An international team of researchers, led by scientists at the University of Toronto, has developed a new machine learning algorithm to help answer one of the biggest questions of all: Are we alone in the universe? It’s another use of artificial intelligence (AI), in which a computer performs tasks humans (or less sophisticated computers) used to do. The researchers announced the news on January 30, 2023. They hope their new algorithm will streamline the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, commonly known as SETI. It can find potential signals in data that other methods might have missed. And in fact, after looking at 820 initial stars, it has already found 8 potential signals of interest.
