According to Taiwan’s “Central News Agency†reported on September 6, Toyota Motor Corporation hired US Department of Defense robotics expert Gill Pratt to develop artificial intelligence (AI) research and plans to invest 50 million US dollars in this field. Toyota's move has added a few points to the computer-aided driving technology competition of the world's top automakers.
However, Toyota said on the 4th that completely unmanned cars will not appear in recent years. In addition, the impact of artificial intelligence and robots on the relationship between people and vehicles is far more complicated than the results obtained by the Google Autopilot experiment.
Toyota's artificial intelligence program will be hosted by Pratt, formerly the manager of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency hosted the Driverless Car Competition in 2005.
Pratt said that Toyota plans to let the driver choose to fully transfer control to the artificial intelligence "head" built into the car in the future, but humans still have the option to maintain driving autonomy, and the pleasure of driving the car will continue to make people happy to manipulate. steering wheel.
Toyota's senior research and development director Ise pointed out that compared to Google, Toyota gives humans the right to choose, so that humans can choose whether they want to drive their own cars. He said: "For us, (a completely unmanned car) is like a train without a train conductor. We still want to be able to sit in the car and control the car."
Ise also took Toyota's vision of autonomous vehicles in comparison with its hybrid electric vehicle Prius. Ise believes that instead of waiting for a fully self-driving car to come out, it is better to add more automation components to existing cars, which will provide these technologies faster for driving, and also lower the price faster.
Toyota said it will provide $25 million in artificial intelligence laboratories from Stanford University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) over the next five years to assist in the development of autonomous driving and home robots. Home robots are another market that Toyota is trying to develop in response to the needs of population ageing. Li Feifei, director of the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, pointed out that part of the research is about the interaction between humans and robots.
