AI Deep Neural Networks find 1200 potential gravitational lenses at Berkeley lab

A research team of scientists from the Berkeley lab has used Artificial Intelligence(AI) to discover about 1200 possible gravitational lenses. According to phys.org if this count is accurate, this could double the number of existing gravitational lenses. Read more to find out what gravitational lenses are. So what exactly are these gravitational lenses? When light emitted by stars from distant galaxies pass massive objects in the universe, like a cluster of star systems or a bunch of galaxies, the light gets bent or distorted due to the incredibly powerful gravitational force.
