Task



                 Find the missing number

                 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, ?
                 And I am sure, you would have guessed the correct answer which is 36. It's a series of squares of
                 natural numbers. But how did you arrive at 36? This calculation must have taken place inside your brain
                 cells and the technique you used to decipher this puzzle, has actually helped you to decode Machine
                 Learning (ML).

                 That’s exactly the kind of behaviour that we are trying to teach the machines. ‘Learn from experience’ is
                 what we want machines to acquire.





                    Dynamic Waves in AI Research

            Following are some of the latest inventions in the history of AI:



            1.  LaMDA: It's the latest breakthrough in natural language
               understanding. It's a language model for dialogue
               applications and its open domain, which means its design
               to converse on any open-end topic. It's still in research and
               development, it's being explored for novel interactions.








                                                     2.  Google  Duplex: It is a technology powering a new Google
                                                        Assistant feature. It is a fully automated free system that can
                                                        make calls for you, mimicking the human voice, speak on your
                                                        behalf and book a table. It uses natural sounding human voice
                                                        instead of a robotic one.
