Western News - New study identifies how AI fails to reproduce human vision

When a human spots a familiar face or an oncoming vehicle, it takes the brain a mere 100 milliseconds (about one-tenth of a second) to identify it and more importantly, place it in the right context so it can be understood, and the individual can react accordingly. Unsurprisingly, computers may be able to do this faster, but are they as accurate as humans in the real world? Not always, and that's a problem, according to a study led by Western neuroimaging expert Marieke Mur. Computers can be taught to process incoming data, like observing faces and cars, using artificial intelligence known as deep neural networks or deep learning. This type of machine learning process uses interconnected nodes or neurons in a layered structure that resembles the human brain.
