Why? That's some bold assumptions. If it's going to fail, let it (as long as it's safe and legal), and see what it actually does.

- Kwpolska 2y agoWhy would he do something Tesla should have done? Why would he risk his life for a blog post? He’s a regular person trying to reach his destination, not a Tesla beta tester with Tesla-funded insurance in case the car tries to kills him.

- zeeZ 2y ago1. I explicitly mentioned to do it only as long as it was legal and safe to do so. 2. The post is about three test rides. Sure he may have had a destination to reach at the same time, but he was testing. 3. It probably wasn't a life or death situation the way it was written. "The car would have figured itself out eventually" does not sound immediately life threatening. 4. There's no basis for "the car would have figured itself out eventually". I felt the bits I quoted came off a bit too hand wavey for something that is labeled a test. Either don't include it at all, or see what actually happens (within reason).

- throwaway7ahgb 2y agoSo is FSD by the author and others being compared to perfect? Or is it compared to the worst drivers, average or best drivers? If we wait for perfect it will never happen.
- tverbeure 2y agoI expected it not make the most trivial mistakes. Literally no one would confuse that first exit lane to be the right one.
