AI or not, it is no more than a little amusing to watch a robotic car make an unforced error of wrecking walls on a racetrack. On a recent unmanned test, a self-driving Roborace car illustrates the challenges of putting AI on a real racing circuit, and fails miserably. Unlike road-oriented driverless cars, racers have to routinely navigate at high speeds where there’s less time to make decisions and react to hazards.
