Facebook has been showing off the latest advancements in its image recognition research.

"Our AI research efforts - along with our work to develop radical new approaches to connectivity and our work to develop immersive new VR technologies - are a long-term endeavour," wrote Mike Schroepfer, Facebook's chief technology officer.
"But if we can get them right we will be able to build systems that are smarter and more useful, enable developers to create immersive new experiences, and make it possible to connect everyone in the world."
