Craig Doty II, a Tesla owner, narrowly avoided a collision after his vehicle, in Full Self-Driving (FSD) mode, allegedly steered towards an oncoming train.
Nighttime dashcam footage from earlier this month in Ohio captured the harrowing scene: Doty’s Tesla rapidly approaching a train with no apparent deceleration. He insisted his Tesla was in Full Self-Driving mode when it barreled towards the train crossing without slowing down.
especially if you remove LIDAR.
The systems with LIDAR aren’t L5 either. It’s impossible to claim what is and isn’t needed when nobody has actually come up with a solution.
Never said they were, but LIDAR is a big improvement over “cameras and AI”. Most other manufactures use it, Tesla stopped using it because of cost sav… because their AI kicks ass and if eyes are enough for humans they’re enough for their cars too.
Hell any system where lives are involved should be triple-redundancy.
