The Worst Racing Series of All Time

[@DailyFuelUp]

So are you for or against AI in motorsport? 👇

[@QSSEditorium9981]

I always say this. It can make its way into the sport, but it must not make its way into the seats.

[@ISuckAtThisToBeHonest]

Against because they unemploy the current f1 drivers

[@ウィリアムズfw14b]

???

[@caledonianrailway1233]

They will only be useful in banger racing

[@ijsbeermeneer9952]

Theres a 3rd option. Since cars arent alone on the track, a difficult battle may ensue where the AI is competing against other AI. granted, some AI will probably be optimised to take the perfect corners in perfect conditions. But certain amplifiers like in formula E could certainly be interrsting. I do approve of your point that were connected to the drivers in a para social way tho

[@Lumakid100]

I don’t think this will be a threat to normal motorsport as you fear it might. What I think is more likely is that when these things inevitably improve, it’ll draw its own crowd from multiple sources, but in particular, people who already like robotics like me. Yes, it’ll take some fans from normal motorsport as well, but the difference will likely be negligible as building robots is a completely different set of challenges than just building fast cars for people to drive.

[@epicfiend1999]

The entire appeal of racing is that I'm watching a human being go as fast as possible in the given machine. Replacing drivers with AI eliminates the whole point of racing for me, I would not bother watching ever again.

[@RomanBuyevich]

Imagine getting excited when a robot wins a world championship

[@Luzi-chan]

i think at that point its not about the drivers anymore, but whi had the better car, which already can decide a world title or not. looking at ferraris horrible cars the last few seasons

[@gehtdianschasau8372]

maybe they create AI to get excited instead of humans, write the social media posts, like the content and stuff

[@Hakeraiden]

it's more about which engineering team wins championship

[@JustKandyMan1]

I appreciate the techanical side of the series but as a motorsport fan it just doesn't excite me, personally i would rather see it be a VR controlled car siomilar to drone racing. Or hell make it a real life F1 multiplayer lobby and watch the chaos unfold.

[@jamsociety-jm26]

no probably, he definitely is

Tbh it probably isnt

[@emocelot]

This is not AI. This is just basic robotics, and demonstrates why sizable, or industrial robots aren't used in public spaces. It's very easy for sensors, or the code operating off those sensors, to fail. Using real AI in a physical form like this would be difficult, as machine learning is done by doing hundreds to thousands of iterations to make mistakes and learn, and simulators aren't the same as the real thing. It's not really possible to let an AI drive a track thousands of times in all kinds of different conditions.

[@michaelharder3055]

Clearly you don't even know what AI is, so why not shut the fck up instead of muddling the conversation. What a fcking TWAT.

[@michaelharder3055]

So they are remote controlled?

[@michaelharder3055]

So they've programmed the cars to drive 407 meters and then turn? If so you are saying that they didn't know how long the straight is and made the car turn sooner. Or does the car makes the decision based on the programming?

[@emocelot]

@@michaelharder3055 you obviously don't know the difference between an ai, and a computer using sensors to run code. How long have we had auto pilot in planes. That was decades before the conception of AI. And to answer your question. The code makes no decisions. It will simply fulfill a predetermined if statement based on it's sensors readings.

[@mustard96]

@@emocelot The AI comes from the interpretation of the images and Lidar data. The auto pilot in planes doesn't have to deal with cameras, that's why it doesn't need AI. So, you are not correct.

[@kwgm8578]

In my humble guess, these cars will be beating F1 times within a year or two. Same tracks, same cars, modifications of sensors, no limits on code changes, use of code writing code -- they'll be out driving Max or the next "great thing," very soon.

[@Adrian_Nel]

No drivers no computers? They are rolling computers

[@michaelharder3055]

To be fair, if you took the politics and people out of F1 there wouldn't be much of a race.

