My (not GP) issue with him comes from all his whining over the NHTSA stuff. You can't talk about how easy the problem is and how much better you are, and then fold when safety regulators show up. That to me says that he may be incredible at building things, but doesn't know how to take it the last mile. Sure, you can argue against the regulation, but I for one think that self driving cars should have strict safety regulation. And from what I read they weren't asking anything crazy of him that they wouldn't of anyone else.
- palmerit 9y agofold? he did the exact opposite of "fold" he released the hardware plans, specs, and software as opensource. You can go build it, today. And if you have a supported car (currently certain honda civics, and accura ILX's.. soon honda crv, toyota prius, and chevy bolt/volt) you can actually use it, today. There are videos on youtube of people doing exactly that. Changing your business model, is IMO.. the opposite of folding. it's adapting.
- MegaButts 9y agoHe threw a tantrum on twitter to save face. If you want to admire him for his hacking efforts that's one thing (and honestly I don't even agree with that for his work on self-driving cars), but he hasn't done much to build a business yet.
