I bet that we know much, much more about CNNs than about our brains.
And today pretty much all the cars are controlled by something that we don’t know basically nothing about. Why this doesn’t worry you?
- mannykannot 7y agoWell, we know quite a bit about how humans perform at the relevant levels of abstraction, and that's the level at which driving automation systems should be evaluated. They are not there yet, but there's no reason to believe the problems are insurmountable.
- kahnjw 7y agoThe fields of neuroscience and psychology are far more advanced compared with the infantile field of deep learning. Humans also learn independently from one another which means outlier events aren’t as much of a problem. You have the ability to observe the world around you, say you see an accident due to some rare weather event, and learn some abstract lesson extremely quickly. A CNN has to learn this over millions of samples out of band. EDIT: clarification in last sentence.
- snovv_crash 7y agoBased on the number of actual reproducible controlled experiments done on CNNs, I'm not convinced the field is less advanced than psychology at this point.
