Craig Doty II, a Tesla owner, narrowly avoided a collision after his vehicle, in Full Self-Driving (FSD) mode, allegedly steered towards an oncoming train.
Nighttime dashcam footage from earlier this month in Ohio captured the harrowing scene: Doty’s Tesla rapidly approaching a train with no apparent deceleration. He insisted his Tesla was in Full Self-Driving mode when it barreled towards the train crossing without slowing down.
If self-driving A.I. models need a workforce to help identify trains, we could probably assemble an army of toddlers willing to be paid in cookies. My friend’s kid gets HYPE and yells “TRAIN!” when he sees one. He can also reliably identify cows. He calls most construction equipment “big truck” but that might be good enough. If a Tesla thinks a backhoe is a big truck, it’ll avoid it.
And that’s the biggest issue so far with “AI.” It’s about as intelligent as a newborn.
No, newborns rapidly take in new information and learn. “AI” is just a sophisticated text probability model. It doesn’t know anything. It isn’t learning how things work. It just regurgitates.
It’s like the difference between a student who understands the concepts versus memorizes the test answers.
Newborns can’t even utter one cohesive word. I don’t get the point of making such an obviously false claims about anything.
A wise Jedi once said, “The ability to speak does not make you intelligent”
Intelligence is not binary, but a spectrum.
