@stux I’m fascinated by emergent phenomena in multi-agent systems (#AI, Human, combo). This looks like a great example.
- Is this a type of flocking behavior?
- Did some other #autonomous vehicle/company deceive these autos to come to this place?
- Is the result of a routing #algorithm succumbing to natural traffic bottlenecks?

On the practical side, how does anyone undo this situation?

@meltedcheese @stux There should be an automated call to a remote operator if they're stuck in a situation they can't handle.

@mogul @stux How does an autonomous car tell if it is in a situation it can’t handle?

I dunno, I'm not paid VC money to figure it out for them. But as a freebie...

Stuck in the middle of an intersection not moving for 10 minutes? "Report problem" button accessible to the passengers? Data analytics that alerts when one of the cars can't move because another of their cars is in the way, and looks for cycles?
