend on a larger number of generally unknown inputs. This helps the Apple Watch provide you with knowledge on your personal fitness techniques and health through physical activity.

4. A computer can co-write a script to a horror film that’s a box office hit and then anticipate your worst nightmares all by analyzing some data.

Green Light Essentials allegedly produced a horror film with the help of an artificial intelligence software that surveys audience sentiment. The software developed by the film company writes scripts with actual storylines using colloquial language. The tool helped the directors of Impossible Things predict plot twists in scenario-based scenes.

5. You draw a stick figure giraffe and your phone tells you it looks like a shovel… when you know its a giraffe.

Quick, Draw! is Google’s computerized Pictionary. When you play, you’re given 20 seconds to doodle any object — Google will then guess what the object is in seconds. And Google is actually pretty accurate (in most cases), except it can’t tell the difference between a shovel, giraffe and a flamingo.
