When it comes to playing games like chess or solving difficult scientific challenges, computers are well ahead of us. But we have one superpower they aren’t even close to 1 : mind reading. Humans have an ability to work out the goals, desires and beliefs of others, a crucial skill that means we can 2 other people’s actions and the consequences of our own. Reading minds comes so 3 to us, though, that we often don’t think to spell out what we want. If AIs are to become truly 4 in everyday life — in the case of self-driving cars, to understand that a child might run into the road after a bouncing ball—they need to establish similar abilities. The trouble is that doing so is far harder than training a chess grandmaster, for it involves dealing with the uncertainties of human behaviour and requires flexible thinking, which AIs have typically 5 . But recent developments, including a game-playing AI that learned to cooperate with humans and AIs that can succeed at hide-and-seek, show that 6 smart machines aren’t a pipe dream. 7 , thinking about others could be a step towards a grander goal — AI with self-awareness. “If we want robots, or AI in general, to truly 8 into our lives, then we have to figure this out,” says Hod Lipson at Columbia University, New York. Psychologists refer to the ability to 9 another’s mental state as theory of mind. In humans, this capacity starts to develop at a very 10 age: by 9 months, babies understand that people’s actions are linked to their goals; between 18 months and 2 years, they start to 11 that each person’s goals can be different because we have unique desires. 12 , by the age of about 5, humans have a fairly advanced ability to guess what others are thinking. How to 13 these capabilities in machines is far from clear, though. Part of the problem is that what we describe as theory of mind is, in fact, not just one thing, but a large collection of abilities. At the simpler end of it is the capacity to understand the 14 behind actions, while at the other extreme is the kind of complicated social skills you get in a Jane Austen novel. It is important to remember, though, that the effort to teach machines theory of mind is a 15 on the path towards a deeper goal for AI and robotics research: building machines that can truly experience feelings. Whether we will ever get there remains to be seen. But perhaps, along the way, we will learn something about ourselves too. 1.A.abusing B.enhancing C.mastering D.transforming 2.A.anticipate B.control C.defend D.support 3.A.lively B.rarely C.naturally D.unexpectedly 4.A.useful B.modern C.delicate D.real 5.A.contested with B.struggled with C.engaged with D.disagreed with 6.A.financially B.socially C.physically D.culturally 7.A.For example B.On the contrary C.In summary D.What’s ... ...
