AI tool finds 8 possible signs of extraterrestrial origins

With each passing day, technology is occupying more space in people's lives. Technological inventions keep popping up and surprising us. A artificial intelligence (AI) is a great example. Now, scientists are going further. They are willing to find extraterrestrial life. See below for more details on this subject.

AI tools have become useful for scientists

First, we have to understand that AI is limited and, unfortunately or not, cannot think independently yet. Recently, SETI (search for extraterrestrial intelligence) has struggled to find signals of electromagnetic radiation through a sophisticated civilization in a limited system.

The problem lies in the fact that it is extremely difficult to study the extensive data that SETI telescopes collect from the cosmic world, even though the AI ​​displayed several favorable functions. It is interesting to point out that, in most cases, due to interference from GPS and cell phones, false positives are detected.

A student at the University of Toronto developed a tool

Thanks to this AI tool developed by Peter Ma, researchers will be able to track “signatures technologies" of extraterrestrial intelligence and will obtain galactic radio signals to pursue life alien.

In the past, search algorithms only identified human-defined anomalies, but the learning system developed by Ma allows for alternative modes of thinking.

Peter Ma went into detail about the invention

The boy added that his technique is research. So the whole process is effectively replaced by a neural network, no longer just a component and becoming the whole thing. His project has already detected eight new signs of interest, after analyzing about 150TB of data from 820 nearby stars.

He said these stars were analyzed using classical techniques; however, they were devoid of anything that, in fact, deserved a deeper investigation.
