A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots differently spaced.

Her gaze returns ; she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world?Or do n ewbor ns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experime nt,but with three spots show n before two, shows the same retur n of in terest whe n the nu mber of spots cha nges.Perhaps it is just the newn ess?

根据题材内容判 读符合研究报告的特点,所以选 D【举一反三】AThere was a lot of news related to artificial intelligenee, or AI, and machine learning. Among the stories were two deali ng with direct competiti ons betwee n huma ns and mach in es.In one competiti on, mach ines that used AI performed better tha n huma n beings in a high-level read ing test. Two natural language processing tools beat human in the experiment. One of the tools was built by the American tech no logy compa ny Microsoft. The other was created by Chin ese on li ne seller Alibaba Group.In ano ther competiti on, a computer took on huma ns in live, public debates. The eve nt dem on strated how Al-powered computers are in creas in gly being developed to think and sound like huma ns. The orga ni zer of the debates, U. S. tech no logy compa ny IBM, announced split results. It said a majority of those watch ing said they feltthe machine had done more to improve their knowledge of the subject. But, the human got more praise for com muni cat ing their ideas.This year, we also explored the many ways Al and mach ine lear ning are now being used. For example, some U. S. judges use mach ine lear ning systems to help them decide whe n, and for how long, crim in als should be jailed. The system uses computers to exam ine data from thousa nds of court cases.One fast-grow ing area of AI is facial recog niti on, which is in creas in gly being used for security purposes.Recen tly, Atla nta's Hartsfield-Jacks on airport became the first in the U. s. to permit passe ngers to use facial recog niti on tech no logy to get on flights. A Chin ese compa ny showed off an AI system it developed to recog nize in dividuals by body shape and walk ing moveme nts. The system is already being used by Chin ese police in Beiji ng and Shan ghai.In addition, machine learning was used during 2018 to predict results of the World Cup soccer competition.The tech no logy also created artwork that sold for a large amount of mon ey. And it is being used to help farmer save time and mon ey, while reduc ing environmen t-harmi ng chemicals. Other tech no logy systems are being used to follow farm animals and wildlife to collect information on their act。
