For some time now, Google’s uber-secretive and appropriately titled “X Laboratory” research center (responsible for such cutting-edge innovations as Google Glasses) has been quietly creating one of the largest artificial intelligences in existence. After linking together over 16,000 computer processors to create a neural network with over 1 billion connections, researchers at the X Lab exposed their new creation to 10 Million digital images found in YouTube videos (sounds like my kids).
