Podcasts about autonomy lab

In this episode of the Artificial Intelligence and Equality Initiative podcast, Senior Fellows Anja Kaspersen and Wendell Wallach are joined by former U.S. Navy pilot Mary “Missy” Cummings, a professor at Duke University, director of the school's Humans and Autonomy Lab, and a world leading researcher in human-autonomous system collaboration and robotics. The conversation touches upon the maturity of current AI systems applications and key conundrums in AI research to make sure humans are not a design afterthought.

Who better to talk to about autonomous cars than a professor of the subject? Missy Cummings is currently a Professor in the Duke University Pratt School of Engineering, the Duke Institute of Brain Sciences, and is the director of the Humans and Autonomy Laboratory and Duke Robotics. Her research interests include human-unmanned vehicle interaction, human-autonomous system collaboration, human-systems engineering, public policy implications of unmanned vehicles, and the ethical and social impact of technology.Read her paper here: https://hal.pratt.duke.edu/sites/hal.pratt.duke.edu/files/u39/2020-min.pdfhttps://pratt.duke.edu/faculty/missy-cummings *There's an edit in the middle of the show because her connection froze for a few minutes.Listeners of The Smoking Tire Podcast receive 30% off Keeper Unlimited and Family plans by using promo code SMOKINGTIRE30 at checkout or visiting http://www.keeper.io/smokingtire JB Weld is available at https://www.JBWeld.com, Walmart, Amazon, Home Depot, Lowe's, Autozone, Advanced Auto Parts, NAPA, O'Reilly, Michael's, and more.Go to http://www.AutoTempest.com/tst to learn more.

Our conversation with Dr. Missy Cummings, Director of Duke's Humans and Autonomy Lab and Duke Robotics. She talks about her experiences serving as one of the U.S. Navy's first female fighter pilots, and how her experiences witnessing the tragedy that resulted from the failure of autonomous systems, coupled with her involvement in the policy sphere as a member of the Defense Innovation Board, has influenced her career as a researcher.

AUTONOMOUS TRUCKS SPECIAL REPORT: Mary “Missy” Cummings calls herself a techno-realist. By day, she's a professor at Duke University and the director of Duke's Humans and Autonomy lab. Her day-to-day work is in artificial intelligence and robotics, and she’s quite skeptical about some of claims of autonomous driving’s current practitioners. Although she says she's 100% behind robotic trucks in the long term, she says the hype surrounding autonomous cars and trucks has pushed far beyond what the technology is actually capable of today. Find out why Dr. Cummings is concerned about how fast autonomous trucks appear to be approaching commercialization.

“We’re not even close to developing fully driverless cars,” urges Duke University professor Missy Cummings, a former fighter pilot and the director of the Humans and Autonomy Lab at Duke. She explores where automation currently is and paints a picture of the future with humans as integral parts of autonomous systems.

The first pedestrian killed by a car in the western hemisphere was on New York’s Upper West Side in 1899.  One newspaper warned that “the automobile has tasted blood.” Today, driverless cars present their own mix of technological promise and potential danger. Can the reaction to that 1899 pedestrian tragedy help us navigate current arguments about safety, blame, commerce, and public space?

How close are we in having completely autonomous systems? How will autonomous vehicles and drones integrate in our lives? Will we accept "killer robots" to be developed? In this week's interview, we talk to Mary "Missy" Cummings, Director of the Humans and Autonomy Lab at Duke University. Missy is also co-chair of the World Economic Forum's Council on the Future of Artificial Intelligence and Robotics. "A Glimpse into the Future” gives you access to insights from some of the world's leading experts, who explore how breakthrough technologies and innovative ideas can help us actively shape our future.

In this episode, I’m joined by Missy Cummings, head of Duke University’s Humans and Autonomy Lab and professor in the department of mechanical engineering. In addition to being an accomplished researcher, Missy also became one of the first female fighter pilots in the US Navy following the repeal of the Combat Exclusion Policy in 1993. We discuss Missy’s research into the infrastructural and operational challenges presented by autonomous vehicles, including cars, drones and unmanned aircraft. We also cover trust, explainability, and interactions between humans and AV systems. This was an awesome interview and i'm glad we’re able to bring it to you!

  In the second episode of Futuropolis, the podcast that explores what everyday life will be like in the future, we’re tackling your daily commute. Sitting in traffic doesn’t have to be stressful and frustrating. In the future, you may be able to lean back and relax while your car watches the road for you.   We’ve been promised autonomous cars for what seems like forever—and our archives have proof. In 1961, we predicted that cars would be directed by a punched tape so you could sleep behind the wheel. And in 1967, we anticipated you could twirl a dial on a car’s dashboard, set it to your destination, and then sit back to read the morning paper on the way to work. But maybe this time it’s for real. To find out, we talked to Missy Cummings, the director of Duke’s Humans and Autonomy Lab; Bryant Walker Smith, a law professor at South Carolina University who specializes in self-driving vehicles; and futurist Glen Hiemstra. And while we may not be quite ready to hand over the reins—er, steering wheel—we’d gladly take the opportunity to nap, read a book, or even get in a workout while the car drives itself.   Futuropolis is a biweekly podcast on the Panoply network. Tune in every other Wednesday for more sneak peeks at the future. This week's episode is sponsored by Warby Parker, a new concept in eyewear.
