At the beginning of this month, we learned that Apple had assembled a team specialized in Artificial Intelligence and that they would help the company to improve in all aspects. However, until now we have not known anything more about it, the company is a little stopped about it, especially taking into account the possibilities that artificial intelligence can give its virtual assistant, Siri. Nevertheless, The first studies of this specialist team in Artificial Intelligence begin to give results with the first work on image recognition.
Apple has released the results of its first investigation in which Ashish Shrivastava, Tomas Pfister, Oncel Tuzel, Josh Susskind, Wenda Wang, and Russ Web participate as specialists. The team technically details how computer-generated images, such as in video games, can be used by artificial intelligence systems. to learn more about real world images. Although it seems little, any advance regarding image recognition and artificial intelligence technology can represent a very important technological advance in order to make people's lives easier and more efficient. Apparently the product of the investigation was sent to Apple on November 22, although it was not made public until December 22.
We have developed an S + U Learning system that uses a network similar to Generative Adversarial Networks, but in this case using synthetic images (created by computer) as the starting point for that learning.
It may sound completely Chinese to us, even terrifying, but artificial intelligence is definitely going to become a system that will help all human beings and prevent catastrophes in all areas. So, we should not look at this type of technology with suspicion, as long as it is in good hands.
