Check this link to my ‘intelligent’ cybertwin which I also mentioned in the Powerpoint. You may like to create your own cybertwin as well. The more you 'train' your twin, the better the responses will be. While it is just a fun exercise, Think of the opportunities.Imagine if we had a cybertwin that could answer your questions about the course.
This would be a fantastic idea if all teachers could have a cyber-twin. If the teacher was absent, the cyber twin could then take on the responsibility of the class for the day and students would not miss out on work that was required from them on the day. This could be very beneficial to the teachers and the students.
The dream of scientists and business leaders alike is a machine that can think. Sounds like science fiction but it is closer than you may think. Alan Turing first wrote about the possibilities in the 1940's.

The Turning Test also known as The Imitation Game which was named after Alan Turing who was an English mathematician during the 1940s and 1950s and pioneered artificial intelligence. Turning Test is a technique for defining if a computer has the same capability of thinking like a human. The test is conducted between two people and an independent person like a judge. The people would be placed in separate rooms and asked questions, the judge's job was to decide which of the people where human, and which one was a machine. Turning suggested that if the judge was less than 50% accurate then the computer could be considered as a passable simulation of a human and therefore be considered as intelligent as a human.
However in contradiction of the Turing test, John Searle argued The Chinese Room. The argument was an attempt to demonstrate that a computer or machine can never think like a human and therefore are not skilled of understanding language. Searle argues that it was a way of manipulating and believing that it can understand language by use of symbols

Can virtual agents succeed in delivering high-quality customer service over the Web?
Virtual agent technology can be beneficial to companies and can offer an unbiased voice to the customer. Therefore a virtual agent can be a successful in delivering high quality customer service. There are many virtual agents that are within the online shopping sectors. With technology becoming a part of everyday life with many people, this can save time and also can have good customer satisfaction. However issues that may arise from the use of virtual agents might be that the language or voice is not comprehended correctly. therefore this may become annoying to customers and lead to a bad experience.this could effect the future of customers returning to the service.
