Does artificial intelligence work ?
Man will never build a computer or machine with the same intelligence or reflex as the human mind. Where as a human being can make an instant decision either by thought or involuntary action [something flying into your face] a computer cannot do that without billions of calculations, analysis, and then chose the best answer. The likes of Terminator and Data [Star Trek] and other such sci-fi characters will never happen in the next 10,000 years. Similar automotons have been created but they have artificial intelligence. They are not aware of their surroundings unless it is programmed into them unlike a human being.
