This is a non-story. It's pretty clear to me the car should have stopped (and I question the original tweeter's road judgement for suggesting otherwise) but plenty of bad drivers do the same thing in the city.
- LeoPanthera 3y ago"FSD doesn't have to be perfect, it only has to be better than humans." That's what I hear from the pro-AI guys all the time. So you can have that, or "well humans do that too", but not both.
- nluken 3y agoThat isn't what I'm saying. I agree that this behavior needs to be fixed. I'm saying that "Tesla's self-driving algorithm makes an error at a single intersection in SF" doesn't meet my threshold for news any more than a human doing that would. A story called "Teslas systemically drive unsafely at intersections", with an investigation into this kind of behavior at mass scale? That's actual journalism, not just a glorified quote retweet.
- rurp 3y agoFSD already introduces new failure modes, if it's going to hardcode human mistakes as well what's even the point? This is also assuming that FSD runs through crosswalks at the same rate as human drivers, but it might be much more frequent. If Tesla actually backed up their safety claims with data we could check and verify, but they are famously reticent to provide evidence of how their cars perform that hasn't been cherry picked.
