Google’s AI initiative, Google Brain, has created a program that has created its own machine-learning system – which is outperforming anything comparable developed by humans. Could Skynet be next? As Google’s own engineering director Ray Kurzweil warned, mankind will have to endure “difficult episodes” before AI ultimately benefits humanity.
“Researchers at Google Brain – an arm of the search engine giant which focuses on AI research – created AutoML earlier this year, which is an AI bot that is capable of creating other machine learning programs.”
