Researchers in MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory had created an algorithm that analyzes video, then uses what it learns to predict how humans will behave.

The machine was fed six-hundred hours of clips from shows like The Office and Big Bang Theory and learned to identify high-fives, handshakes, hugs, and kisses. When tests were run, the algorithm correctly predicted future interactions 43% of the time.

An artificially intelligent computing system built by researchers at Google, AlphaGo, was playing its second game of a match of Go with one of the world's top players, Lee Sedol. On the 37th move, it shocked everyone by playing a very surprising move, seemingly unrelated to its earlier play.

Eventually it will win the game.
