"First we shape our tools, then our tools shape us" is a scary prospect when you don't know that shape your tools have taken. Originally shared by Singularity 2045 Google engineers are no longer sure how their #deeplearning system thinks, it is thinking for itself in ways beyond human programming. "This means that for some things, Google researchers can no longer explain exactly how the system has learned to spot certain objects, because the programming appears to think independently from its creators, and its complex cognitive processes are inscrutable." I am not terrified in the slightest, are you? #machinelearning #artificialintelligence #machineintelligence #artificiallife #life #intelligence http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/11/15/google_thinking_machines/
