Boffins bust AI with corrupted training data

Toc-H-Lamp

Back in the eighties AI was dubbed fuzzy logic. It was incorporated into various systems but the main difference was that is was quite limited in it's scope. A story used to abound that the military had trained a system to recognise hostile shapes such as tanks and troop carriers and was showing it off to the bigwigs. A battlefield was littered with buses cars tanks and troop carriers. The system did nothing until it rained when it blew everything away. They then noticed all the hostile pictures were taken in the rain. No idea if it was true but it brightened may a dull training course. Fuzzy logic for fuzzy thinkers maybe.