[@crystaldragongaming]

i was there attending the race! i remember witnessing one of the cars, if i remember it was the yellow overtaking another car in the exact same hairpin where Max Verstappen overtook Lewis Hamilton. This part was never shown from the professional ends but i remember myself and the crowd exclaiming to that one of the very few actions that occurred. Another thing to comment on was that Daniil Kvyat himself was there and drove a car, initiating the test of Human vs AI. when you come to think to it on how these cars can potentially react to threats around them, it was quite of an exciting think to see. for a whole lap, Daniil and one of the cars actually raced each other for a lap, or just a little less of one, haha.

[@ISuckAtThisToBeHonest]

great video keep it up bro

[@DrSpoculus]

It all depends on the progrmmer and how confident they are. Some will program to be slower and safer. Some will program to be faster and more dangerous. Also, they will add things like push to pass that the programmers can engage during the race. Think of how the mobile f1 games work where you can turn your speed up and down. This effects tire wear and grip. The celebrity of the driver will just move to the programmer and team. They will be able to do more exciting and risky maneuvers without human drivers.

[@Maxiwiwi1]

Motersport is about how well the driver drives and how good the car is.Also it’s fun to watch them make mistakes

[@fuhrerlandon]

I am so fucking relieved. When I heard the CEO stepped down, I literally thought it was going to be over.

[@michaelharder3055]

"Races with AI will be super boring". F1 2023 ? ? ? WHAT THE FCK ARE YOU ON ABOUT?

[@seandegroote1915]

I love your vids, but I think this opinion is a little short sighted. So many changes that happened in F1 were debated with the same type of thinking - Engine mapping mode, throttle maps, etc. These all take skill and work away from the driver and put it into software. AI is just the next evolution. Pre-programming outcomes would not be the goal here - for AI to work as AI, the programming tells it how to assess a risk and gives it protocols to follow when deciding how to act on that risk. Yes, it sucks now, but I think this is an interesting space to watch, and could get exciting in the future - but will not replace F1, you're right about that.

[@divyanshshrivastava7765]

I already detached myself from the sports when the v12 and v10 got ditched as that’s what I grew up seeing as a kid in F1 this will simply bring me to hate F1 completely forever

[@Fake67257]

I think racing with drivers or robots can be exists beside each other. The first one is a sport and shows what humans are capable of. The second one is a nice experiment what ai and software is capable of. It does not have to be against each other i think.

[@Lumakid100]

Yes. This. Exactly this. Robotics is a completely separate field that happens to share real estate with existing properties. Self-driving cars have been an experimental thing since 2004. The only reason we know more about them now is because more people in robotics are trying their hand at it in all possible areas and because of attempts like this and the ill-fated Roborace.

[@ijsbeermeneer9952]

Bruh i just saw a video covering the race... what the f was that. I get that in 2 months u cant train a bot to drive that well. But i gotta love the 3 car pileup cause they couldnt overtake a parked car lmao

[@IMX383]

Same how do you fuckin drive worse than danica patrick

[@matthew-jy5jp]

Hey dummy. You do know that people have names right? Stop pretending like you're a rapper. You people sound retarded bruh 😂

[@jonathansnow8222]

This shouldn't be a racing league. There's a far better use for this that I think would be a license to print money. First you build cars that can be fitted with interchangeable bodies to look like former F1 cars from different generations, put replica helmets of drivers from the era where they would have been, and re run historic races exactly how they happened. Tell me you wouldn't pay good money to watch historic races with senna, prost, mansel, schumacher, etc in live action, on the same tracks, with the same sounds.

[@mystic_elephant0]

Is these AI races on sky sports F1 because i need to watch this. it would be so funny!

[@Racernumbersix]

The point of this is to accelerate the progression of ai learning, some military contractor or tech bro has funded this to gain data that will be used for other purposes. It is not racing, it is not relevant, it is not enjoyable. Yet enough clueless idiots will post about it and dribble mindlessly that it continues to get coverage. Fuch it.

[@dgstellario4433]

it is exceptionally enjoyable - if you are the person who builds and codes the cars

[@Unclekase]

For now, it's really just an experiment, one that could lead to innovation, obviously, but no one is going to seriously watch it for the racing. I mean, when an F1 driver crashes, I'm worried, if this thing crashes on the track, whatever, it'll need some new chips.

