Google bought the company working on artificial intelligence
Buying a British company DeepMind and certainly investment is related to the recent hiring by Google futurist Ray Kurzweil. Technologies AI giant Internet gave $ 500 million.
Last year, Google invested also in robotics, buying Boston Dynamics, one of the most important companies robotic.
DeepMind working on the development of artificial intelligence type AGI (artificial general intelligence), which is able to teach itself on the basis of the actions taken and independently solve new tasks. Co-founder, Demis Hassabis, has already released several publications on this subject.
Ray Kurzweil in 2005 he claimed that the machine of intelligence at the human level should be established between 2015 and 2045 year. For some time, the AGI works such as IBM, which is trying to create the electronic equivalent of neurons and synapses.
It is not known at what stage is DeepMind. Certainly specs of Google but they knew what to invest 500 million US dollars.
An interesting side effect of the transaction was an agreement Google to create a card ethical, which will govern it, how the giant will be able to (and how not) use inventions DeepMind. Have we stood on the threshold of a brave new robotic world?
In the last year, Google also invested in robotics, buying Boston Dynamics, one of the most important companies robotic. Buying DeepMing is therefore just another step.
