[FRIAM] Another spin on AI

[Gillian Densmore]

Speaking of Ai. A youtube video I watched the other day says that a battle
bot named Honest Abe might be one of the first mostly autonomous  bots for
battle bots. It some house uses machine learning and machine vision to make
it's way around the pit.  It's surreal seeing this 200 pound machine be a
better driver than humans. Sounds like something you might keep an eye on.
Anyone know more on the story? the video only said the judges were debating
if it'd be safe to try it. Some other bot makers got a bot to self drive
and it made it to the semi finals before being yeeted out of the arena.
