Google's AI can understand and caption images better than ever; will hunt down every human

It used to be that computer vision - getting a computer to not only'see', but also to'understand', the objects around it - was one of the hardest problem for engineers and researchers to solve. However, with modern advances in neural networks and machine learning, computer vision has become common place. Now, Google has shared the latest big advancements in this space, which spell doom for humanity. A cross between computer vision and machine learning, the system analyzes images and then describes what it sees in captions, which are supposed to be easily understandable and as human-like as possible. We've seen previous incarnation of such systems from both Google and Microsoft, not to mention other companies in the IT space.
