Computer teaches itself to play games – BBC News

Published

Researchers say they have developed an artificial intelligence system that has taught itself how to win 1980s computer games. The computer program, which is inspired by the human brain, learned how to play 49 classic Atari games. In half, it was better than a professional human player. Google’s DeepMind team said this was the first time a system had learned how to master a wide range of complex tasks.
The study is published in the journal Nature.
Dr Demis Hassabis, DeepMind’s vice-president of engineering, showed the BBC’s Pallab Ghosh how the AI had taught itself to excel at the classic Breakout.

    Well, that's cool stuff, but almost every game has its cheats, bots, or programs, which can play game itself, getting scores better than players. I don't understand it a bit, but I think it's another step in the future.

    Not as impressive as the guy who made the computer program that could play any NES game.

    Just like biological organisms.  The more genes we pass on the higher the score.  All of our reward and punishment systems are just the organism learning how to better play the game.  Beautiful.

    IF YOU T TRUE  ARTIFICIAL  INTELLIGENCE,    TAKE THAT SAME ALGORITHM BUT INSTEAD OF TELLING IT TO  GETTING HIGHEST SCORE, TELL IT TO "SURVIVE"     IT WILL DEVELOP TRUE INTELLIGENCE THEN…

    It's just a computer programming;it s no wonder; ;computers can do more than that; drive planes ; do complicates tasks; but they have no identity; no feeling, no consciousness about what they are doing
    Computer remain machines can not control us very simply because there's a code behind in wich we program them to do what we want

    Not Good. We humans want everything done for us, sooner or later. We will get so lazy Stop just stop developing tech. Your going down a dark tunnel. please stop

    Wait, the programmers did not know about sending the ball above the blocks? I thought everyone knew about that! Then again, I should have spent more time doing something useful (like learning programming) instead of playing so many games… >.>

How this wave energy system is inspired by the human heart | BBC News

Published

on



Tech Now’s Adrienne Murray visited Stockholm, Sweden, to explore a wave energy technology inspired by the way the human heart pumps blood.

Swedish company CorPower has developed large yellow buoys, anchored to the seabed, which generate electricity by harnessing the movement of ocean waves.

Private baby scan studios ‘a growing concern’ – BBC News

Published

on



A BBC News investigation has uncovered failures in the diagnosis of serious medical issues during private baby scans.

More than 200 studios across the UK now sell ultrasound scans, with hundreds of thousands being carried out each year.

But the BBC has uncovered evidence of women not being told about serious conditions and abnormalities.

The Care Quality Commission says there is good quality care in the industry but it has a “growing concern”.

Weightlifting and strength exercises could help people live longer – BBC News

Published

on



Activities which strengthen the muscles – like weightlifting – should be part of an older person’s weekly exercise routine, a study suggests.

People doing both aerobic and muscle exercises were more likely to live longer than those who did just one or the other, US researchers found.

But you don’t have to go to the gym – carrying heavy shopping bags, digging in the garden and pilates all count.
