Natural Stupidity Eats A.I. Strategy for Breakfast

Description:

In US, average time spent on work commute is 52 mins per day. Autonomous self-driving cars, expected to hit the road soon and could make our mean streets safer and more efficient. This is possible when every single car in the road is autonomous. Currently A.I. driven cars have to deal with natural stupidity (N.S.) and lack of empathy. How do you feel when you get stuck behind a freight train crossing or you are stuck in traffic and a 2 wheeler driving between lanes? Road rages are growing. Research shows that driving was a potent source of autonomy, pleasure and self-expression among motorists. 48% of drivers don't signal to change lanes. Socioeconomic and community characteristics like eating traffic wave by tandem trucks are another example of driving behavior. Will A.I. triumph N.S.?
