All my data scientists coworkers who look at the map data that is supplied to these self-driving companies also say the same thing. Our Stanford PhD Data Scientist drives a 20 year old Toyota 😆
Well, good thing cities keep approving Tesla’s self-driving taxis then. What could possibly go wrong?
I don’t understand this. I have to pass a written exam and a driving test to be allowed to drive, and I am licensed by my state.
But a company can just say, “Trust me, bro,” and any municipal government can just respond, “Yeah, go ahead and put your cars on our roads”?
Show up to the DMV with several million dollars and I guarantee you can find someone who let’s you skip the test. Same deal.

It’s not. That’s the fucking problem. They’d had years to perfect this tech, and you’ve had years to mentally torture your wife, yet the odds remain the same.

Well, what other option was there? Not let Musk make baseless, impossible lies to defraud customers, or have him face consequences for them!? Be serious…
It was always flawed but at least predictable, until Karpathy left.
Now it’s shit.
could it count this as a stop sign, or is it too far gone?
How come Rivian can do it without all this drama? Costs less too.
I also love their charger network as a non-rivian owner. Seamless, sleek, fast, no faffing with an app…
But also their app has a route planner for EVs to account for charging stops?! And it lists all chargers, not just their own. I’m actually pleasantly surprised.
EDIT: well I just found out how they managed to roll their own route planner without me hearing anything about it and only seeing people talking about ABRP still: Rivian just bought ABRP, so their app is just calling ABRP in the background with only their specific car’s info. I opened ABRP today for it to tell me that I have to agree to Rivian’s TOS to continue using the app.
It’s surprising how they were kinda the first to promise this sort of thing, but they’re SO FAR BEHIND the other companies who got into it. Sure, the other companies don’t claim that they’ll be anything beyond really advanced cruise control, but even then, a lot of them are really close to breaking out of that.
waymo and another driverless car company had the advantage in norcal, tesla took to long to jump on the bandwagon.
