AI can tell Republicans from Democrats – but can you? Take our quiz | Technology | The Guardian

Person in between politics

Researchers say artificial intelligence will soon be able to detect a person’s political allegiance – just by looking at photos of their face. We’ve put together a quiz to see if you can beat the algorithms and work out, from someone’s face, their political allegiance. We’ve chosen 15 pictures of city councillors from Bristol, Connecticut and San Diego – eight Democrats, seven Republicans. Can you figure out which is which?

Google’s next-generation AI training system is monstrously fast – The Verge

Computer Server Room

The first TPU, shown off last year as a special-purpose chip designed specifically for machine learning, is used by the AlphaGo artificial intelligence system as the foundation of its predictive and decision-making skills. Google also uses the computation power of TPUs every time someone enters a query into its search engine. More recently, the technology has been applied to machine learning models used to improve Google Translate, Google Photos, and other software that can make novel use of new AI training

AI tackles 5000 species

Map of the world

In 2012, Google made a breakthrough: It trained its AI to recognize cats in YouTube videos. Google’s neural network, software which uses statistics to approximate how the brain learns, taught itself to detect the shapes of cats and humans with more than 70% accuracy. It was a 70% improvement over any other machine learning at the time.

Robot on the computer

Make no mistake, we are living in the future. We can store millions of files into a piece of hardware the size of our pinky nail. We can converse face-to-face while thousands of miles away from each other. We have cars that can drive themselves. We have personal computers and entertainment systems built into tiny phones that fit into our pockets. We have amazing robots that can run, swim, fly, and speak.
