While most people are familiar with day-to-day examples like self-driving cars and Alexa, there are some lesser-known facts about AI that are quite fascinating.
Here are 5 surprising facts you probably didn’t know about artificial intelligence:
AI can be creative
While AI is known for analytical skills, some forms like generative adversarial networks (GANs) can actually produce creative works like art, music, and literature. GANs pit two neural networks against each other to generate new synthetic outputs.
AI systems dream
Researchers at MIT and Facebook trained an AI system to generate images based on its own prior experiences, resulting in hallucinatory images that resembled imaginary dream scenes. The system was able to conjure up odd visions like pig-flowers and camel birds by learning from massive image datasets.
