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.
It’s not about how well or badly it worked when they were developing it, it’s about the developing process. It’s about the fact that they had to appease Elon Musk’s ego in all aspects of developing the self drive system. To a disastrous degree.
And again there is a world of difference between the iPhone or Open AI or Google Assistant not working right and a car driving itself not working right because when those other things don’t work nobody dies or gets hurt. But a car can mame and kill people extremely easily.