[@krikkrakvollenbak5892]

i think this could be used for the constructor championship. use 1 AI driver for all cars to make it purely about how the car is built, not how its driven. and then still have the drivers championship to judge how good the drivers are.

[@nope.c]

I fail to see the point of this.. other than just as an exhibition.

[@polokucoch8112]

Yeah, but can these cars drive like Lattifi?? That's skill

[@channel-nb7vx]

Honestly, I think ai racing would be good if the technology was more advanced and teams were able to modify the cars. That’d be like a revival of can-am; manufacturers or individuals can make absolute beasts of racing now without the risk or limit of the driver.

[@vinceely2906]

10 PRINT “car go fastest” 20 GOTO 10 Run

[@pokeopen7715]

This is getting too far

[@exunderscorejai]

The other appealing thing about driverless racing is that manufacturers could (if allowed) potentially have a lot more freedom in the design of the car, since they don't need to worry quite so much about the safety element and channeling air around the driver. Plus I don't see this being a threat to F1 at all. If you watch motorsports for the personalities, keep watching F1. If you're more into the tech, you could watch this. You could *even* watch both.

[@dgstellario4433]

To be fair F1 has long ago transformed into an engineering contest where the performers (aka racing drivers) have almost equally and extremely high talented and the real difference is done by engineering solutions; if public wants “a real driving championship” someone will revive some “true racing” concept and will serve the demand for “good old racing” Meanwhile, the robotic racing opens a new side of fans interaction - as these cars need some programming code to run on, it’s possible to give fans a chance to write their own code for racing car and then see how this works out on a real car

[@mk_annan22]

@DailyFuelUp the racing anime, "High Speed Etoile" (2024) currently airing, shows human drivers with AI support competing against AI drivers in advanced Formula E cars, exactly like the A2RL series. I would like to hear your review about it.

[@therealf.b.i9468]

F1 drivers fear it because they're going to crash into them

[@JacksonOster-te3xq]

When DailyFuelUp posts you know its gonna be a good day!

[@Omeiden]

You dont need these childlike thumbnails. This is F1 not Transformers

[@1991SuperMAX]

Idc tbh. Maybe it will be less boring with a single man / team dominating. I think F1 should give anyone the same car, woth limited modifications. So the driver skill is more important than ever.

[@alaeriia01]

That's just Indycar.

[@ZombifiedPiglinBrute]

[@testwill23.]

I think the technology is going to be used more for road cars than f1

[@jasonbrowny23]

[@JWW-z7m]

We aren’t even close enough to this being a problem or with in a second of a f1 driver even stroll 1 thing all f1 drivers have in common is to just react and react right in less then a split second robots require calculations to make these micro and big corrections ina hot lap bc every hot lap is going to have tones of micro corrections and a lot of races threw out a carrer your gonna have to save the car from crashing and i don’t thinks. robot could do those better then a. professional driver pro drivers even lance stroll can just save the car and naturally know exactly what to do to save it or fix your entrance or exit it’s just natural you don’t think you just do all professional drivers are naturally talaneted enough to be able to know their car better then their body

[@vandarkholme4745]

I've worked on AI (not anymore, because it's the most boring kind of research ever, twisting knobs on a black box until it magically work). Driving in real world isn't hard be cause of it's impossible to avoid obstacles, but because the real world is filled with stuff: trees, people, dogs, ... I doubt driving in such a sanitized environment can help self driving cars at all. Let's face it, it got big money because it's a buzzword slapped onto a luxury sport. I'd be shocked if investors aren't flocking toward the league. Also, I've seen robots move faster in my middle school science bowl decades ago. Come on, if you can't make the AI work at least hard code something exciting.

[@Mjolnir79]

The human element and season drama AND mistakes makes F1 awesome.

[@didgereemedia194]

I would LOVE an AI to recreate the 2014 Bathurst 1000

Maybe just maybe they saw how bad Logan Sargeant was in this season and say lets make AI. While you could argue that he is worse than Nicolas Latifi before I proceed yes this is what I am saying is true because I did saw many people saying he is worse than Nicolas Latifi for some reason at least Logan Sargeant is much much better than Mazepin.
