Google Deepmind AI learns how to walk

[Ian]

Google have released a very interesting (and amusing) video of the Deepmind AI learning how to walk in a virtual environment:

As impressive as this is, it's worth watching for a laugh, as some of the "walks" are quite unique!

I think the next step is to make two humanoid figures race each other.
Then the step after that is to make them race each other and to win by any means necessary.

I hope that within my lifetime this advances far enough that we get to the point where we specifically have to write code to prevent them from harming us. Which will fail.

Haha, that would be a brilliant test!
