Hackers Use Little Stickers to Trick Tesla Autopilot into the Wrong Lane
- paradygm 8y ago> ...is not a realistic concern given that a driver can easily override Autopilot at any time by using the steering wheel or brakes and should always be prepared to do so This seems too dismissive on Tesla's part. If I am looking to add this option, and I am expected to be just as vigilant with Autopilot engaged as with it not engaged, why bother?
- rcMgD2BwE72F 8y agoHave you tried Autopilot yet? If you use it long enough, you'll probably have to take over sometimes because AP is not perfect. It's annoying when it happens and can be dangerous but despite that, Autopilot still makes driving less tiring. It's good enough that you're happy to drive a little slower, because you know you will feel well rested when you arrive at destination. All in all, it really makes driving safer over time.
- simonblack 8y agoThe word 'hackers' implies evil-doing. I'd be more inclined to use something like 'stress-testers' that signifies somebody finding the limits of the car's safety abilities. If three small markers are sufficient to interfere with a car's autopilot, that's one car I will never get into.
