Two weeks ago I attended the International Computer Vision Summer School (ICVSS), a nice summer school full of lectures held by Machine and Deep Learning giants (e.g., Andrej Karpathy, William T. Freeman, and so on). Although the summer school content was interesting, I have also attended an essay competition about Human-imitative intelligence, i.e., if the current AI products can be considered an incarnation of human-intelligence or just a simulation.

In the essay, which was a collaboration between other three people coming from Zurich, Toronto and Luxemburg, we wrote about historical and current perspective of AI products with Turing Test in mind. Sadly, we did not win but were awarded for Honourable mention.
