The Problem with Striving for Perfection in Self-Driving Cars
03:00 - 11:17 (08:17)
By aiming for perfection and strictly following rules, we may be limiting the potential of self-driving cars, particularly in environments with human drivers or pedestrians. It is important to consider the context in which these cars operate and aim for more adaptable and fluid systems.
