Challenge accepted: High-speed AI drone overtakes world-champion drone racers
Remember when IBM's Deep Blue won against Gary Kasparov at chess in 1996, or Google's AlphaGo crushed the top champion Lee Sedol at Go, a much more complex game, in 2016? These competitions where machines prevailed over human champions are key milestones in the history of artificial intelligence. Now a group of researchers from the University of Zurich and Intel has set a new milestone with the first autonomous system capable of beating human champions at a physical sport: drone racing.
