A new car look without steering wheel and pedals. A working robovan. I don't think people understand the complexity of creating a hardware prototype of anything. This can't be ChatGPTed
- porphyra 2y agoYeah and making 50 new cars that drive around is a lot harder than making a one-off prototype.
- mplewis 2y agoWow, great! They put motors and wheels on a chassis with a screen and hardcoded them to drive in a loop. So impressive.
- porphyra 2y agoThe demo is open to the eventgoers and lets you choose your destination. It's quite polished and a lot more advanced than "hardcoding to drive in a loop".

- throwaway48476 2y agoWhy not demo it for the livestream then?
- jjulius 2y agoThat's a pretty generous way to describe a ~20-acre geofenced, low-speed ride using a pre-mapped area in which they likely tested this out quite a bit prior to the event.
- ihumanable 2y agoI saw a video from people in the car. The screen allowed them to pick between 2 different destinations. It’s not like they could just punch in any old address.
- lern_too_spel 2y agoThey've shown working shells of cars at every single reveal of their past cars without the interior filled in. We know they can do that. What's in question is whether they can make a driverless taxi.
