Is that a feature or a bug?

Car Learns From Observing Human

So they'll be weaving, texting, cutting me off, and driving 40 mph in the fast lane, and staying put when the light turns green.

Great. So now cars will be flipping us off and cussing us out?

Starman: Okay?

Jenny Hayden: Okay? Are you crazy? You almost got us killed! You said you watched me, you said you knew the rules!

Starman: I do know the rules.

Jenny Hayden: Oh, for your information pal, that was a *yellow* light back there!

Starman: I watched you very carefully. Red light stop, green light go, yellow light go very fast.

When does it start honking the horn, slamming on the brakes, trying to ram the backend of the vehicle in front of it, and running red lights and stop signs?

what's incredible are these machines which learn and perform functions without exact programming

it's exactly how living things learn. this is a rudimentary true AI. “rudimentary” because it does 1 simple function but true nonetheless

As long as the drivers are from somewhere that actually trains people to drive (ie, not America) it’s not a bad plan. I suppose you could use American drivers as negative training.

“learn solely by watching humans drive”
Sorry, but that won’t work. To understand what a human is doing requires another human. Not a program written by a human.

This whole autonomous car thing is just annoying to me. Let’s get the trains in the northeast corridor to run autonomously and safely first and go from there. We have the technology and can’t even get that implemented. This whole self driving car B.S. stinks of a globalist agenda.

OK. I vented now I feel better.

Robocars will never be able to drive in in-climate weather or negotiate parking lots. What will happen is cars will become even more expensive and depreciate even faster because of a glorified cruise control system.

It’s all good until it starts watching Mr. Magoo cartoons.
