As an observer of this development, this is not correct.I recollect press releases deliberately ignoring the big elephants in the room. As an outsider relying completely on press, I think they lied by omission.
When self driving was first demonstrated to work, constraints were never highlighted. For example I did not see any discussion on the topics like black ice, needing a sufficiently accurate area map, proper road marking etc. in advance were never in new. Humans might struggle but can still drive in those conditions.
On the issue of driver assistance, I believe more of might give drives a sense of false safety and hence cause more accidents.
- rohit2412 8y agoThis! So much this! I remember a interview by Elon musk at a conference called CODE where he espoused that driverless cars are solved because all you need to do is get a car to stay in Lane and brake safely at low speeds. And everybody bought it. Well, where is the cross country summon, coast to coast autonomous drive, driverless taxi networks. It astounds me that one can blatantly lie repeatedly and not be called out.
