Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk on Wednesday set new targets for artificial intelligence products including self-driving software and using humanoid robots in factories, though he acknowledged he's been optimistic before.
Did I say autopilot was safe? I said the Tesla Model Y was the safest car - you know, by test crash ratings.
I hate Musk as much as the next guy, but people can’t separate that ass from the actual good things produced by some of the companies he owns.
FSD is fine if you still drive the car. People don’t do that, so it’s actually dangerous in the real world. It should be marketed VERY differently.
If you get into an accident, being in a Tesla is actually safer than a lot of cars because the car itself is very safe.
Of course everyone hates Musk, so anything related to Musk has to be down voted. Any opinion other than Space-X and Tesla is as shit as Twitter and Musk himself is wrong.
The thing is it’s been “real close” for ~10 years. But they’ve solved the “easy” problems. In development you spend 90% of your time on 10% of the problems. This is why fusion power has been “real close” for 30 years as well. Those remaining problems are the hard ones.
I genuinely don’t know why Tesla doesn’t just focus on the safety aspects of their tech rather than the “self-driving” BS. Having a car that will stop for me if the car in front slams their brakes on unexpectedly is a great thing. That’s a lot of accidents avoided.
Then take a train or a bus. I doubt we’ll ever get to the point where self-driving cars are reliable enough that you could legally sleep while it is in operation. Especially not in our lifetime.
The Tesla Model Y is literally the safest passenger vehicle available right now.
Self driving vehicles are actually close, but as you said, the edge cases are a bitch.

Yeah - but what Musk says has no bearing on reality. It could still happen even if he’s far too optimistic about it.

Having a self driving car will be amazing.
So will flying cars. I hear we’ll have them in 10-15 years.
I just wanna be able to sleep on my way to the destination.

This is what I love about carpools, actually.
Trains and busses are inconvenient and inferior to cars.
Then you’ll never be able to sleep while commuting. 🤷♂️
Self driving cars are the answer
Take the train
Train doesn’t go where I need it to go
Decent public transportation will be even better.
