"I'm confident that Save full self driving (SFSD) will be ready next year"

That's the beauty of self-employment if you get a solid client base. I work 4 hours a day at most. 2 hours on average. If I don't feel it I don't work at all. And that 4 to 5 days a week.

Sorry for flexing. Don't let somebody else extract most of your value.

Good that the most powerful people in the world use it then

It's going to be considered an illegal terrorist boycott to not show up

Elon claims Tesla is already past that point.

Elon claims a lot of shit. Most of them are lies. He cannot prove with real data that "FSD" really crashes less.

Even if you’re skeptical of the claim, it’s clearly close enough to be concerned about.

Again, Teslas aren't even considered autonomous cars.

Don't get me wrong, I want to be optimistic. But currently it looks like this will take much longer to succeed than Elon and other hype men claimed.

We will soon be at the point, or already are, that your choice kills more people.

Where do you get that? From Elon?

Yes safety features and driving assistants make driving safer. Letting the car drive by itself not (especially with Teslas).

This stuff is highly regulated https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulation_of_self-driving_cars

Mercedes has the first autonomous car (L3) you can buy, which you can only activate at low speeds on certain roads in Germany. It's only possible because of Lidar sensors and when activated you are legally allowed to look at your phone as long as you can take over in 10 or so seconds.

You aren't allowed to do this in a Tesla, since the government doesn't categorize Teslas as autonomous vehicles which requires L3+.

No car manufacturer can sell real autonomous vehicles without government approval. Tesla FSD is just Marketing bs. Others are far ahead in terms of autonomous driving tech.

The thing is humans are horrible drivers, costing a huge toll in lives and property every year.

True

We may already be at the point where we need to deal with the ethics of inadequate self-driving causing too many accidents vs human causing more.

Are you talking about waymo vs human driver? It's currently (and maybe never) economical to roll that out globally. That would cost trillions and probably wouldn't even be feasible everywhere.

Teslas aren't autonomous but just mere driving assistants so you can't compare them. Otherwise you'd also have to include the Mercedeses (which btw have the first commercial Level 3 car), BMWs, BYDs, ...

but is it ethical to block Immature technology if it does overall save lives?

It would be very unethical to allow companies to profit from dangerous and unsafe technology that kills people.

Presumably we have the intelligence to set requirements before something can be called self-driving

We already have that https://www.sae.org/blog/sae-j3016-update

One of the strongest points of Linux is the package management. In 2025, the world of Linux package management is very varied, with several options available, each with their advantages and trade-offs over the others.

Since January 2024, Wikimedia has seen a 50 percent increase in Wikipedia’s bandwidth usage. However, this enormous increase is not due to human users suddenly reading Wikipedia articles or watching videos but to AI crawlers that automatically scrape content to train AI models. This creates new challenges for the foundation. The sudden increase in traffic […]
