Tesla Robotaxi Freaks Out and Drives into Oncoming Traffic on First Day (fuelarc.com)

I saw the Tesla Robotaxi:

  • Drive into oncoming traffic, getting honked at in the process.
  • Signal a turn and then go straight at a stop sign with turn signal on.
  • Park in a fire lane to drop off the passenger.

And that was in a single 22 minute ride. Not great performance at all.

Wow it's almost like having an AI with a 2D view to go off of is a bad idea? Hmmm who'd have thunk it?

You're telling me we're not at the point where self driving cars are a thing? But a Tech CEO said so? Who am I supposed to believe if not a Tech CEO?

Self-driving cars are a thing, Weymo is doing pretty fine.

But you might be able to spot a few (dozen) teeny-tiny (huge, bulky and extremely obvious) differences between a Waymo and a Tesla cybercab.

Lie dare you claim Waymo is better than Tesla

(it is a lidar joke, Waymo has lidar sensors which makes it way safer)
