Stupid Is As Stupid Does
We recently did a blog post entitled AI and Autonomous Cars – A Failed Marriage Someone separately commented on X that their Tesla had just been updated with a new Deep Neural Net that had been trained on clips of driving situations. To try it out, he took the car for a spin to the local shops. It tried to drive through the closed gate of the gated community. It slammed on the anchors when a traffic light turned yellow, nearly getting him rear-ended. It went past the entry to the shopping complex, and tried to enter the Exit. There is an obvious way to train an autonomous car – drive the route and allow it to learn from your inputs, the dynamics of the vehicle, and your outputs. This possibility has been lost by using a resistor network without dynamic memory – calling a network of resistors without memory or feedback an Artificial Neural Network is one of the more stupid things done in AI, but it also highlights the naivety or lack of analytic ability of the huge number
