Topic: autonomous vehicles

We have entered a golden age of artificial intelligence research, driven mainly by the advances in the artificial neural networks over the last several decades. Applications of these techniques—to machine vision, speech recognition, autonomous vehicles, natural language, and many other domains—are coming so quickly that many observers predict that the long-elusive goal of “Artificial General Intelligence” (AGI) is within our grasp. However, we still cannot build a machine capable of building a nest, stalking prey, or loading a dishwasher. I will describe how evolution may have shaped the algor
