Microsoft and MIT develop AI to fix driverless car 'blind spots'

Microsoft and MIT have partnered on a project to fix so-called virtual'blind spots' which lead driverless cars to make errors. Roads, especially while shared with human drivers, are unpredictable places. Training a self-driving car for every possible situation is a monumental task. The AI developed by Microsoft and MIT compares the action taken by humans in a given scenario to what the driverless car's own AI would do. Where the human decision is more optimal, the vehicle's behaviour is updated for similar future occurrences.
