This startup's AI is smart enough to drive different types of vehicles

Jay Gierak at Ghost, which is based in Mountain View, California, is impressed by Wayve's demonstrations and agrees with the company's overall viewpoint. "The robotics approach is not the right way to do this," says Gierak. But he's not sold on Wayve's total commitment to deep learning. Instead of a single large model, Ghost trains many hundreds of smaller models, each with a specialism. It then hand codes simple rules that tell the self-driving system which models to use in which situations.
