💥 What’s New in AI: How DeepMind and Waymo Train Self-Driving Car Models?

Training deep neural networks regularly is a never-ending challenge in artificial intelligence (AI) projects. If training can be overwhelming for simple machine learning scenarios, can you imagine the efforts for systems such as self-driving vehicles that need to perform a large variety of tasks in real-time in constantly-changing environments? Recently, Alphabet’s subsidiaries Waymo and DeepMind partnered to find a more efficient process to train self-driving vehicles algorithms and their work took them back to one of the cornerstones of our history as species: evolution. 

Not surprisingly, self-driving vehicles have forced AI researchers to reimagine the traditional approaches to training deep neural networks and come up with innovative alternatives →learn more about that from our detailed overview
