Reply to comment by charronia in MIT researchers makes self-drive car AI significantly more accurate: “Liquid” neural nets, based on a worm’s nervous system, can transform their underlying algorithms on the fly, giving them unprecedented speed and adaptability by lughnasadh

Did you read it and understand what is going on? Machine learning by nature is always evolving and modifying itself, that is what makes it good. That said, it can still be saved in a form that doesn't change, like what they would use as different versions for cars.

Some parts from the article to reread.

> “Their method is beating the competition by several orders of magnitude without sacrificing accuracy,” said Sayan Mitra, a computer scientist at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. > > As well as being speedier, Hasani said, their newest networks are also unusually stable, meaning the system can handle enormous inputs without going haywire. “The main contribution here is that stability and other nice properties are baked into these systems by their sheer structure,” said Sriram Sankaranarayanan, a computer scientist at the University of Colorado, Boulder. Liquid networks seem to operate in what he called “the sweet spot: They are complex enough to allow interesting things to happen, but not so complex as to lead to chaotic behavior.”

The “AI” that we have now is not in anyway intelligent. It’s just the marketing team throwing around buzzwords to make their product sound fancy.

It’s literally just a helper tool.

Your pretense about jailbreaking it is ... nonsensical. It's code. It does not change it's code. It may (if any) retrain itself with new data.

It's software - don't forget that. It does not linger around and reflect "itself". It's started, loaded into memory and unloaded if not in use.

When people drive a car, they look at the moving objects around them so quick visual recognition of the position of objects and their expected trajectory is necessary.

So the object's features will need to be used to predict the trajectory, such as the angle the object is facing and their turn signals.

The distance of the object may be determined quickly if there is 3 video cameras pointing at the same direction but can see different distances so the distance is according to which video camera is getting the clear visual.

The videos probably should be low resolution and just 3 colours, red, yellow and green since only these 3 colours have meaning on the road.

People are, indeed, liability nightmares.

They’re easily distracted, highly variable in vision acuity and intelligence, unpredictable, prone to fatigue, and their judgment is readily compromised by any number of external factors.

If cars were invented today, humans would almost certainly be banned from driving them.

"The reason I was at the adult book store is that my car's worm brain drove me there on autopilot."

"Okay... but you spent $74 dollars there."

"Worm brain, honey. It was the worm brain."

Not sure of this sub is like /r/science and if this will get nuked, but it's funny because that line about liquid is almost what the guy in Ex Machina says about his new brain prototype.

Yes, obviously they would. Anything but "peak human" is illness if you knew what you were doing as a medical provider, and had the tools required to manipulate their body. (mostly their active genome in each cell)

Even "peak human" isn't really good enough, you have just 1 heart and blood vessels can burst from bad luck. So really good future doctors would fix this.
