The AI world has shifted into high gear as a new approach supported by the enormous computational power now available in small packages can provide real-time systems of enormous benefit. What a world we live in!
"New artificial intelligence systems - like that embodied in Stanley - are now capable of evaluating a huge amount of data from sensors and then making probabilistic decisions.
'The prior opinion of many informed observers, based on decades of disappointing experimental results, was that the problems were so hard that they would remain unsolved for many decades yet,' said Hans Moravec, a Carnegie Mellon University robotics researcher who was one of the nation's first developers of autonomous vehicles during the 1970's. 'But now everyone knows differently,' he said. 'The interest, effort and investment in the broader field is sure to skyrocket.'"
