This is why I don't understand people who are ready to rush headlong into autonomous vehicle world. I especially don't get it with tech people, and more especially with software people.
We know what can go wrong. I've heard the arguments that "yeah, but software is less fallible than humans". Maybe, but what happens when a situation arises that requires human judgment beyond what mere sensors can provide?
And, what happens when an OTA update regresses some safety feature or conflicts with another?
- exclusiv 11y agoI tried the auto driving in a Model S and I hovered the brake closely for a long time with some anxiety about trusting it for the reason you noticed. It was quite amazing and for long trips on the highway and in traffic it really is remarkable. That's why people are getting excited I think. You still have to pay attention of course and take over fully at times because the sensors don't have what they need.
