据美国《时代》周刊报道,科学家设计制造的首台具有自我进化能力的电脑,成功地设计制造了3个简单的机器人,在整个过程中,科学家几乎没有提供任何帮助。 美国布兰黛斯大学的电脑专家乔丹·波雷克说,虽然这3个仅有8英寸大小的机器人没有惊人的体魄,也不会打扫房间,但它们的确已经自己学会了一些动作。乔丹教授说:“问题并不在于我们的这个机器人能做些什么事,意义在于,它完完全全是电脑根据进化理论制造的产物。” According to the report by the U.S. “Time” magazine, the first self-evolving computers designed and manufactured by scientists successfully designed and manufactured three simple robots, and the scientists provided little help during the whole process. Jordan Porek, a computer scientist at Brandeis University in the United States, said that although the three 8-inch robots were neither stunned nor clean the room, they did learn some of the actions themselves. Professor Jordan said: “The problem is not what our robot can do. The significance is that it is completely a product of computers based on evolutionary theory.”
