I think it's less that they worried about whether or not people wanted to know how it works, and more that they needed to know. New fancy technology is generally poo-pooed by people. Why do we need fancy auto anything when a stick and clutch worked for years? Well, here's some fun graphics to explain!
- userbinator 3y agoThese days it seems people are more content with "it's magic" as the explanation. Then again, how could you explain complex automotive systems like Tesla's self-driving in a way that's as lucid as this? I think at some point, companies just gave up trying to educate and went for "trust us, it works" instead.
- mitthrowaway2 3y agoPerhaps the non-explainability of Tesla's "full self-driving" technology bears some relationship to its track record of not delivering on its marketing claims.
