Task appropriateness determination apparatus

A task appropriateness determination apparatus configured to determine that a task to be performed on a target object is completed, the task appropriateness determination apparatus comprising:

• a first learning unit configured to cause artificial intelligence to learn (1) pointers pointing to locations where target objects are found and (2) the locations pointed by the pointers, in order to obtain pre-learned pointer information;
• an image provider configured to provide the artificial intelligence with images;
• a second learning unit configured to cause the artificial intelligence to:
• based on the pre-learned pointer information, detect pointers and locations pointed by the pointers in the images from the image provider;
• and
• in response to detecting the pointers and the locations pointed by the pointers in the images from the image provider, learn target objects in the locations pointed by the pointers to obtain pre-learned target object information;
• an image capturing unit configured to capture an image including a target object on which the task is performed and a pointer pointing to the target object;
• and
• a task appropriateness determiner configured to determine that the task has been completed, in response to the artificial intelligence detecting, in the image captured by the image capturing unit, the target object pointed by the pointer based on the pre-learned pointer information and the pre-learned target object information.
