Tesla, the company that just recalled 2 million self driving cars?
In fairness, the company best positioned to harness user input to an AI that avoids crashes would probably be Rockstar. OTOH, that AI would definitely not obey stop signs or pedestrians.
- hehhehaha 3y ago"recall"
- bheadmaster 3y agoTesla recalled two million vehicles after federal officials said it had not done enough to make sure that drivers remained attentive when using the system. Not because their self-driving system sucks, or whatever you were trying to imply.
- diputsmonro 3y agoIf the self driving system were worth it's salt, it wouldn't matter if the drivers weren't paying attention. Ergo, the system sucks, or is at the very least not nearly as good as Tesla likes to tout.
- rezonant 3y agoWell it's not like there's a self driving car system in operation today that does not require a human in the driver seat at all. Waymo has so much catching up to do.

- FergusArgyll 3y agoIt can be "worth it's salt" but the government still doesn't see it as such (for many possible reasons). I don't know if it is or isn't, I never drove one, but those are two completely different standards
- bheadmaster 3y agoDoesn't matter, the original point was about Google not being able to build a better self-driving system than Tesla, despite abundance of data, which is true, as far as I'm informed. Whether or not Tesla's self-driving system is "good enough" (for any chosen metric) is beyond the point. But I guess people these days just love to jump on the opportunity to hate whatever is trendy to hate at the moment.
- bb123 3y agoBy recall you mean a completely routine OTA software update done while the driver is asleep.
- imjonse 3y agoHow can it detect the driver is asleep?
- tempestn 3y agoAmusingly the infotainment system in our Model Y actually crashed on the way home tonight, and when it rebooted it decided to install the update then, while driving. Sent me a notification on my phone immediately afterwards. To be fair, the updates don't usually go that way.
- NotSammyHagar 3y agoWow, that never happened to me and is unacceptable. Was that for the infotainment only or the drive train? Just for others, they are separate systems, you can even safely reboot the infotainment (main display with maps, music etc) if you need to while driving, as it doesn't affect the drive train. I'm guessing it was not the drive train which would be incredibly dangerous.
