Machine VS Machine, Google DeepMind Is Making Artificial Intelligence Fight Each Other - EconoTimes

In a world where it is becoming increasingly clear that the age of artificial intelligence is inevitable, much of the fear directed towards the technology has to do with machines eliminating humans. This hasn't happened yet, but what better way to speed up the process than by having AIs practice fighting each other first? This is exactly what Google's DeepMind is trying to do just to see what would happen. Now, it's important to keep in mind that DeepMind is not out to create violent robots on purpose. Rather, what it is trying to accomplish is determine how AIs react to particular situations where they are required to engage opposing forces or challenges, Engadget reports.
