So Shane Legg and Marcus Hutter at the Swiss Institute for Artificial Intelligence in Manno-Lugano have drafted an alternative test that will allow the intelligence of vision systems, robots, natural language processing programs or trading agents to be compared and contrasted despite their broad and disparate functions. <br> <br>For more information, please visit: <br><a href="http://www.newscientist.com/channel/info-tech/mg18725125.800 " target="blank">www.newscientist.com/channel/info-tech/mg18725125.800 </a> <br></font></td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show
