This is what fascinates me about machine learning. You can train an algorithm self adjust in ways that a human doesn't have the capacity to understand, which can then perform human like tasks.

If we get good at allowing programs to generate programs that find new ways of learning. Is it still behaving in a way that humans program them, or has it shifted to a law of nature that is fundamentally out of our control.

When it's all said and done, we decide if it was us, or a force beyond humans.
