Google's DeepMind creates AI that can learn like a human

Spending several days playing Space Invaders may seem like a waste of time. But it has just been used to prove the viability of a technique which could one day allow AI to match human intelligence - and eventually surpass it. Researchers at Google's DeepMind project have created an AI program that allows machines to learn and retain knowledge in the same way as people. Google's DeepMind AI project has created an algorithm which allows machines to learn and retain knowledge in the same way as people. Google's DeepMind AI relies on artificial neural networks, which try to simulate the way the brain works in order to learn.
