A team had two different neural networks "watch" four hours' worth of videos in which humans are shown preparing different salads. [...]
The program was shown more salad-making videos and told what actions it was watching for the first 20 to 30 percent of one of the videos. It then had to predict what would happen next for the rest of the clip.

The result? The algorithm was able to predict both which actions were coming up with 40 percent accuracy. That clearly leaves some room for improvement, but it's also a major first step.

Still, the researchers emphasize their work is a key start to the brand new field of activity prediction.
"We want to predict the timing and duration of activities -- minutes or even hours before they happen," Gall explains.
If that becomes reality, we could move beyond the era of smart homes that manage the thermostat and lights to helping homes that prep your ingredients and preheat the oven moments before you arrive home hungry after a long day. Decades later, Rosey the Robot is finally becoming feasible.

They can stick their abhorrent diabolical AI crystal-ball antics right where the sun don't reach! PERIOD.

As with all this kind of tech, it`s fine when it genuinely improves people`s lives - medical, disabilities etc

but it`s only a matter of time until the ad pushers & peddlers get their grubby hands on it.

Like that "eye movement tracking" article from the other day - they will pervert anything they touch.
