Reuters throwing shade:
> Tesla is widely known for its so-called advanced driver-assistance systems, including Autopilot and Full Self-Driving (FSD).
(emphasis mine)
- ancillary 1y agoIt seems less like shade than precision about who's saying it's advanced.
- JumpCrisscross 1y agoTesla has rebranded its self-driving ambitions half a dozen times. (I’m honestly currently blanking on which of Robotaxi and Cybercab is the Level 4 product.) It’s fair to point out that “advanced driver-assistance” is another neologism of Musk’s, and not a term to be treated as comparable with other companies’ capabilities.
- MBCook 1y agoADAS is the industry standard term for things above basic cruise control isn’t it? It’s not a term Musk dreamed up. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_driver-assistance_system https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_driver-assistance_s...
- JumpCrisscross 1y agoIt is! Didn’t know—thank you.
- jdminhbg 1y agoThis mostly just demonstrates that the reporter doesn’t know what they’re talking about. ADAS is a term of art that encompasses everything above dumb cruise control, including things like adaptive cruise control or collision detection.
