Someone with a better singing voice than me needs to remix this classic.
I see an opportunity to target Teslas exclusively
Dunno man, I don't want to risk the lives of those in normal cars. Just one bad day on an overworked guy at night and you'll have the same issue.
AP aside, worst car manufacturer.
Also, the owner is a Nazi.
This is from Mark Robers YouTube Channel.
Credit where credit is due.
Mark Robers is fucking awesome, btw. He does all sorts of fun STEM things and keeps it interesting for kids and adults.
I also like how this particular video pissed off Tesla AND Disney.
I guess credit is due, but with a basic understanding of the technology, I would be surprised if it did stop. Seems like a very set up and timed thing he's done just as a fuck you to Elon.
Which Elon deserves, he's a fucking flog. I just didn't think the video was that impressive.
Well the set up is "Some rich fucker was idiot enough to dictate his company should not install LIDAR, no matter how strictly superior it'd be to do so".
So I dunno. We could ask Melon Husk why he set that up, but I doubt he'll reply. All Mark Robers did is observe the effect of the setup of Edolf Muskler. You're right of course in so far that there's not much to the video then, and I faintly remember there was a case a lot of years ago where a Tesla drove into a sky-blue truck because coming up on a crest it expected to only see hill, which matched the color of said truck.
Okay
One of the tests from that video, the Tesla passed and I was honestly surprised it could. Can't remember if it was heavy fog or bright oncoming lights.
Either way, yeah, LIDAR is far more capable and beat the Tesla in every test. Incredibly foolish to go camera-only but hey, that's Elon.
It was the lights test.
In the fog test, it plowed through the mannequin kid (and in real life, they've been observed plowing through deer).

People are arguing about autopilot being disabled during the drive, but even if it was, the emergency braking system should tried to do something.
Autopilot literally switched ITSELF off less than half a second from the moment of impact. it didn't try to stop the car, it just shut itself off so it couldn't be blamed.
Imagine if someone whipped throwing knives at your back and then tried to argue "but your honor I was not holding any knives at the time of the stabbing"
Fuck Tesla, fuck Elon, fuck every simp who shits excuses out their mouths for him
(I mean, not YOU, you aren't doing any of those things; I'm just saying, those people. In general.)
It's like a pilot bailing out of a plane and then claiming he was not responsible for the crash because he was in Vegas at the time the plane crashed.

Mark did an interview with Philip Defranco and posted raw footage showing/explaining that Autopilot turned itself off instead of hitting the brakes.
They also did two takes, it did the same thing both times. The first time, they just used a poster instead of a full foam wall. They decided to add the foam for a better visual once they realized it would just happily plow through it.
Finally there's some argument of Autopilot vs FSD; but both rely on the same cameras and should have at least tried to brake. The LIDAR car braked and it was just using emergency braking, no self driving at all.
It shows they didn't even watch the video. The only reason Mark used autopilot was because without it the car failed the simplest test.
The test was with a kid being in the middle of the street and Tesla didn't even stop in time.

Why would it? It sees a road in front of itself, the whole car is built + programmed to go by what it sees, as an image.
The car is doing exactly what it is built to do. It just so happens that "safety of road traffic" is not among the things it is built for, and explicitly so.
I think it's a good example of how vastly over hyped a lot of AI stuff is though. Any person could tell that that was a wall from hundreds of feet away. You can even tell in the video and it would be more obvious in real life with actual depth perception.
The entire problem with AI are corner cases. This is just taking that corner case to an absurd level. But it's not much different than the real world case of a Tesla vehicle getting confused on a highway if a billboard ad has a stop sign on it.

I love that they had pre-cut the styrofoam wall in a cartoony hole shape because they knew it was going to happen.
From following video with raw footage they initially used a poster, but seeing that Tesla would just plow through it they built the styrofoam wall for a better effect.

Not defending Tesla or anything but let's not pretend like the majority of people on the road looking at their phone would not have done the exact same thing
Maybe they should be a responsible driver and look at the road instead or better yet take public transit.
Would be nice, but i live in reality unfortunately
Someone should make looking at your phone while driving illegal. Maybe even slap it with a catchy name like "distracted driving" and make the issue a whole big deal.
You're not wrong with the comparison, but the whole point of the computer having control over the vehicle is that this doesn't happen, despite the driver's abject negligence.

You know, with how distracted your average Tesla driver is, I'm pretty sure this would trick them even with them "driving" with AP on.

FSD was promised but never delivered because they need lidar for rain/snow/etc weather.
The FSD promise was mostly just market manipulation. Sure they might actually get it done at some point. But the time line they proposed was just a scam. And it worked seeing the market cap.
