[[Image:Hgcfjy.jpg|right|thumb|ASIMO is a humanoid robot created by Honda. Standing at 130 centimeters and weighing 54 kilograms, the robot resembles a small astronaut wearing a backpack and can walk on two feet in a manner resembling human locomotion at up to 6 km/h. ASIMO was created at Honda's Research & Development Wako Fundamental Technical Research Center in Japan.]]

'''Artificial intelligence''' or AI is a computer-based simulation of the human thought process. It is a common feature in [[science-fiction]], but as yet no true AI (IE, one capable of passing the [[Turing Test]]) has been created, and only very limited progress has been made on such simple subcomponents as facial recognition or beating world champion chess players at chess.

Many philosophers, including [[John Searle]], have advanced the view that artificial intelligence is an impossible goal. The main argument is that it would be impossible for a machine, a creation of man, to ever acheive actual understanding and comprehension of either language or the world around it, as it is simply a set of rules which process symbolic information. <ref>http://www.iep.utm.edu/c/chineser.htm</ref> This is a self-evident truth to any non-atheist, as a machine is simply a metal object. To claim that metal can or could thing is patently rediculous.
