How to build a human.

To begin, Chan introduces the concept of Artificial Intelligence, whilst clips are shown from various sci-fi films and television series addressing similar themes, including: 'Ex Machina' (2015), 'Terminator 2: The Judgement Day' (1991), and 'Humans' (2015). Chan then meets producer Kate Walsh at prosthetics, animatronics and special make-up suppliers Milennium FX and has a silicone cast taken of her face. She then meets Professor of Philosophy Nick Bostrom, who discusses the difference between artificial and human intelligence. Chan describes a breakthrough AI diagnostic tool for cancer. She then meets Emeritus Professor Noel Sharkey and test drives the semi-autonomous Tesla Model S car. They discuss the first death in a driverless vehicle. Chan visits Engineer Will Jackson, who explains the complexities of constructing human-like robots and demonstrates word recognition technology. Chan gives a brief overview of the development of AI, whilst clips are shown of the robot “Deep Blue”, who beat a human at chess (1996), and “Watson” who famously won the US quiz show Jeopardy. IBM CTO Duncan Anderson explains ‘machine learning’ using “Watson” as an example. Jackson demonstrates the chatbot fitted in Chan’s robot replica, which is beginning to ‘machine learn’ information about Chan. Chan then records voice clips with computational linguists. She meets CEO of DeepMind Technologies Demis Hassabis, who explains how he challenged AI computers against complex games, such as Atari, chess, and the ancient Chinese board game Go. Chan then visits Writer Martin Ford at the London Gateway Dockyard, whose shipping containers are manoeuvred by complex robots. They discuss the impact of robot workers on the UK job market and economy. Chan and Bostrom discuss themes presented in ‘Open Letter on Artificial Intelligence’ (2015). Chan then explains the events that occurred after Twitter created the automated user @TayandYou. Jackson presents Chan with the “Gemmabot” prototype. They then test the finished model using the Turing Test, in which a series of journalists unknowingly interview the “Gemmabot” instead of Chan.
