Part 9/14:
AI's prowess became evident not just in games but also in the physical realm. OpenAI's training of a robotic hand to manipulate objects demonstrated the comprehensive adaptability of pattern learning. Instead of relying on pre-programmed movements, the network autonomously learned the mechanics of manipulation through repeated simulations, steadily acquiring more complex behaviors like walking or playing soccer. While many AI systems initially exhibited narrow competencies, the gradual evolution towards a more general intelligence model became a tangible goal.
