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.

        They don’t actually care about the unborn either. They just want women to suffer, that’s always been the only goal.

      Yeah the draconian punishment and outcry when someone dares to overtake a school bus is absolutely laughable.

      Give that child chance to be shot the next day in school! Or starve to death, because they can’t afford school lunches.

      If we did the Carolina Lean is a bigger threat than Elon, but somehow that’s legal in most states.

    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.

      I still don’t get how anyone thought this notion was ever considered a good strategy for anything… it clearly shows these people have no skin in the game because there is no way they would break their own things

        This is exactly what it is. Move fast, and break other people’s things. Then never fucking take responsibility

        I’m developing a game engine, that is currently unpopular, instead of trying to make the old API work with the new rendering system, I just decided to completely redo a lot of stuff. It was mandatory for the GUI subsystem as previously it was a spaghetti code of mess, now it’s a pretty well usable thing. It was less mandatory with the sprite and tile rendering, but I needed to adjust stuff to OpenGL, as previously it used the CPU.

      A German party campaigned under the slogan “Digital first. Bedenken second” (Sic, i.e. mostly english). Bedenken means concerns.

      They were punished pretty hard last election.

    Well DUH! It’s trained off of the asshats who drive them, and most of them blow right past flashing red school buses and stop signs.

    ok maybe this is easier to address: is there any safety test that a self driving Tesla doesn’t fail?

        I heard it in health class a bajillion times, so as a reminder, abstinence is the only effective birth cont- oh wait, no, no, Teslas are very effective at preventing pregnancy and STIs.

    How the fuck, will this get the go ahead? In the US you can sue anyone for anything, how long before a class action gets filed against Tesla and their death traps?

      Oh don’t worry, the grifters will all have cashed out and be floating away on golden parachutes long after the decades of litigation is over.

    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.

      You can literally wear a mask and just put tape over a couple cameras while it’s stopped at a light and the whole thing will just freak out. Spray paint is probably even faster.
