I'm not sure why you're finding this particularly doubt-wowrthy. Tesla autopilot doesn't have the most amazingly clean history - particularly when it comes to this exact sort of situation. It does not handle stationary obstacles in a lane very well. It's even been a somewhat popular topic recently.
- parineum 5y ago> It's even been a somewhat popular topic recently. Which is a great reason to start judging the claim a bit more skeptically than normal. Once the press latch on to a theme, they can be incredibly quick to make it an epidemic at the expense of due diligence.
- foerbert 5y agoI suppose so, but this sort of problem has been pretty well documented as actually being a thing. I was also referring more to techie-type arenas, I don't know that I've seen much about this so specifically recently in major media outlets. Even if it was... it seems pretty clear this is the exact type of problem you'd expect to see a Tesla have. If you're at the point where you're doubting it simply because other people might know it's a problem... eventually you kind of lose the ability to function here, as the mere knowledge of doubt makes you doubt the doubt, and when does that end? Hell, we've all heard lots recently about the media being so bad...
- comradesmith 5y agoOh I’m sure that autopilot is going to make this kind of mistake or may be at fault here. But I am equally sure that someone will one day try to lie about having autopilot on to get out of a traffic accident.
