Humans need to sleep not just to rest. Humans also need sleep to strengthen memory by converting short-term memories into long-term memory. Our brains undergo various processes such as stabilization, enhancement, and integration, that our memory of something more and more saved.

This process was not only want to be just a theory only, because the scientists will apply it to the robot.

True, artificial intelligence product from Google that previously successfully beat humans in some games, DeepMind, is being developed for the more sophisticated the human beat. This is done with the concept of human dreams.

If made into an analogy, the human dream of things that bad or embarrassing in order to save a variety of long-term memory. If in the context of artificial intelligence DeepMind, 'dream' is a concept visualization that automatically appears in the form of how to win and repeat it continues to expert.

The purpose of this is to achieve the equivalent of human intelligence, in a way that humans use also the experiment. Robots with artificial intelligence base is no longer necessary to constantly supervised. They've been able to supply its own data and shape it in a pattern that they need also own. So in a period not active, 'dream' is the ideal solution to keep up with artificial intelligence is still smart.

Through this method, researchers are already getting some interesting results. Reports indicate that there is an increase in the ratio of 10 times the speed of learning than when they watched.

Could it be that one day all our intelligence system will be copied into a robot? Sooner or later, the answer is yes.
