This is AWESOME!

...Google scientists created one of the largest neural networks for machine learning by connecting 16,000 computer processors, which they turned loose on the Internet to learn on its own.

Presented with 10 million digital images found in YouTube videos, what did Google’s brain do? What millions of humans do with YouTube: looked for cats.

AAAAAaaaahahahah!

“We never told it during the training, ‘This is a cat,’ ” said Dr. Dean, who originally helped Google design the software that let's it easily break programs into many tasks that can be computed simultaneously. “It basically invented the concept of a cat. We probably have other ones that are side views of cats.”

Kitty Pryde (adopted at 7 months old. Owners didn't want her anymore)

Gandalf (adopted at 5 years old - he's 12 now - owners didn't want him anymore because they were having a baby. They scheduled to euthanize him because he was 'too old for adoption'. He was only 5 years old so that baffles me. According to the vet he was abused by the previous owners, as well as declawed and they took a bunch of his teeth out ugh)

My kittens are all over their "pirate eye".

Willard Pawmney, Mitt Pawmney, and YT. :smile:​

I think Willard has the cat version of Down Syndrome.
But being a cat, I don't think anyone besides myself will notice.
