The Tesla P100 (Developed by nVidia in collaboration with other companies) will be the 'brains' behind a driverless formula car designed by Daniel Simon.

RoboRace will take place this year on Formula E tracks.

This combines two of my favorite things in life; nVidia, formula racing, and AI.

1 + 2 = 3?

0, 1, 2.

As long as we don't see the sequence 44 49 45 20 48 55 4d 41 4e 21 within the core dump, I think we'll be fine.

44 49 45 20 48 55 4d 41 4e 21

As a matter of interest, what exactly are those? Google was not helpful and the only other interesting number I could think of was "09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0"...

Because Google is not a hex to text converter :P

Mhm. That's a bit of a letdown. I was hoping for something more interesting.

It's kinda frightening/exciting how quickly AI is emerging.

It's even more frightening how quickly people are willing to accept AI despite it having demonstrated over and over again being not production ready and not intelligent in any way.

There is a difference between being able to beat a human at chess (or Go, more recently), and being intelligent.

Google itself just demonstrated how fucking useless so-called AI is. Trying to find one of the incidents that I'm referring to, I entered "pitot tube" and Google didn't even come up with its usual smart ass "Showing results for pilot (Did you mean pitot? Click to show results for pitot.)".

No. It simply ruled out pitot alltogether. That seems to be a new thing. Because hey, Google is so smart, fucking AI knows better what you mean than you do.

The incident which I was going to refer to, or rather incidents, there's many of them (such as LH-1829 on Nov 5 2014 where the crew was barely able to save their lives after disabling the computer by pulling wires -- funnily that was just 3 months before Germanwings 9525 which crashed into that mountain after descending in an exactly identical way -- but hey, it was the copilot doing that on purpose, only just... we have no proof of that being the case, other than the word of the BEA spokesman, the tape which allegedly proves it is still super, super secret) all have the same pattern:

Some component (pitot tube, angle of attack sensor, whatever) fucks up, which is actually no biggie, and the AI goes "Oh, right, let's just turn the airplane upside down, or let's just fly into that mountain. Because hey, I am so smart, and although everything was perfectly normal a millisecond ago, now my sensors say I'm suddenly 20,000 ft too high and 200 knots too fast, so that must defintively be the case.

As long as no people die, it's shoved unter the carpet, but if people die, the official story is always that it was the pilot's fault, especially if BEA and Airbus are involved. That's what they've been doing since the early 1990s. Whenever the AI fucks up and an airplane leaves a long trench in a nearby forest, it was the pilot's fault.

I don't care if nVidia lets a formula race car drive autonomously. People who go to car races expect crashes and kinda expect being killed in the worst case, too. I don't care if Google has self-driving cars in the USA which neglect the way of right and ram busses (because yeah, the AI is always right). I don't live in the USA and do not intend to ever go there in my life, so they can really just do what they want. I don't mind if Amazon has autonomous drones flying over your house and crash unexpectedly in your garden (or... right on your head). Hey, who knows, you might find something valuable in the parcel.

But I don't want any of that shit anywhere near me.

It really bothers me that Daimler-Benz jumps on the same train and already has working prototypes. People who are totally clueless but nevertheless in a position to make decisions (like our minister of traffic), say "Oh, how wonderful, such a great invention". I certainly do mind being rammed by a 1.5-ton Daimler on the highway at 100+ km/h. I certainly do mind being run over at the next pedestrian crossing in my town because the fucking AI which is driving that car is always right.
