AI Simulates The Universe And Not Even Its Creators Know How It’s So Accurate

For the first time, scientists have used artificial intelligence to create complex, three-dimensional simulations of the Universe. It’s called the Deep Density Displacement Model, or D3M, and it’s so fast and so accurate that the astrophysicists who designed it don’t even know how it does what it does.

One day as we are hiding from the robots in our underground shelters, we shall look back on this day and think how very innocent it started.

Good simulations take months if not years to complete on fast supercomputers.

“It’s like teaching image recognition software with lots of pictures of cats and dogs”.

That’s OK for interpolation. But far from great. The same methods are used in for example text recognition from Trove newspapers. Picking a random paragraph from the Trove website gives:

That counts as about 6% error by letter, doesn’t it. Not all that great, though.
