The company’s Autopilot system is in active use, and in fact just got an update this past weekend that should vastly improve its performance and decrease the possibility that the car doesn’t brake when it should.
I am not gonna lie - that does not give me a lot of confidence in this system. "Oh, and by the way, it sometimes doesn't brake when it should." That quickly equals injury or even death with a car. You do not want to move fast and break things with your car.

- mikeash 10y agoHow many crashes can be summed up as "the driver didn't break when they should"? The system doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to be better than the human. And actually, it doesn't even have to be better than the human: only the combination of the system and the human needs to be better than just the human alone.
