It is easy to get caught up in the mystique of artificial intelligence and machine learning when you view the results of an autoencoder or generative adversarial network. The results of these deep learning systems can appear magical and even show signs of actual intelligence. Unfortunately, the truth is far different and even challenges our perception of intelligence.
As our knowledge of AI advances, we often set the bar higher as to what systems demonstrate intelligence. Deep learning is one of those systems that many now view as a mathematical process (machine learning) rather ...
