The Hunt for A.I

Description

Mathematician Marcus du Sautoy is on a journey of discovery to find out just how close we are to creating machines that can think like human beings - and what it would mean if true artificial intelligence became a reality. In this program, the Oxford University professor attempts to communicate with robots that are developing their own private language, learns how a computer named Watson beat human contestants on the Jeopardy quiz show, and determines whether machines can be intuitive and creative.
