TL;DR

Using machine learning to improve human-machine cooperation in driving with Open Pilot.

Transcript

uh hi I'm wishi I work for research at comma uh today I'm going to talk about uh how we view driving with open pilot as a human machine uh cooperation problem and how we use machine learning to improve things so this is how we drive uh without open pilot as a human basically the driver uh is the only actor here but with open pilot the the driver's ...
