问题    Computer intelligence will overturn everything from medicine to the stock market and the revolution is only just beginning.
   【F1】Artificial intelligence (AI) and a world in which machines threaten humanity’s status quo has been the preserve of science fiction for decades. In the Eighties, Terminator was set in a post-apocalyptic (末日的) world, RoboCop’s leading role was part-man, part-machine and Short Circuit toyed with the idea of robots developing human-like minds, with rather more endearing results.
   The reality is the bot has bolted. AI is walking and talking among us. These days, we use voice-recognition systems, driverless cars are being trialed and robotic hotel receptionists work in Japan. 【F2】The advent of certain technologies—inexpensive high-speed internet, secure cloud storage, mobility solutions and low-cost devices—has allowed the fantastical possibilities of the past to become reality.
   Armed with that tech appeal it is vital for business leaders to engage with AI. They must realise its vast untapped potential and take charge in shaping the present and the future. "Everything invented in the past 150 years will be reinvented using AI within the next 15 years," says Randy Dean, chief business officer,at Sentient Technologies.
   【F3】This chief should know: by harnessing AI’s potency his San Francisco-based company has disrupted markets, including healthcare, retail, food and financial trading. "Because of AI we are beginning to see strong advances in health, transport, banking and many other domains," he says. "Soon AI will be able to predict a heart attack hours, or even days, before you feel it."
   "In addition, we are developing a joint venture which we believe is the world’s first AI hedge fund. It uses evolving algorithms (算法) created by humans and optimised by machines for trading. Using historical market data, we train our AI to find signals." As part of Tata Communications’ two-day CEO Summit this year, Mr Dean was invited to demonstrate the e-commerce AI program to 60 business leaders.
   【F4】It allows shoe shoppers to cut down a catalogue into personal choices with a few swipes, factoring in subtle details such as slope of toe, height of heel and shape of sole. In his stimulating welcome note to the summit, Vinod Kumar, chief executive of Tata Communications, writes: "AI is no longer the stuff of science fiction; it is in the mainstream of information technology... 【F5】We must share our ideas on how to fulfil its potential while guarding against any social and economic disruption."
【F1】
选项
答案无论是人工智能(简称AI)，还是机器威胁人类地位的世界，这些都是过去几十年科幻小说独有的桥段。
解析 ①本句为包含一个定语从句的主从复合句。②主句为主系表结构，主语是两个并列名词Artificial intelligence和a world，表语是一个名词短语the preserve of science fiction。③定语从句修饰先行词a world，引导词in which在定语从句中充当地点状语，说明这是机器威胁人类的世界。宾语中status quo为固定词组搭配，意为“现状”。
