WHY THE FUCK ARE PEOPLE STILL EXPECTING THIS GARBAGE TO WORK? Tesla’s “full self driving” crashes have been widely covered. Is it simple ignorance? Are they not aware of the news? Is it stubbornness? Laziness? Thinking that “it won’t happen to me”? Do they sincerely believe Musk’s lies?
I know that victim blaming isn’t the answer, and that’s not what I’m doing. I just want to know what’s going on in their heads.
What's mad is there are self-driving vehicles that do actually seem to work. There is even a few that have enough confidence to remove driving controls. But they use LiDAR, the one technology that musk refuse is to incorporate for some reason.
Cost, the reason is cost.
That's like saying that they're going to cut the engine out of a car because it makes the car more expensive. Yeah but it also makes the car work.
Self-driving without lidar is never going to work, and it's likely to get them sued for releasing it like that.
Yes. That's Tesla's entire design philosophy: the industry standard is holding this piece on with 5 bolts? Do it with 3. Cut every corner.
