(Para.1)Imagine waking up one morning with the option of staying in bed and pressing a button to send a robot to do all the work for you. How cool that would be! It may seem like building castles in the air, but given the rate at which artificial intelligence, or Al, is being developed, in the future such dreams may actually come true.
想象一下,某天早上醒来,可以选择继续躺在床上,按下一个按钮,召来机器人来为你做所有的工作。那该多酷啊!这看上去可能像建造空中楼一样(不切实际),但是考虑到目前人工智能(AI)的发展速度,将来这样的梦想 很可能会真的实现。
选择做某事
幻想,空想
..., but given the rate at which artificial intelligence, or AI, is being developed, in the future such dreams may actually come true.

(Para.2) At the basic level, artificial intelligence is a branch of computer science that aims to develop intelligent machines. One of the essential aims of Al is to develop computer intelligence capable of learning from experience, adjusting to new inputs and performing tasks like humans.
从基础层面上看,人工智能是计算机科学的一个分支,旨在开发智能机器。人工智能基本的目标之一是开发能够学习过往经验、适应新的输入内容并且能够像人类一样执行任务的计算机智能。
旨在做某事
能够做某事

One of the essential aims of AI is to develop computer intelligence capable of learning from experience, adjusting to new inputs and performing tasks like humans.
of后三个并列v.-ing做宾语。
【翻译】
AI的基本目标之一,是开发能够学习过往经验、适应新的输入内容并且能够像人类一样执行任务的计算机智能。
(Para.2) To achieve this aim, many approaches to creating true Al have been put forward, including “deep learning”, which enables a machine to improve its own performance by learning from the results of its previous actions. Deep-learning Al has the capacity to analyse massive amounts of data through multiple layers, imitating the complex networks of the human brain.
为了实现这一目标,人们提出了许多创建真正的人工智能的方法,包括"深度学习〃----这种方法可以让机器通过学习先前的行为,结果来提高自身的性能。深度学习人工智能能够通过多层分析大量数据的能力,模拟人类大脑的复杂网络结构。

(Para.3) The dream of Al has been around for centuries, and the development of computers since the 1940s has finally made it a reality. Years before the term “artificial intelligence” was coined in the mid-1950s, the theory had been explored by Alan Turing, one of the pioneers in the field of computer science.
人工智能的梦想己经存在了几个世纪,自20世纪40年代以来计算机的发展,终于使它成为现实。“人工智能”这个术语是在20世纪50年代中期被创造出来的,而在好几年前,这一理论就被计算机科学城的先驱之一艾伦 图灵探索过。
做Alan Turing的同位语,即使说明作用
(Para.3) However, for a long time, Al technology developed very slowly. A major breakthrough in Al came in 1997, when Deep Blue, a chess-playing computer, beat the world chess champion Garry Kasparov. Then in 2017, a computer program named AlphaGo defeated Ke Jie, arguably the best human Go player, which demonstrated a significant advance in deep-learning Al systems.
然而,在很长一段时间里,人工智能技术发展非常缓。1997年,人工智能才有了重大突破,当时一名叫做深蓝的国际象棋计算机打败了国际象棋世界冠军加里 卡斯帕罗夫。之后在2017年,一个叫作阿尔法围棋的计算机程序打败了可能是人类最强的国棋棋手柯洁,这显示了深度学习人工智能系统的一大显著进展。
breakthrough n. 重大进展;突破 adj. 突破性的
(教材原句) A major breakthrough in AI came in 1997, when Deep Blue, a chess-playing computer, beat the world chess champion Garry Kasparov. 1997年, 当一台会下棋的电脑“深蓝”击败国际象棋世界冠军加里·卡斯帕罗夫的时候, 人工智能领域取得重大突破。

【翻译】
之后在2017年,一个叫阿尔法围棋的计算机程序赢了可谓人类最强的围棋棋手柯洁,这说明了深度学习AI系统的一大显著进步。
(Para.3) Nowadays, Al is already being applied in many fields: finance, health care, natural language processing and art, to name but a few. From autonomous vehicles to domestic robots, from recommendation systems to computers writing novels, Al has an unlimited number of applications. Ordinary people are now using Al to get instant translations of text in foreign languages, and machines can recognize fingerprints and even faces.
如今,工智能己经应用于许多领域:金融、医疗、机器翻译和艺术等,不一而足。从自动驾驶汽车到家用机器人,从推荐系统到撰写小说的电脑,人工智能有着无限的应用场景。老百姓现在正使用人工智能进行外语文本的即时翻译,而且计算机可以识别指纹甚至人脸。
略举几例
(Para.4) In short, this technology is transforming the way we live.
It is clear that we are at a turning point in history. With machines like AlphaGo now capable of thinking and learning from their mistakes, we are getting closer to the dividing line between humans and machines. The question is, where will all this lead
简而言之,这一技术正在改变我们的生活方式。很明显我们正处在历史的转折点上。现在随着像阿尔法国棋这样能从错误中思考和学习的机器出现,人类和机器之间的分界线越来越不明显。问题是,这一切将会导致什么

人工智能的热烈支持者许诺智能机器人将为我们带来一个光明的未来,到时智能机器人将对我们有利;但这些毋庸置疑的好处也带来了担忧和恐惧。机器真的能发展出类似人类的智能吗 如果真是这样会发生什么 有思想的机器会和人类并肩作战,还是会威胁到人类的生存
