  • Computational Creativity

    Some computational creativity systems can generate art that's surprisingly unpredictable, even to their creators, highlighting the emergent properties of complex algorithms.

  • Deep Learning

    Deep learning models often require massive amounts of data to train effectively; a single training run can consume more energy than a human being does in a lifetime.

  • DeepMind (Alphabet)

    DeepMind's AlphaGo famously beat a world champion Go player, a feat previously considered decades away due to the game's complexity.

  • Drug Discovery (AI)

    AI is accelerating drug discovery by identifying potential drug candidates far faster than traditional methods, sometimes predicting the efficacy of molecules before they're even synthesized.

  • Evolutionary Algorithms

    Evolutionary algorithms are inspired by biological evolution, but they don't necessarily mimic it perfectly. For example, they often use techniques like crossover (combining parts of solutions) which don't have a direct biological equivalent.

  • OpenAI

    OpenAI was initially founded as a non-profit but later established a for-profit subsidiary to attract more investment.

  • Pattern Recognition

    Pattern recognition systems are often surprisingly vulnerable to adversarial attacks – tiny, almost imperceptible changes to input data that can drastically alter the system's output.
