Watch MIT Develops A.I. That Can Predict Seconds Into the Future video on DTube
A superhero who was able to see two seconds into the future wouldn’t be invincible, but she’d have a leg up on mere mortals. On Monday, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology announced its new artificial intelligence, and it’s a prototype of such a being. Based on a photograph alone, it can predict what’ll happen next, then spit out a one-and-a-half second video clip depicting that possible future. The breakthrough could yield smarter autonomous cars or security systems.
MIT researchers trained the A.I. by feeding over two million videos into its two-pronged deep-learning system. The first neural network learned to generate video by absorbing information about all two million videos. The second neural network learned to discriminate real from fake videos. These two networks then engage in what’s called adversarial learning: They compete to outsmart each other. “One network (‘the generator’) tries to generate a synthetic video, and another network (‘the discriminator’) tries to discriminate synthetic versus real videos,” lead author Carl Vondrick writes. “The generator is trained to fool the discriminator.”
