This is wrong and I was surprised to hear them say it was enough in the video.
We don't have car horns and sirens for your eyes. You will often hear something long before you see it. This is important for emergency vehicles. Once you hear it, a good driver will immediately slow down and pull to the side, or delay movement to give space for the vehicle.
Does this mean self driving vehicles can't detect emergency vehicles until they appear on camera? That's not encouraging.
- gizmo 4y agoDeaf people (or those who blast music) can drive. People who are blind in one eye can drive.
- mrguyorama 4y agoThat might have something to do with the general intelligence prediction supercomputer sitting between the ears. If Tesla is saying they won't have real (not just an 80 percent solution that they then lie and say is complete) self driving until they develop an AGI, I agree

Robotically performing an action in response to single/few stimuli with little consideration for the rest of the setting and whether other responses could yield more optimal results precludes one from ever being a "good" driver IMO. "See lights, pull over" is not going to cut it. See any low effort "idiot drivers and emergency vehicles" type youtube compilation for examples of why these sorts of approaches fall short.
