We need to get humans out of the loop.
Amazing how rugged they are after long falls.

Why, what happens on that day? Don't you plan on living longer than that?Spinnor said:I hope to live to the day robots replace lifeguards.

As a human myself, I kind of get insulted by this type of comment.Spinnor said:I hope to live to the day robots replace lifeguards.

I only watched the beginning of the video (people look at me funny if I'm laughing hysterically at my desk/cubicle), but apart from the monkey issue, it looked like a lot of the problems were the drone running low on battery power and making a pre-programmed soft landing to save itself. That's problematic when that happens over water, it would seem...Spinnor said:I would guess that most of the crashes in the video above are from human error.
On what basis can you state this? I know it is the idea but, as far as I know, proof of concept is still missing. Based on some examples in the video of my previous post, it seems that AI is as limited as humans are (smart programs creating stupid programs).Spinnor said:AI will just get better.

As small commercially available drones are getting more sophisticated and more expensive, they are replacing human decisions and overcoming more of the the problems for their fails.berkeman said:a lot of the problems were the drone running low on battery power and making a pre-programmed soft landing to save itself.

I know there is still room for improvement in robotics and AI. But will it get to a point where it will be autonomous and better than humans on every point? Especially when considering increased complexity and mass production. I never seen such reliability in machines until now (which are much simpler than whatever future robots or AI would be).Spinnor said:Humans are about as good as they will get [...] AI will just get better.
jack action said:better than humans on every point?
BillTre said:However, for particular jobs, like remote controlling of small drones, a task specific designed drone will work better, over the long run, than an easily distracted human.
No, I'm not laughing and I respect your opinion (I may be wrong). I'm just trying to understand this point of view and where it comes from.Spinnor said:I think AI will keep getting better till, you may laugh, it puts math and physics theorists out of business, surgeons, comedians, poetes, all human professions will be surpassed by AI except maybe the oldest profession. It may be hundreds of years but if humankind can avoid major kill-offs and disruption to our rapid pace of technological development we will get there IMO. This Humans will create.
You are already laughing aren't you?
You are probably wrong on that. Sex is what drives a lot of the technologies. If AI and robots go mainstream, it is probably a safe bet to say that the first one will be a sex robot. Life-like, full-size sex dolls already exist, it is just a matter of time before they talk and are animated. I can certainly imagine someone opening a place (a motel?) where you can rent one of these robots by the hour. Cheap - and legal - prostitution ... Yeah! I'm sure there's no money in that!Spinnor said:all human professions will be surpassed by AI except maybe the oldest profession.

A drone fail compilation is a video or collection of videos showcasing various drone mishaps and accidents. These compilations often include crashes, technical malfunctions, and other unexpected occurrences.
Monkeys can be curious and mischievous animals, and they may see a drone as a threat or a toy. If a monkey gets hold of a drone, they may try to hit it or grab it with a stick, potentially causing damage to the drone.
While there have been some documented cases of monkeys interacting with drones and causing accidents, it is not a common occurrence. Most drone fails involve human error or technical issues rather than interactions with animals.
If you are flying a drone in an area known to have monkeys, it is best to keep a safe distance from them and avoid areas where they may be using sticks or other objects as tools. It is also important to follow all drone safety guidelines and regulations to minimize the risk of accidents.
In most cases, drone fails involving animals do not cause any harm to the animals. However, it is important to respect their space and not fly the drone too close to them, as it could potentially cause stress or injury. If an animal does interact with a drone, it is best to land the drone and remove it from the area to avoid any further incidents.
