The people who knock self driving systems often forget how dumb a lot of drivers are.
Didn’t self driving fall for this exact thing
if elon_boss == True: …
ACME self driving.
People drive when they have to. If you’ve put in a double shift you’re not going to be at your best.
I also knock off car-first cities. A tram will not go full looney toons. And I expect that the professional drivers that are actually needed in a city will also not do it that often.
I’ve seen tram drivers do incredibly stupid things. But yeah, they generally stick to the rails.
Also fully autonomous subways have been operational since like 2010, unlike tezzla
The DLR has been going since 1987
you know those conveyor belts they have at airports and shit? we should just design a city with a shitton of those instead of roads.
You should read “The Roads Must Roll” short story by Robert Heinein. He takes this idea to a whole nother level.
Asimov also had that in his books. The idea was kinda popular in sci-fi back in the 50s-60s.
Asimov also noted that if someone fell on another person on that ‘road’ and it caused a domino effect, that would suck big time.
it also features lightly in jasper fforde’s shades of grey series. those roads are carnivorous
or the floating trams in Japan that use extremely strong magnets to suspend the trams to have more walking space underneath
A tram will not go full looney toons.
The tram will drive through the tunnel successfully after the car crashes into the wall, with roadrunner as the conductor sticking his tongue out as he passes
Few Years ago I read an article like " study finds you can get self driving cars to crash by throwing a human shaped pupped in front of them". I was like, yeah no shit that also works for humans.
pupped
pupped
what
Maybe puppet?
You are not dumb for making this mistake.
Ok but that’s just evil.
They painted it at a T junction, you can see there’s a road coming from the opposite direction, and at night, anybody who’s not local could have fallen for that and just assumed it was normal crossroads.
There’s also barely, if any, sidewalk in front of the painting, that could at least have alerted the driver.
It’s pure luck that the guy wasn’t driving fast, or there’d be dead bodies because of this stupid prank. This needs jail time, even if suspended.
It never actually happened, though the painting did briefly exist before being painted over in 2015.
It looks like a cartoon tunnel that no one should be fooled by unless they were severely distracted or impaired. The lack of signage should make it obvious.
Tesla’s on “full” ““auto”” “”“pilot”“” will plow right into what looks like a road. Mike or Mark Robber tested various self driving cars against a painted curtain with boxes behind it, Tesla’s not only failed to stop, they would disengage auto-pilot a split second before colliding, so doesn’t count as auto failure.
Tesla plows into emergency vehicles with lights flashing, it also tries to run into regular walls on occasion. It’s hardly relevant to anything about driving skills.
You would think differently if you were inside one of those emergency vehicles, or in front of one of those regular walls.
At night, I hope you drive with your lights on and see that the light somehow can not make it through the entry of the tunnel.
it’s a parking lot, a bar did that as a joke, not a graffiti art.
its not evil if they wanted suicide
I guess the driver forgot to say “meep meep”. That always worked for the bird.
Painting that on a junction like this just seems incredibly dangerous.
There is yellow paint on the curb, meaning there is some parking regulation there and this is not a junction. But i can see that the mural makes it look like one
Does the painter look like that?
Baited
how do people actually fall for this
its not even convincing
I mean, yeah, maybe it was dark and you couldn’t see that it was fake but seriously
how are you that stupid
how do people actually fall for this
It’s dark. They’re tired. They know a turn is coming up but can’t see it due to the lights from oncoming traffic
yeah yeah I stated that in my comment
if you read it
drunk
Or sick. Or simply overworked.
