AI Learns to Solve Quantum State of Many Particles at Once

Google’s AlphaGo artificial neural network made headlines last year when it
bested a world champion at Go. After marvelling at this feat, Giuseppe
Carleo of ETH Zurich in Switzerland thought it might be possible to build a
similar machine-learning tool to crack one of the knottiest problems in
quantum physics.

The AI Threat Isn’t Skynet – It’s the End of the Middle Class

The rise of driverless cars and trucks is just a start. New AI techniques
are poised to reinvent everything from manufacturing to healthcare to Wall
Street. In other words, it’s not just blue-collar jobs that AI endangers.

Understanding Agent Cooperation

We employ deep multi-agent reinforcement learning to model the emergence of cooperation. The new notion of sequential social dilemmas allows us to model how rational agents interact, and arrive at more or less cooperative behaviours depending on the na…

Elon Musk is Preparing to Release “Brain Hacking Tech”

Elon Musk stated that updates regarding his neural lace, which is meant to
augment the human mind, are coming next month. In October, Bryan Johnson
announced a $100 million investment to put computers in our brains. And so,
a race is on to hack human intelligence.
