Vaguely Accurate - Science

This week will meet Pieter Luitjens, an engineer currently working on the development of self-driving cars for Mercedes. Pieter previously worked as an industrial programing engineer within the mining sector before noticing the forthcoming employment slump. Pieter moved to complete a master's degree at the University of Toronto, Canada – A world leader in computer science. Throughout my discussion with Pieter we talk about the advancement of self-driving cars, learn that advanced cruise control could be around the corner, understand the difference between artificial intelligence and a pattern-recognition algorithm and discuss the field of computer/data science. Below are links to the sites Pieter and I spoke about during the show: http://cs231n.stanford.edu/ http://www.bbc.com/news/business-38530245 https://www.learnpython.org/ I hope you enjoy this episode and feel free to reach out to us on twitter or facebook to give us your thoughts & feedback. We also have a new website out and it would be great if y
