Very cool! The LTC doing the presentation was at the academy when I was there. Didn't know him personally, used to pass him at Group HQ and see him in meetings.
 
The problem with this trial is that the simulated environment provided the AI algorithms with "perfect" data that's unobtainable in the real world. Certainly, it's a benchmark in the progress of AI but the real world is messy and unpredictable. Just ask the designers of self-driving cars. They work really well when roads are clear and well-marked, but they really struggle when the real world gets in the way (e.g. snow that obscures road markings).
