Amazon's DeepRacer League drives Chicago students into world of AI, machine learning

Students on Chicago's South Side got a deep dive into the world of artificial intelligence and machine learning on Saturday. "We're using machines and learning to code a car then racing it," said student Trevaughn Scott. Amazon Web Service's Deep Racer League partnered with the Chicago Collegiate Middle School to bring the experience front and center for students. The students train and code a virtual model of a car and then it downloads into this physical version which races around a track. "They get to learn that the AI is not perfect," said Kendall Hudson, senior program manager.
