The team from MIT, York University and the University of Toronto first trained an algorithm to draw characters in 50 languages by studying the required pen strokes.

The drawings may look simple (some are better than others), but it's the kind of progress that highlights how artificial intelligence is continuing to gain humanlike capabilities.

The researchers varied the videos the bots watched using the top 20 algorithmic recommendations to draw some conclusions. The bots first watched 30 videos matching their leanings – the recommendations ...

Sequencing Sequencing in practice: Drawing a square When designing algorithms, it is important to make sure that all the steps are presented in the correct order.

Social media feeds are flooded with content. Sometimes, it’s exactly what we want; other times, not so much. When the algorithm doesn’t align with your interests, it can get frustrating.
