Math-Blind AI Teaches Itself Basic Number Sense

Imagine you're a hunter-killer robot, hovering over the broken wasteland that used to be the world of men. You have surprised a group of biologicals in an act of petty insurrection, and they have split into two groups and begun to flee. You can only pursue and eliminate one group, but you don't have the spare milliseconds to analyze your high-definition imagery; yet you must determine which group is greater if you want to meet your termination quota. It's a good thing that back in 2012, a university lab in Italy helped machines like you evolve approximate number sense!
