I have no confidence that Tesla will fix this before the planned Robo-Taxi rollout in Austin in 2 weeks.
After all, they haven’t fixed it in the last 9 years that self-driving Teslas have been on the road.
Texas releasing these things in public is horrifying. Tesla is last in this field, and refuses to add LIDAR, which is obviously what is needed.
Lidar is one of the things it needs, but even when they properly see what’s ahead they don’t interpret it correctly and don’t take the correct actions, it’s bigger than just lidar, which is honestly terrifying
My $60 robot vacuum has lidar…
Maybe you can get a business going mounting roombas on Tesla bumpers?
Call it clean energy
I award you the dubious honor of “Best Pun on the Thread”
It hits the road in America. And considering the state of that country, this isn’t even near the list of problems atm.
Maybe y’all can’t shoot the cars when they go Christine on you.
It’s because it was so good that it knew it was a dummy and not a child /s
Did they try it with a lighter colored child?
Listen. If we cared about safety we do something about it. This is where we are.
only a tesla could collide with the very road it’s driving on
I get that’s not what “hit the road” means but I stand by what I said
Kids just gotta run faster is all.
So it’s working as intended, if everyone is scared of walking or driving with those killer-taxis roaming around, some people will be tricked into hiding inside the killer-robo-taxis.
The only way that you can stop a crazy-killer-robo-taxi is to have your own craxy-killer-robo-taxi.
Craxy-killer-robo-taxi don’t kill people… Oh wait, they do.
Not unexpected.
Waymo, which I think grew out of the original Google self-driving car project, has been operating robo-taxis for several years. They’re available in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and a few more cities. I wonder how they did on the schoolbus test. Not able to find anything online about that. They use different car manufacturers from China, UK, Germany, and it looks like one of them (Jaguar Land Rover) is owned or partly owned by Ford. So data about the individual cars is kind of hard to track down.
Atlanta is the latest launch city, they are all white Jaguar i-Paces.
Waymo had non-standard stop-signs figured out six years ago XD Feels essential to running a half-way responsible autonomous car service?
Kid should have moved for the musk mutilater 2.00.
Worth saving this article for future class actions. Go go go!
It’s a Tesla, so probably mistook the dummy for an immigrant. In other words: Within specs
I wonder if the FSD disengaged mere seconds before impact so Tesla can blame anything but their shitty software.
This is a fitting allegory for AI.
Yeah. Yeah, can’t use it in any failure-sensitive field right now.
No more than you could use a human who periodically hallucinates (and that means you are NOT good to drive, give me them keys XD )
