With this it is important that robots learn to understand what they see, so that they can better deal with surprises…

Computers writing their own software: according to Martin Vechev, Professor of Computer Science at ETH Zürich, that’s definitely not science fiction. Vechev is one of the founders of a field of research in which computer scientists aim to largely automate the programming process...

Internet is great for finding stuff. This is possible because the users (meaning you and me) stock enormous amounts of data online that is exploited by clever search algorithms capable of identifying relationships.
