01/23/23 • 30 min

I speak again with my friend Maroof Farook who is an AI Engineer at Nvidia. [Note: Maroof’s views are his and not that of his employer.] This is a continuation of our previous conversation about self-driving cars. We discuss AI challenges including humans on bicycles, bicycles on bike racks, motorcycles, and other things easy for a teenager with a driving permit to figure out but hard for a computer. "Roads with fully autonomous vehicles will be a safer roads." That's what companies like Tesla developing self-driving cars are pitching. Is there any truth to that? We find out. Please enjoy this episode. Here’s my conversation with Maroof Farook.

I speak with my friend Maroof Farook who is an AI Engineer at Nvidia. [Note: Maroof’s views are his and not that of his employer.] We discuss what’s different about the self-driving approaches of Tesla and Alphabet/Google/Waymo. We cover the phases of autonomous driving, from level 1 to level 5, the capabilities of each phase, and at which phase we can eat a cheeseburger while our car drives itself. Finally, we discuss why one of the most challenging problems of self-driving cars are stop signs.

Metaverse is Matrix | The Simulation | Virtual Reality | Self-Driving Cars | Autonomous Vehicles Part 3 | Episode 6

A 100% digital version of the world's driving environment is being created AKA The Metaverse. Think an immersive virtual reality environment like Grand Theft Auto with less destruction, profanity, and mayhem. The goal? Have a self-driving AI not be able to tell if it’s driving in the real-world or a simulation. Can we fool AI into thinking it's not AI? Don’t freak out. Or freak out. The Matrix is being coded as we speak. I speak again with my friend Maroof Farook, an AI Engineer at Nvidia.
