(SH) Victor is off this month watering his new plants in Glasgow, so I'm joined by a guest. Who you may ask? It's only Paul Driscoll, AKA The Drisk, that's who. Paul's encyclopedic knowledge of gaming has put him in good stead to found the University Of Reet Good Gaming in Central Birmingham. 1000s of students from all across Bartley Green have flocked to the university to listen to Mr. Drisk do some spiel about ancient pixel history and to be learnt right up. Apologies folks: some, if not all, of that last paragraph may contain factual discrepancies, inconsistencies, and downright lies. I get carried away sometimes. But Paul IS on the show though. So get listening, b!tches!

dRisk uses a unique approach to increasing AV safety: collecting real-life scenarios and data from accidents, insurance reports, and more to train autonomous vehicles on extreme edge cases. With their advanced simulation tool, they can accurately recreate and test these scenarios, allowing AV developers to improve the performance and safety of their vehicles. Join us as Chess and Rav delve into the exciting world of AVs and the challenges they face in creating safer and more efficient transportation systems.Key Points From This Episode:Introducing dRisk Founder and CEO, Chess Stetson, and COO, Rav Babbra.dRisk's mission to help autonomous vehicles become better drivers than humans.The UK government's interest in autonomous vehicles to solve transportation problems.Rav's career background; how the CAVSim competition put dRisk on his radar.How dRisk's software presents real-life scenarios and extreme edge cases to test AVs.Chess defines extreme edge cases in the AV realm and explains where AVs typically go wrong.How the company uses natural language processing and AI-based techniques to improve simulation accuracy for AV testing.The metrics used to ensure the accuracy of the simulations.What makes AI different from humans in an AV context.The benchmark for the capability of AVs; the tolerance for human driver error versus AV error.Why third-party testing is a necessity for AI.dRisk's assessment process for autonomous vehicles.The delicate balance between innovation and regulation.Examples of AV edge cases.Tweetables:“At the time, no autonomous vehicles could ever actually drive on the UK's roads. And that's where Chess and the team at dRisk have done such great piece of work.” — Rav Babbra [0:07:25]“If you've got an unprotected cross-traffic turn, that's where a lot of things traditionally go wrong with AVs.” —Chess Stetson [0:08:45]“We can, in an automated way, map out metrics for what might or might not constitute a good test and cut out things that would be something like a hallucination.” —Chess Stetson [0:13:59]“The thing that makes AI different than humans is that if you have a good driver's test for an AI, it's also a good training environment for an AI. That's different [from] humans because humans have common sense.” — Chess Stetson [0:15:10]“If you can really rigorously test [AI] on its ability to have common sense, you can also train it to have a certain amount of common sense.” — Chess Stetson [0:15:51]“The difference between an AI and a human is that if you had a good test, it's equivalent to a good training environment.” — Chess Stetson [0:16:29]“I personally think it's not unrealistic to imagine AV is getting so good that there's never a death on the road at all.” — Chess Stetson [0:18:50]“One of the reasons that we're in the UK is precisely because the UK is going to have no tolerance for autonomous vehicle collisions.” — Chess Stetson [0:20:08]“Now, there's never a cow in the highway here in the UK, but of course, things do fall off lorries. So if we can train against a cow sitting on the highway, then the next time a grand piano falls off the back of a truck, we've got some training data at least that helps it avoid that.” — Rav Babbra [0:35:12]“If you target the worst case scenario, everything underneath, you've been able to capture and deal with.” — Rav Babbra [0:36:08]Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Chess StetsonChess Stetson on LinkedInRav Babbra on LinkedIndRISKHow AI HappensSama

 In this episode, we learn about the common challenges companies face when it comes to developing and deploying their AV and how Stantec uses military and aviation best practices to remove human error and ensure safety and reliability in AV operations.

