Everything you need to know about TensorFlow, Google's own home-made AI software that's now helping NASA discover planets and beating champions at Go

In 2016, more than 100 million people worldwide watched closely as the legendary world champion Go player Lee Sedol played against a computer program -- and lost. Then, in 2017, NASA scientists discovered two new planets with the Kepler space telescope. What these seemingly-disparate achievements have in common is that they were possible with the technology behind TensorFlow, an open source AI project. It was originally started by Google engineers, but has proven especially popular for any project requiring the processing of big data. TensorFlow was created by the Google Brain team, led by Google senior fellow and AI researcher Jeff Dean.
