A movement coalesced around this core group of young girls and then exploded across the US, driven by incendiary shows, machine-gun rounds of fanzines and (often exploitative and patronising) media reports.
DeepMind has since demonstrated a version of the program, called AlphaGo Zero, that learns without any example games, instead relying purely on self-play (see "AlphaGo Zero Shows Machines Can Become Superhuman Without Any Help").
The first shot is from inside a peep-show machine: we are the camera, gazing into her eyes, rapt and aroused.
The Mutoscope is a peep show machine, and the history of it goes back almost t the beginning of the motion picture business, of which it is an offshoot.
For the show "Machine Art" in 1934, a pioneering exhibition of sleek industrial design and consumer goods, the museum looked like a set for a Modern-art museum straight out of a Fritz Lang movie.
It also showed machine guns and ammunition they had onboard.
"Instead, he was shown machine after machine, mostly operated by computers.
"While the tendency is for people to equate machines with drudgery, my goal is to show machines at play," said George Rhoads, the designer and builder of the exhibit.
Another also correctly showed machines that could autonomously monitor crop fields.
In the US, Stanford University researchers have shown machine-driven methods for crop yield analysis to be comparably accurate as physical surveys conducted by the USDA.
Scott Kirsner, in his book Inventing the Movies, cites Edison as saying: "We are making these peep show machines and selling a lot of them at a good profit.
