That depends on the location of the sensors on the actual car, doesn't it? I'm really not optimistic about a car company spending extra pennies on sensors they deem as merely 'nice to have'. Yes, they will consider detecting a child running out from behind a parked car as merely 'nice to have'.
Yet they say AI can do important things such as driving, where there is never a correct answer. Or at the very least there will be conflicting correct answers. If an AI drives through a construction site because its map said to follow the road, is it correct?
The thing that makes this news is the fact that the *biggest* competitor's browser was used, and thus the hat was tipped to them so to speak. Why wouldn't the presenter asked his/her self what the best way would be to diffuse the situation. At the least, hat should have been tipped to Mozilla Firefox. While it still would have received guffaws, at least having the day saved by 'open source' is better than having the day saved by Google. The more obscure open source in this case the better, but likely the presenter had to think quickly and needed something that was sure to work.
The ruleset is 1/10 the size in Go as it is with Chess with the only problem being the size of the search space. So what you say isn't really a surprise at all. You pick a game with simple rules and figure out how to deal with the search space, you excel much faster.
I haven't been a fan of Musk, but yeah there's not a lot of news here. As long as the rocket is useful enough times so that it creates a profit and it doesn't destroy more than it benefits, then it just comes down to being part of the cost of business. The trick is to stay ahead financially.
It's interesting that Kodi gets blamed for this. Showbox is side-loadable and *way* easier to use than any streaming plugin in Kodi. Also there are tons of free steaming video sites. There is way more to this than Kodi.
I bought a connect with our XBox 360 and I like it. It's nice for the kids to be able to move around on rainy days. It did a good job at what it promised to do and I was surprised how accurate it was to control. Is anything replacing it? This is the only kind of device I could envision replacing a mouse some day. Controllers with gyroscopes just don't cut it.
Lol... and then be prepared to not be able to drag and drop icons from a KDE finder to a Gnome app and lose pretty much every other desktop integration.
Believe me, I'm not going to argue that it is not within human nature to 'be attentive' without being involved. However, if such studies do exist then how was Tesla allowed to put Autopilot on the market at all? I mean most places you can't text and drive, this should fall along the same lines.
The original comment that 5.1 is nothing but marketing only makes sense if you could do this with standard stereo speakers. There was no mention of 'special technology' speakers. I just bought a brand new surround sound system for $250 all in and I love how it sounds. How much will these special speakers cost? Who cares what two speakers can do if they cost more than $50 each?
You underestimate the things a computer is going to do when it gets in a situation there are conflicting rules for, or no rules for, or when it misinterprets sensor data. If only 30,000 humans die in manual car accidents a year, then they're doing pretty good considering the millions of drivers.
The more worrisome thing is that there probably won't be civil lawsuits because of a big disclaimer in the owners manual. People will be too stupid to think about the ramifications of allowing software to dictate whether they live or die until there is an accident that is so stupid that it is inconceivable that a human would have ever done it. It will happen eventually.
What an odd comment. You're proposing humans perceive a sound coming from behind them or from all around them in exactly the same way they perceive a sound coming from the left and right of the TV? If someone sneaks up behind you, you're going to be so confused.
Oh my lord. Yes by all means, lets just have hospitals schools and firestations in heavily populated places as well. Let's not build and maintain roads there either, or pick up trash or provide clean water.
Autonomy proponents seem to be all over the map with regards to whether it is actually safe or not. At one end of the range you have, "Autonomous driving is already way safer than people". On the other end you have, "people are stupid and might trust autonomous driving". Which the hell is it? It's two-faced and you can't have it both ways. If Tesla thinks Autopilot is safe, it should be insured as such. If autopilot is active then driver is not responsible. Otherwise it's not safe. It's that simple.

Probably should have added a Pokemon in there somewhere.
Even under parked cars

The computer doesn't have to see everything, it just has to see further than the human. The fact that it can is not a surprise at all.

Computers HATE huge search spaces.
Until their processors grow large enough to deal with them. That is just an evolutionary problem.
AI won't be revolutionary until it can deal with the exact opposite kind of problem; where rules CANNOT be explicitly defined.

Use a picture of your wristwatch and only you will know what two times of day you can log in! Mwaahaha.
I don't plug the xbox into the internet unless I have to.

Exactly, so maybe you should just not have health insurance since affecting others seems otherwise unavoidable.
Lol... and then be prepared to not be able to drag and drop icons from a KDE finder to a Gnome app and lose pretty much every other desktop integration.
Then please don't use the same group health insurance company I do.
Think of a better economic system, because open capitalism is way too easy for large corporations to game in their favor.

What kind of cramped spaces do you use a tablet in where there wouldn't be enough room for a laptop? Maybe you shouldn't sleep in a coffin.
