Google’s DeepMind Achieves Human Level AI

A human-level AI named Gato that can do 604 distinct tasks across a wide range of environments was revealed earlier this week by Google's DeepMind.

DeepMind, a Google-owned British company, may be close to achieving human-level artificial intelligence (AI).

In terms of addressing the most difficult hurdles in the race to create artificial general intelligence (AGI), Nando de Freitas, a research scientist at DeepMind and a machine learning professor at Oxford University, has declared 'the game is over'.

A machine or software with AGI can grasp or learn any intellectual task that a human can, and it can do so without any training.

According to De Freitas, scientists are now working to scale up AI programs, such as by adding more data and computing capacity, in order to construct an AGI.

DeepMind revealed Gato, a new AI 'agent' that can do 604 distinct tasks 'across a wide range of environments' earlier this week.

Gato employs a single neural network, which is a com...
