That's what I was thinking, your car starts doing something fucking stupid and you just let it?

It's hard to tell who's worse at driving. Tesla owners or their auto pilot

Who needs a driver? This car has AUTOPILOT.

But seriously, Tesla "autopilot" is nothing more than a cruise control you have to keep an eye on. Which means, it's NOT "autopilot." This technology is not ready for the real world. Sooner or later, it's going to cause a major, horrible accident, involving dozens or people. Musk has enough connections to avoid any real-world consequences but maybe enough people will get over their child-like worship of billionaires and stop treating him like he's the next Bill Gates.

Even if asleep, how do you sleep through that? Would be super bumpy.

And it has a great TRACK record in training mode.

Further proof that America needs to invest in electrified rail

self-driving vehicles have existed for decades, and they are very safe.

They are trains 🚊 / trams 🚋

I don't believe that. Based on how far AI has come in the recent years I think it's only a matter of time before someone (other than Tesla) manages to do it well.

The biggest problem with the Tesla Auto pilot is Elon. Just the fact that he insists on using only camera-based vision because "people only need their eyes to drive" should tell you all you need to know about their AI.

But only the very last scene

Yeah, like a digital "ideal line" that the cars can follow.

Maybe even a physical guiding line.

We could even connect all the cars via WLAN (WiFi) to exchange info when they are braking and accelerating. That would increase efficiency.

Maybe we could even connect them physically to have a stronger engine pulling more cars more efficiently.

If we already have an ideal guiding line, we might actually save some asphalt and make the roads more optimised. Use different materials so the tyre particles don't pollute as much.

Ah, let's just build a train.

Or just fund public transportation instead :)

I don't want to waste any more tax money trying to make one of the least effecient modes of transport more autonomous. Just build an electricrfied tram if thats what you want.

Eventually a great idea, but that's not rolling out particularly soon.

Human drivers have done this before. Navigation system says "turn right", they don't realise it means after the level crossing.

I think it’s every responsible driver’s duty not to buy a Tesla!

A perfect example of why calling it autopilot in the first place was a bad idea. The name misrepresents the feature, which is really just lane keeping and a few other minor things.
