Interesting article and poses the question and what I would theorize is the correct way for A.I. to learn how to be more human or machine learn is in a virtual environment. i.e. create a 3D based game to teach it how to interact in the physical world in order for robotic A.I. advancement and human interaction. Similar to Google Drive then test on the road in real-life. To the point on visual processing a stealth A.I. (not for long) working in this space is Magic Pony Technology (http://www.magicpony.technology/ http://www.magicpony.technology/) operating from London and guys I spotted at London A.I. who have previously hosted Prediction IO and Swiftkey at their last events. Another caveat for this test is sound, human players will have audio but the A.I. will be purely visual so a slight disadvantage. We are working on speech-to-text and text-to-speech technology for our A.I. voice enabled finance assistant which is in beta at WealRo (http://www.wealro.com http://www.wealro.com) with a view to enabling a visual face recognition at some point in order for the A.I. to gather information from facial expressions. Always happy to get any thoughts on the potential usefulness of such an integration?
