>While their technical reasoning is fine... this statement shows a complete failure of reasoning about human beings and UX. In essence they are asking people to stay alert without being active, this is actually really fucking hard to do as a human being.
This is the common case in pretty much all automated manufacturing plants where you have to hit the big red STOP button when stuff goes wrong. I don't quite see how its a failure when it has been working for them. In any case, do you have an alternative proposal that works?
- EpicEng 9y agoI think the alternate proposal is that semi-automated driving is a bad idea and shouldn't be a thing. It's not on an HN poster to solve the problem for Tesla.
- ksk 9y agoIts also bizarre to identify problems, and assume the mantle of a teacher and tell someone they're doing it wrong without having any first hand expertise.
- EpicEng 9y agoIt's not bizarre at all when you have decades of research on your side. We know that taking the human out of the equation reduces their response times and awareness dramatically. This isn't a new area of research.
