AI will soon become impossible for humans to comprehend – the story of neural networks tells us why.
Have you ever chatted with an AI program and left wondering if it was actually a real person?
Of the many “profound risks to society and humanity” that have tech experts worried about artificial intelligence (AI), the spread of fake images is one that everyday internet users will be familiar with.
