- ben_w 8y agoI am surprised, given that humans seem to drive mostly by a pair of video inputs. Can you go into depth about why this comparison is inappropriate, why it unlikely to be solvable in this way? (I can certainly understand “not now”, but your claim seems rather stronger than that).
- toufiqbarhamov 8y agoIt’s really simple: our video inputs are better than cameras, react in a wide range of light conditions, and most of all are hooked up to a GGI: Genuine General Intelligence, aka human brain. Even then it takes us almost two decades before we’re safe to drive, and we still smash into things.
- Q6T46nT668w6i3m 8y agoUnlike the Scarecrow, we also use our brains! We’ve made extraordinary progress, but, ultimately, we’re still training systems in extremely simplistic ways to solve (conceptually) simplistic tasks. Localizing objects (into a set of categories no less) is only a fraction of what your brain does when looking around. Moreover, we still struggle with this. One of the Tesla accidents was due to a segmentation error (two simimilary colored and textured objects were merged).
