Session 6 - The intelligent piece of paper
The main objective of this session is to understand algorithms in the context of artificial intelligence.
Instuctions:
- Person 1 to announce that there is a very intelligent object in the room and it is a piece of paper.
- Mind map as many ideas as possible for why this paper may be intelligent (See Mind Map)
- Main Activity- Play noughts and crosses with one person playing the role of the ‘paper’ and only reading from L6- Intelligent Paper Algorithms Sheet, whilst another person plays as a normal ‘human’ (themselves). Can the ‘intelligient paper’ be beaten? Why/ Why not?
- Conclusions - see Activity Plan. NOTE: Although computers can sometimes look clever, they do not actually display any intelligence as they have been made by a human being.
