Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a transmitting unit that transmits, to an external apparatus, environment information indicative of an environment of an apparatus that uses an artificial intelligence and checking information for checking estimation processing of the artificial intelligence; a receiving unit that receives evaluation result information indicative of a result of evaluation of the estimation processing; and a controller that sets the estimation processing active in a case where the result of the evaluation is compliant with the environment. A criterion for the evaluation of the estimation processing varies according to the environment indicated by the environment information.

Claims (43)

1 . An information processing apparatus comprising:

a transmitting unit that transmits, to an external apparatus, environment information indicative of an environment of an apparatus that uses an artificial intelligence and checking information for checking estimation processing of the artificial intelligence;

a receiving unit that receives evaluation result information indicative of a result of evaluation of the estimation processing; and

a controller that sets the estimation processing active in a case where the result of the evaluation is compliant with the environment,

wherein a criterion for the evaluation of the estimation processing varies according to the environment indicated by the environment information.

2 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the receiving unit further receives test data representing contents of a test for checking performance of the artificial intelligence;

the transmitting unit transmits, as the checking information, answer information indicative of an answer of the artificial intelligence to the test to the external apparatus; and

the controller further restricts operation of the artificial intelligence in accordance with the answer.

3 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

the test is executed again after a predetermined period has elapsed since the artificial intelligence last demonstrated performance that satisfies a predetermined criterion in the test.

4 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein

the test is automatically executed.

5 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

the test is a test according to a field in which the artificial intelligence is used.

6 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein

the test is a test according to a field in which the artificial intelligence is used.

7 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein

the test is a test according to a field in which the artificial intelligence is used.

8 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein

the controller permits operation of the artificial intelligence only in a field in which performance of the artificial intelligence has satisfied a predetermined criterion of the test, among a plurality of fields.

9 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

in a case where the receiving unit receives the test data, the test is executed even in a case where the artificial intelligence is executing operation other than answering the test.

10 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

in a case where the test is not executed, the transmitting unit further transmits information concerning the artificial intelligence to the external apparatus.

11 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

in a case where a plurality of artificial intelligences work in cooperation with one another, the controller further restricts the cooperative work of the plurality of artificial intelligences in a case where a difference in performance among the plurality of artificial intelligences is equal to or larger than a predetermined threshold value.

12 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

in a case where a plurality of artificial intelligences work in cooperation with one another, the controller further restricts the cooperative work of the plurality of artificial intelligences in a case where the plurality of artificial intelligences include artificial intelligence that does not have performance equal to or higher than predetermined performance.

13 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the controller further restricts operation of the artificial intelligence in a case where performance of the artificial intelligence becomes equal to or higher than upper-limit performance as a result of learning of the artificial intelligence or in a case where the performance of the artificial intelligence becomes equal to or lower than lower-limit performance as a result of learning of the artificial intelligence.

14 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

in a case where improvement of performance of the artificial intelligence is less than a predetermined threshold value as a result of learning of the artificial intelligence, the controller further outputs information indicating that the improvement of the performance of the artificial intelligence is less than the predetermined threshold value.

15 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for information processing, the process comprising:

transmitting, to an external apparatus, environment information indicative of an environment of an apparatus that uses an artificial intelligence and checking information for checking estimation processing of the artificial intelligence;

receiving evaluation result information indicative of a result of evaluation of the estimation processing; and

setting the estimation processing active in a case where the result of the evaluation is compliant with the environment

wherein a criterion for the evaluation of the estimation processing varies according to the environment indicated by the environment information.

16 . An information processing apparatus comprising:

transmitting means for transmitting, to an external apparatus, environment information indicative of an environment of an apparatus that uses an artificial intelligence and checking information for checking estimation processing of the artificial intelligence;

receiving means for receiving evaluation result information indicative of a result of evaluation of the estimation processing; and

controlling means for setting the estimation processing active in a case where the result of the evaluation is compliant with the environment,

wherein a criterion for the evaluation of the estimation processing varies according to the environment indicated by the environment information.
