Artificial intelligence will be changing business as well as our personal lives. Google is doing amazing things with Deep Learning.

DeepMind, the London-based artificial intelligence outfit owned by Google, claims to have devised code enabling robots to out-think puny humans when it comes to navigating mazes. DeepMind's latest AI, the company says, can figure out the route through a maze and spot shortcuts far quicker than any human. That's according to the research written up in the journal Nature. The AI did this through the use of artificial takes on'grid cells', which help handle navigation in the brains of mammals by working out the position of an animal or human in an environment by effectively figuring out the distance between two points - a vector - through the use of a series of meshed hexagonal grids. The discovery of a pseudo internal GPS for mammals in 2005 means it's a relatively recent addition to the knowledge of biology and neuroscience.
