Fujitsu robot to sit for top-ranked university exam

By robotizing the kids who pass Todai's (or any university's) entrance exam, Japan's education system has proven to be decades ahead of the brainy folks at Fujitsu.

“But getting a computer to understand text that was intended for humans is not an easy task,” it added. Fujitsu built the world's second most powerful supercomputer up to date.If they use this it wont be a problem.

The robot’s artificial brain would analyse a mash of words, numbers, and equations Anyhow this is the beginning of the end for mathematicians and engineers, they will be jobless by 20xx.

Whats next? Robots going to university everyday?? Mom, I got new robot classmate. LOL. No wonder if Terminators bring real doomsday to human world. One just cannot ignore those possibilities.

Reminds me of Doraemon.

The instructors had better make sure the robot or its handlers don't cheat. Just give it one pencil and an eraser like its counterparts and see what it can thereafter.

Too bad it can't write critical essays!

Fujitsu is another company to soon follow Sharp in either being bought up by a non-Japanese company or going bankrupt.

"Robots with artificial intelligence will soon have the ability to pass university entrance exams. Discuss."

There's an exam question their robot would fail on. Mind you, it could probably pass the national university entrance exam as all that requires is a knowledge of facts.

Reasoning and knowledge is not sufficient. Design them to work connected to networks, teach them arrogance. And they'll get closer to humans.
