 Some of the biggest forms of AI being introduced today are self driving cars. The most well known company that has already come out with a self driving car is Tesla as some of their newest models include an auto pilot mode where the car knows where you are on the road and maintains a constant speed. According to Dr. Kelsey AI in the past has had complexity due to limitations on computer chips, software, or programs that run the computers. (Kelsey. T 2019) When these advances get polished and get brought to todays world many of the things deemed impossible will be ran by computers. With being said algorithm needs to be improved which is the process of teaching a computer on how to perform tasks. With this technology we can teach machines to imitate human brains except with the capability of containing way more data and analytics humans can retain or compute. 

The complexity today in self driving cars is the safety concern. It takes a lot of designing and moving pictures to teach a self driving car to analyze and make the right decisions. Google has the best way of fixing this problem considering google maps has close to perfect representation of the streets and any location. With this we can program the car to have the knowledge google maps does to teach the car where to go. For example the Google/ Waymo car was created with a system that had a machine learning process to analyze decisions the car could make. With systems and machines already on the brink of being used there are still many complexities that need to be perfected before they can be deemed 100 percent safe. However, with products like these already out it is evident we are not far off.
