It was a race in the Mojave Desert from Barstow to Primm Nevada. They gave out a 1 million prize for anyone that would have completed the course as well as DARPA contracts to go with. Also my vehicle, Spirit, was number one qualifier at California Speedway for The Big Race. We also, with a 94 Jeep Cherokee and $750,000, were the first autonomous vehicle to climb Pikes Peak in Colorado 8 years before Google did it.

      I disagree that the project is a "joke", I think it could actually end up being the fastest racing series to ever exist and be incredible to watch but I absolutely agree that they wanted to make it into a joke because eventually the engineering teams would get all the kinks out of the system and the AI, once it figures out how to properly race, would utterly destroy any human driver and seriously degrade the F1 racing scene if not completely kill it.

    • @saikalyan99
      @saikalyan99 Месяц назад +74

      The project in itself is no joke, because if people start taking it seriously there would be many improvements in self driving, also there will no longer be a g force limiting factor anymore and the cars can be pushed to absolute limit until tyres complain.

    I remember probably close to 10 years ago now I randomly came across an Autonomous Vehicle Challenge competition in Vegas or something which was broadcast live, where different universities/companies were competing to drive around a road network, with dirt roads, rough roads etc.
    Every car had essentially a giant roof box of sensors, cameras, and everything needed to make it move by itself and they were all either stationary, rolling an inch before braking and repeating over and over or driving 3km/h.
    The fact that the technology has reached the point where they can be "raced" on a track is nothing short of amazing, the fact that this has all been compacted down into the size/weight of an F1 car is even more brilliant.
    This doesnt really detract from the technology, it gives the technology a much larger audience, and it gives universities and companies the ability to realise that maybe it is something they can accomplish better than the current competition.
    If they werent allowed to race until every bug was worked out it would possibly be another decade, however, letting the wider public see what we can do right now drives interest.

      Rather autonomous racing focuses on the team itself as they need to not only build the car but create an AI capable of racing, these teams are putting hundreds or even thousands of hours into the car, and they all want to get the win, just like F1, NASCAR, WRC, all have massive teams in the background.
      And yes autonomous vehicles are best suited to roles like mines, trucking, buses, taxis. But like with all other forms of motorsport, the technology that is developed by these teams will be repackaged and used in a wide range of uses, and racing these in competitions will see this technology develop faster as people have something to look to achieve.

And they are huuuuuumans, they do stupidiest errors, make huge pileup in 100% safe conditions, squash the whole school class when trying to reach water bottle (yes, Greenacres school) and so on. So theoretically autonomous cars have great advantage in everything - speed, traffic dencity, safety, independency of human stupidity, booze and drugs, bad mood and fatigue.
      If my van would have ability to switch to autonomous drive on highways and other main roads it would be great advantage, saving me lot of time, money and risks.

    2-3 months is criminally not enough to produce a half-decent product, and the fact that they even managed to do this says a lot about the kind of talent available that wasn't allowed to show itself. The code for something like this would be tens or even hundreds of thousands of lines long, and even writing something like that is an immense task in itself, not to mention debugging it and going through integration hell to put it into the car. Here I was shitting on it myself until I heard they did this in 2 months, then my opinion completely flipped. 2 minutes round a track that F1 cars do in 1:25 isn't too far off, especially in slower cars. Hopefully the organisers hold it again properly in a year, this time giving the teams EVERY SINGLE SECOND THEY CAN to make sure that it's actually a good event to watch.

    • @xxbeatuupzz
      @xxbeatuupzz 27 дней назад +5

      @eroffroad5438 because self driving technology today isn't done in 2 months, and has to deal with cars that are either travelling in roughly the same direction at roughly the same speeds in predefined areas (which makes the code a lot more simple) or going at less than a quarter of the speed, giving the computer way more time to make an accurate decision. And again, a decade of work compared to 2 months.

    Time or not, this whole event is a perfect demonstration of the limits of AI; EDGE CASES.

    2:13 Honestly I would say that was a bit of an Esteban Ocon/Pierre Ghasly moment.

    This is a fantastic video! I laughed through the entire thing! Begging for money at the end was the topper. 😂.

    Well thank god for those spoliers. The amount of down force needed to stop those cars spinning into the stands, due to those speeds, must be incredible

    This is the only video of yours that I've seen, but it's an insta-subscribe. Thanks for the awesome entertainment

    I am no AI hype believer at all, but I find the experiment interesting. Something I would love seeing was if it could be possible to have real drivers successfully controlling these cars remotely on rigs or something like that.. that could be fun.

    "As long as that F1 driver is Lance Stroll" LOL, that was brutal! This looked like a Nikita Mazepin F1 career highlight reel.
