Ray Kurzweil Says He’s Breathing Intelligence into Google Search
Ray Kurzweil Says He’s Breathing Intelligence into Google Search Inventor and futurist Ray Kurzweil says work is under way at Google to apply his theory of intelligence to understanding online information. The big announcements at Google’s I/O event in San Francisco Wednesday didn’t mention Web search, the technology that got the company started and made it so successful. But in a small session la
Google’s Intelligence Designer
The man behind a startup acquired by Google for $628 million plans to build a revolutionary new artificial intelligence. Demis Hassabis started playing chess at age four and soon blossomed into a child prodigy. At age eight, success on the chessboard led him to ponder two questions that have obsessed him ever since: first, how does the brain learn to master complex tasks; and second, could compute
How Google "Translates" Pictures into Words Using Vector Space Mathematics
How Google "Translates" Pictures into Words Using Vector Space Mathematics Google engineers have trained a machine-learning algorithm to write picture captions using the same techniques it developed for language translation. Translating one language into another has always been a difficult task. But in recent years, Google has transformed this process by developing machine translation algorithms t
Google’s Secretive DeepMind Startup Unveils a "Neural Turing Machine"
Google’s Secretive DeepMind Startup Unveils a "Neural Turing Machine" DeepMind has built a neural network that can access an external memory like a conventional Turing machine. The result is a computer that mimics the short-term memory of the human brain. One of the great challenges of neuroscience is to understand the short-term working memory in the human brain. At the same time, computer scient
Hidden Obstacles for Google’s Self-Driving Cars
Impressive progress hides major limitations of Google’s quest for automated driving. Would you buy a self-driving car that couldn’t drive itself in 99 percent of the country? Or that knew nearly nothing about parking, couldn’t be taken out in snow or heavy rain, and would drive straight over a gaping pothole? If your answer is yes, then check out the Google Self-Driving Car, model year 2014. Of co
Is Google Cornering the Market on Deep Learning?
A cutting-edge corner of science is being wooed by Silicon Valley, to the dismay of some academics. How much are a dozen deep-learning researchers worth? Apparently, more than $400 million. In the ‘Plex: Google is spending hundreds of millions to build software that can learn from the information stored in its data centers. This week, Google reportedly paid that much to acquire DeepMind Technologi
Google Launches Effort to Build Its Own Quantum Computer
Google’s crack at a quantum computer is a bid to change computing forever. Google is about to begin designing and building hardware for a quantum computer, a type of machine that can exploit quantum physics to solve problems that would take a conventional computer millions of years. Quantum core: Techniques developed at the University of California, Santa Barbara, to build this device, known as a
