Funny thing about 'artificial intelligence' otherwise known as machine learning, is that a human has to teach it how to function. True story, not a Curio Folio this time, artificial intelligence started with early computers in the 1960's, the military was trying to use them to predict missile trajectories for interceptions. They used something called a ROC, a type of math equation that could be adjusted with a formula. They taught the computer to keep trying formulas until it learned the best one for the interception. Then they could add air speed, wind, and other variables and keep training the computer. This allowed missile interceptions to be much faster especially when computers sped up in subsequent generations. Modern 'AI' is all based on the same concept, albeit much more ambitious and involving trillions of data points.
