This is a great introduction to all the technology that people have developed over the years (since the 1970's!) to make robots autonomous, that, unfortunately, have never quite worked. As I like to point out, if we knew how to make drones (or any kind of robot) really, actually autonomous you'd see them used first of all in Ukraine, and recently in Lebanon. You don't, all the drones used in warfare are remote-controlled. Autonomy doesn't work yet. Not well enough to deploy in a theater of war.
Btw, I did really enjoy the graphic sumarising Control Theory. I'd criticise the lack of Planning and Scheduling, i.e. the PDDL-based symbolic AI stuff which is the technology that works best and is used e.g. by NASA on Perseverance, but OK, there's basically three communities that attack the same problem from different angles: Model Predictive Control, Planning & Scheduling, and RL. Two out of three is not too bad (but I don't see how RL goes under CT; never mind).
Somehow this is only the first time I have seen this vector taken advantage of with my own eyes.
I remember thinking it was a stupid idea to embed third party hosted JS back when jquery and prototypejs were the duopoly of javascript. I'm surprised it took me this long to see it.

The fact that people just make this stuff and make it available to others is the most amazing thing about the internet (and the people on it).
Keeps asking me to sign in?
It uses polyfill.io which is no longer active and has been taken over by malicious actors.
That's where the sign in request is coming from

I’m not seeing this? Has it been fixed?