Doing amazing things for autonomous vehicles… In a trans-Atlantic lunch – with one guest in California and the other  in the UK – Leon Daniels meets with dRISK.  Chatting with CEO Chess Stetson in California and Business Development/Programme Manager Rav Babbra in the UK, they talk about their work with the government-owned Centre for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (C-CAV). We hear how they have been tasked by the UK government, through the C-CAVS to build the ‘ultimate driving test' – not for human drivers, but to test self-driving cars. Their test will determine that autonomous vehicles (AVs) are not simply ‘as safe' as those driven by humans, but much safer than human drivers. We learn that the test is being used with current AV technologies, to establish how we can get to a ‘vision zero' (for accidents) in the UK. Leon asks why it is acceptable that 1,500 people a year in the UK are killed by human drivers, yet critics say that AVs must have zero accidents? He discusses why people are not as outranged by existing UK road deaths as they should be, given that 1,500 deaths a year wouldn't be acceptable in industry or commerce, for example. Chess opines that the UK's ‘zero vision' towards accidents is a “World-leading vision and a much more holistic approach to safety than many other places.” He explains how the driving test for AVs will be used by the DVLA/DVSA when an AV is to be certified for use in the UK. Like the UK driving test for humans, the AV version will present a range of scenarios to test the AV. We learn how, using Transport for London (TfL)'s 1,000 traffic CCTV cameras, dRISK has been capturing ‘edge cases' - high-risk incidents - and re-creating them in the simulation environment to see what the AV will do.  And, he poses the oft-asked questions: Will an AV stop for a child running out from behind an ice-cream van, or will it kill it? Other questions discussed include telling the difference between a real human and a dummy. Chess explains why an AV will be able to recognise that a child dressed in a costume as a green traffic light, is recognised as a child crossing the road, not a green traffic light, even though it's a situation the AV has never come across before. “AVs predict what's going to happen, not what has happened – and they can do that now already – for example, how to deal with the guy in the chicken suit at a level crossing,” he says. The wide-ranging conversation turns to the ‘naked highways'  - ones without physical traffic signs and traffic lights – as the AV ‘talks' with the infrastructure and receives instructions. The thorny subject of cyclists and their interaction with AVs is mulled over. Says Chess “Cyclists and human drivers never get on; AVs will be able to negotiate their way around them.” Then they look at how automation will develop. Will it be a progressive change, or an overnight switch from manually-driven cars to AVs? This leads onto to the increasing automation of existing new vehicles, with systems such as lane keeping and emergency braking already mandatory. The move to full automation in commercial vehciles is examined, and the reasons for hub-to-hub trunking with trucks being the most likely first-adopters. The wider applications for automation are explored, with its use to de-risk the entire transport network.  We discover that already dRISK's software is used to re-route human driven vehicles to reduce risk. What would be the positive effect on fleet managers if by rerouting, they could reduce their accident claims by 10% in a year? How artificial intelligence (AI) uses data to plan routes that are safest at certain times of day, is explained. Rav discusses how the integration of AI into transport is no pipe dream, and talks about how dRISK re-purposed its ‘object detection' software for Covid, to take feeds from TfL's roadside CCTV cameras. In this new guise, AI counted people and vehicles, to see the effects of lockdown and monitor social distancing. The results are fed back to councils which can establish if the measures it put in place, for example barriers for pavement widening or space for tables and cafes, are working or not. It can also identify hotspots, for example at pedestrian crossings, where reducing the wait time reduces pedestrian congestion. The conversation concludes with Rav talking about two surveys that are currently open about fleet managers' opinions on the risks of vehicle routing, and the public's opinion on AVs.

Come join Metz and Drisk, as they air their gaming skeletons and go through some of those terrible games they all quite like. Games covered are: 1. Last Battle (MDrive) 2. Night Breed : The interactive Movie (Amiga) 3. Colin The Cleaner (Spectrum) 4. Krazy Ivan (PS1 / Sat) 5. KikStart 2 (Spectrum) 6. Pacman (2600) 7. Cruisin' USA (N64) 8. Last Action Hero (Amiga)

The Bitmap Brothers were UK gaming's first Rockstars. They appeared in our computer magazines looking more suited to the cover of NME rather than the bedroom coders we'd become accustomed to. Their video games had a look and style all of their own that when combined with their cutting edge dance music collaborations and savvy marketing created not only a loyal following among gamers but also influenced future generations of game makers. In this episode we focus on their 16-bit era and the games which dominated not only our gaming memories but also the charts and award ceremonies of the time. We couldn't let such legendary game makers go by without marking the occasion as best we could. So, the Drisk has been at it again created another huge 222 page companion book which goes into even deeper detail about the games, stories and images around the Bitmap Brothers' canon. You can download the book for free from castaway.media/retroasylum

This episode of Bytesize has a real pick and mix flavour about it. In summary just think of a mash-up of Dizzy driving a Ferrari down the freeway being chased by zombie dogs full to the brim with t-Virus. In more detail this means we have Paul Davies talking on the Oliver Twins' Kickstarter book launch, the Drisk gets into his favourite game of all time Out Run and James Kent talks spooky goings on in his gaming past. Sound good? Of course it does. So sit down and get comfy as we blast this pod squarely in your face.
