In an amazing turn of events, researchers at Washington State University have created computers that could teach other computers, and they're starting with Pac-Man. That's just the beginning.



Knowledge transfer is a skill we humans have over our computer overlords but I guess not for long. Dr. Matthew E. Taylor, professor of Artificial Intelligence at WSU, developed a method that allows a "teacher" computer to give advice to a "student" computer in a way that mimics how you might teach a fellow human.

Will the robopocalypse follow after this?
