NASA Announces Press Conference Regarding Aliens and Artificial Intelligence
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has called for a press conference that is expected to reveal new information on extraterrestrial life forms. Furthermore, recent reports have revealed that NASA cited Google's machine learning played a pivotal role in the highly anticipated discovery.
According to reports, the press conference is set to be conducted and addressed by scientists who have been working with the Kepler space telescope. The telescope has been instrumental in the discovery of 2,500 planets with approximately 2,000 more to be studied. The Kepler space telescope has also found the Goldilocks Zone, where several planets are orbiting and where the general temperature is warm enough to support the properties of liquid.
"The discovery was made by researchers using machine learning from Google. Machine learning is an approach to artificial intelligence, and demonstrates new ways of analyzing Kepler data," said NASA in a press release meant to tease the highly anticipated reveals on the conference, as reported by The Inquisitr.
