Hotz described his product as 'fancy cruise control'. He actually doesn't play it up, and there are any number of fly-by-night autonomous driving startups working on rudimentary autonomous driving systems on next to no budget, but of course it's Hotz getting all the attention.
I'm seeing a lot of internet commenters reacting emotionally to Comma.ai, but the only thing they're getting upset about is their own inflated expectations. The actual product is too niche, too esoteric to warrant a strong reaction. It's a toy for nerds to tinker with, nothing more.
