Training AI to understand how people think: Google’s DeepMind is one step closer to “thinking” like humans…

On By Admin

AI machines or programs capable of understanding and executing human thought patterns have been a popular theme in sci-fi for decades. Countless movies and books have explored the possibilities of future AI — and most of it looks pretty darn grim for humans — and now Google’s DeepMind firm could be bringing what was once considered fiction to life.

We’re not there yet, but we’re getting close. Last month scientists from China’s National Center for Nanoscience and Technology (NCNT) and Arizona State University said they had developed robots a few hundred nanometers across — there are 25 million nanometers in an inch — and when they injected them into the bloodstream of mice, the nanorobots could shrink tumors by blocking their blood supply.

Marijuna is nowhere near as dangerous to the brain as alcohol

Luckily, we’re seeing a marijuana research revival in the past decade, prompted by the legalization of the recreational and medicinal use of cannabis in more than 10 states in the US.

But the bigger reason is that there are many different sources of bacteria and viruses present inside hospitals, and germicide use is standard practice. As such, specialized equipment is needed to avoid causing any unexpected incidents involving patients and health workers in it.
