Beyond artificial intelligence: Machines Learning Beauty - Tech for the Non-Techie Zach Abraham

AI and machine learning have taken the center stage in todays digital world but can it help us teach a machine what beauty is? Can a computer help us create beautiful or elegant patterns, pictures or designs? Without having an iota of intelligence of its own, the digital computer does work which requires a lot of Artificial intelligence - Similarly, we believe that although the computer does not have any aesthetic sense of its own, the computer can (or the human, with the help of computer, can) produce, not reproduce nor copy, articles of remarkable 'Beauty'. Artificially intelligent systems are capable of telling whether an email is spam or not but can they tell whether something is beautiful or not?How can a machine learn to do that? These are some of the questions that we look at in this book!
