Google has released an AI technology capable of replicating itself without human intervention . The technology is called AutoML and not only replicates itself but can create an AI virtual child capable of outsmarting young humans . Its success comes from its ability to create small neural networks to the same level that a human child would construct a similar network . It is hoped that this tech will bring success to those that are not necassirly experts . This example of unsupervised machine learning is another step forward for AI , which comes in a year that saw breakthroughs such as Google 's AlphaGo AI success at teaching itself how to beat a Go world champion .
