“Some of you may die, but it’s a risk I’m willing to take.” - Lord Farquaad and Musk

I'm not especially sympathetic to the Tesla drivers this might kill.
I'm worried about everyone else.
I consider the suicide attempts a feature. I'll test for you, Tesla.
It shouldn't have even been released for normal people to use it in daily life, in real roads full of other cars. This poses a big life risk if you ask me, I hope countries start banning this feature soon otherwise many more other deaths will happen, and Elon somehow will get away with them. What's so hard about driving a real car manually? Did you all become fatass lazy people that don't even have the willpower to drive a car? Ridiculous. ML is experimental and for a machine, it's amazing, but it isn't as good as a human YET, thus causing life threatening accidents. FSD literally is still in beta, and people are driving full speed in roads with this beta software.
It can't be used in the EU. It would need to pass a review, Elon have claimed they are close to getting it through but Elon says a lot of things.
Self-driving cars are actually only legal in a few countries. And those countries have tests.
It's only the United States that just lets anyone do what everyone earth it is that they want, even if it's insanely dangerous.
Everywhere else any car company that's espousing self-driving tech would actually have to prove that it is safe, and only a few companies have managed to do this and even then the cars are limited to predefined areas where they are sure they're not going to come across difficult situations.
In its current state it has basically no chance IMO.
If they'd concentrated in making AP/Highway driving smarter first they might have got that through.. there are already rules for that.. but cities? I'd love to see the autonomous car that could drive through London or Manchester.
Lol who would trust their life to Elon Musk? 🤣
Well, this article is written by FredTesla who use to mod the TeslaMotors subreddit. Not only did he drink the koolaid, he brewed the damn stuff.
This is like that show "Upload"; the guy literally gets killed by a car
That was a really good show.
You should finish watching that first episode before making such bold statements.
Frankly, it speaks incredibly poorly to the NHTSA that this kind of behavior is allowed. "Beta testing" a machine learning driving assistance feature on active highways at 70+ miles an hour is a recipe for disaster. Calling it Full-Self Driving while also not having guardrails on its behavior is false advertising as well as just plain dangerous.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
