How soon will self driving be completely reliable and like human reactions and decisions?
If laws allowed it, do you think autonomous cars could work on our road today?
Isn't one of the most complicated problems with autonomous vehicles when a human tries to override the system? If you have not already answered this question, maybe you have an opinion?
What are some differences from working with cutting edge technology in the US and other countries?
Given the scope of racial inequities endured by black Americans, and disadvantaged people around the world, the implementation of A.I. presents as a viable soultion to eliminate race-based bias in socio-economic, education and judicial sectors. What are the plans, if any, to deploy A.I. in address of the above?
IBM Watson playing Jeopardy was a scam. Watson got the prompts in text form. No speech-to-text, and much faster than the host could read them aloud to the humans. In that game, a 0.5 second advantage is huge.
The productivity boost resulting from the Industrial Revolution is a LOT steeper than the curve you show.
Does the machine learning become as effective as it does because it has a lack of human emotion?
I fly drones and have not been able to fly in remote areas that don't have wifi or strong wifi at least. What technology needs to be in place for autonomous flight and operations to take place?
Do any of your vehicles employ vehicles communicating with each other as they approach an intersection to optimize collision avoidance?
Thirty years ago I learned LISP to be ready for AI. What languages are used these days?
Do you project that quantum computing will accelerate AI algorithm development, and in what timeframe?
Are quantum computers useful in AI Learning?
Do you have assitanceships in your department for B.S. M.S students?
How can we make sure in the future is our students taking classes and taking exams, not machine taking classes ?
How can students prepare in highschool themselves to enter AI discipline?
How long until machines will be able to change their own code and (evolve) just as good or possibly better than humans can?
When do you predict this technology will be available to public? When do you think driverless cars will become mainstream?
Will programmers ever become obsolete?
The book Talking to Strangers is by Malcolm Gladwell.
But what about the problem that current AI vision can’t always see black people? Is anyone solving that problem?
Do you agree with Elon Musk that “A.I. is far more dangerous than nukes.”
How will autonomus vehicles and their vision systems be able to adapt to objects in extreme weather conditions in various parts of world? For example in a blizzard conditions.
