i think self driving cars will be a reality, but probably in no less than 50 years.
it's 2016 and we can't even keep websites up without armies of people tending to them 24/7. i don't know what reality everyone who is enthusiastic about this technology is living in.
- ghaff 10y agoA lot of "AI"/machine learning/etc. examples show impressive results on relatively narrow and well-controlled use cases. A lot of people look at those and extrapolate to much broader and less controlled environments with lots of messy corner cases and assume it's just a bit more incremental work to get there. Whereas, in fact, getting from essentially a demo to mostly just works in messy real world environments can easily be 90% of the work.
