Those who are wise among you, understand why Most High says you shall not make any graven image and understand that nothing good can come out of evil/disobedience to Yah because it's the fruits of Lucifer

The future is Data Science and Artificial Intelligence... You cannot fight what has come to stay. We're lucky to be at the center of a new tech revolution.
Question is: what are you doing with your time? When that future arrives - say 5yrs, 8yrs, 10 or 15yr, would you be among those who would have enough knowledge and skills to change the world.

Now is the time to forget about greedy politicians. Quite complaining. Get busy and pay your dues. Then, only then would you be able to call shots when tomorrow comes.

Do you that most of our university lecturers cannot even change their flat tyres
And the worst is that you may find some lecturers in mechanical engineering like that And those lecturers are the most sadist shocked grin cheesy

If we don't stop all these bookish thing we go end up like Greece as compared to USA: Greece believe in talking and talking (Philosophy etc) but USA believe in doing something with the theories and here they are today angry

Sooner or later, the robot will win.
There's something uncanny about a robot that is programmed and tuned to win in One particular race track.
The human has other things to think of. The robot doesn't.
That was how Automatic transmissions started, as "slush boxes" with transmission times measured in seconds. Now, they do it in milliseconds. Faster than Any human can manual shift.
Speed sensors, angle sensors, infrared road temp sensors, wind speed and direction sensors... Not to mention that every curve, corner, straight and track condition will be pre-programmed into the robot.
With identical Bikes, the human stand no chance. It's only a matter of time.

We hear a lot about self-driving cars, but not so much about self-driving motorcycles. Perhaps the most advanced autonomous motorcycle so far is the experimental Yamaha Motobot. Currently, on its second version, Yamaha just showed off what this robot is capable of at the Tokyo Motor Show. Rather than focusing on driving safely and obeying traffic laws on the street like most self-driving car experiments, Motobot was purposely built for going fast on the track. 

The Motobot project started back in 2015 and achieved its goal to make Motobot Version 1 ride on a straight-line to a top speed of 100 kilometers per hour (62 miles per hour),running a slalom course and also cornering

Motobot Version 2(2017)also reached its goal of deducing the requirements for riding that exceeds human capabilities and also to lap a racetrack at 200 km/h or higher.

And the next objective was to challenge seven-time MotoGP champion Valentino Rossi to a race.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mafJmMGGOXk?t=143

The two Yamaha teammates did a lap around the two-mile-long West course at Thunderhill Raceway in Northern California.

It turns out Rossi is significantly faster around a track than a robot. The man beat the machine by a little more than 30 seconds with a time of 85.74 seconds easily beating Motobot’s time of 117.504 seconds.

While Motobot did get beaten pretty badly, it’s still pretty impressive that a motorcycle with no human rider can make it around a two-mile course at all.

Rossi won this time, but he should expect a rematch in the near future.
