Your next self-driving car might think like a wise ancient philosopher.
Deep Dive
arXivLabs is a framework that allows collaborators to develop and share new arXiv features directly on the arXiv website. Both individuals and organizations that work with arXivLabs have embraced and accepted arXiv's values of openness, community, excellence, and user data privacy — and arXiv is committed to those values, working only with partners who adhere to them. If you have an idea for a project that will add value for arXiv's community, you can learn more about arXivLabs.
Key Points
- Self-driving cars may soon use ancient Chinese philosophy to make safer, smoother decisions.
- The system combines AI that looks up information with principles like harmony and balance.
- Early tests show fewer collisions, but real-world use is still years away.
Why It Matters
Could lead to self-driving cars that are safer and more pleasant, reducing accidents and stress.
