(but human driver can be remote, but if there is no connection and road situation is too difficult car should be able to park itself without breaking road rules).

Major errors in this video. The accidents with Teslas, equipped with so called "autonomous driving systems", had nothing to do with FSD, which is what the video is all about. The accidents was also not necessarily caused by the AP. Statistics shows that their software reduces the number of accidents significantly. Also, Teslas autonomous capability is way beyond competitors technology-wise, but according to laws and regulation it is to be treated as level 2.

I don't see a problem with that. The autonomous car can react much faster and can calculate distances much more precisely. In the end cars are just objects moving with a specific speed. There are physical laws on what could happen. The autonomous car can just drive in a way that under no circumstances it crashes into something (except another car crashes into the autonomous car).

"We are no closer to autonomous driving," that's not true. Some of what they showed as ai failing was manual driving They said everyone paid $12k for autopilot That's not true.

Self-driving vehicles could actually make public transportation more attractive but anti-cars/« urban planners » are too narrow-minded

Why they removed the dislike button.

The issue is we are trying to replace drivers with computers instead of attempting to enhance safety and awareness with automation. When you advertise self driving to the general public, without the requisite training or information, you are advertising the same general population who for the most part do not even bother to read their owner's manual of their vehicle, let alone even bother to be safe on the road. We need to focus on improving safety culture and education in driving then supplement it with automation.

Cherry-picked examples of accidents occuring on a highway do not disprove that.

@@Mothball_man Well, if they would use autonomous cars, the car is not distracted by a phone. It can see all around all the time and doesn't get tired. So autonomous cars improve such situations. Human reaction is sometimes unpredictable, true. But they implement the systems to drive in a very safe way. And if that driver is on another lane, it would be their fault driving into you anyway. They also don't want that and pay attention. You can not always predict that. So even with the best psychological skills, cars can crash into you. The advantage of autonomous vehicles is, that they can see all around the car and calculate the trajectory of other cars. So they react before you even know what they react to. But why not combining both? There are some assistant systems, where you can intervene and have to pay attention. So you can get the best of both worlds. By the way, the best way to reduce car accidents is to build cities in a way, that you don't need cars. With just a fraction of the cars on the road and safe ways away from cars for people, there are much less accidents. We have the knowledge for that for decades.

As it is now, autonomous vehicles cannot identify subtle indications of driver distraction. They are not capable of imagining possible scenarios, vectoring those possibilities, and creating a safer margin based on something that might happen based on said subtleties.

to solve the issue of things the car might not be able to see they need to use special cameras every few meters that would be placed on the roads so then the car would be able to get info of unseen objects by proximity to these cameras, so then like 2-3 cameras that are close to the car would be sending info needed for the car to avoid crash with unseen objects that are obscured by another object (could be even another car)

“A group of robo-taxis malfunctioned and blocked an intersection-“ Yeaa that’s not suss at all

I'm sorry there's tons of channels dedicated to testing this self driving models. And all I'm seeing is this cars drive very efficiently and safely. With little to no driver takeover for miles in dense urban streets. This video is pure bs. Yeah we're not at the point of self driving cars yet but to say were not closing in is just wrong.

What if your driverless car hits and kills someone? Are you criminally responsible? Or does the car company get hit with a lawsuit? Seems like a lot of liability issues

You guys failed to do some research. @ 4:02 you start talking about the cow thing. Teslas new updtate include something called occupancy networks and occupancy maps, which detects every voxel of space and it’s velocity, to create a more redundant system and not have to rely on classification.

Its all about saving people from being hit by cars or those who die in a crash. Already a Tesla on Autopilot is 10x less likely to get in a crash then the average human here in the USA. That the actual statistics from over a billion miles of real world driving with autopilot over the past 8 years.

i don't know how tesla came up with the values but i can say it has to be a false statement. i couldn't find any numbers how many times the driver had to take over the control when the autopilot made a mistake or disabled itself, when i see the FSD videos the value can't be zero. did it work at fog, rain, snow, night? does it work on every street? when the system works only on a autobahn then it needs to be compaired with the safty statistic for autobahn and not with a median of everything.

There's a simple reason WHY.... Humans are unpredictable. A machine may take the perfect decision based on observed behavior. But it may still fail because humans could take an irrational decision. No machine can predict illogical, irrational, and many a time, intentionally detrimental decisions. Unless EVERY vehicle is autonomous, and living beings outside these vehicles are banned from stepping on the roads, Fully Self Driving will be next to impossible.

Agree completely. There's a lot more to driving than keeping to the road. You may need to differentiate between elderly and young people which in itself isn't easy for computers. An electric car will need to power not only the motor, aircon, lights and wipers but power at least two or preferably three powerful computers and relays motors etc for other essentials.

Yes. There have been self-driving cars driving for for-profit companies in closed betas for about four years. In 2020 they were allowed to be open to the public. It's limited areas, and limited services, but they do exist, and are constantly expanding.

this is a great opinion. Please share some actual facts next time so we can take your videos seriously

how can big name newspapers can be so wrong ?!

The thing that scares me is that Tesla Fanboys thinks they have an autonomous driving car right know, that's not even close to that.

Autonomous vehicles only need to be safer than human drivers. With machine learning and sensors being sorted I fully expect level 5 autonomy within 10 years.

when I was a kid I thought that cancer would be curable by now. While advances are many and fast some thing are so difficult that seems to stall at a point

Less complex with Ai coming. Could be easier if they just installed installed sensors in the road aswell

This is a great video. I´m a journalist from Denmark, making a documentary on a.i., where im also explaining the use of a.i-tech in self driving cars. Would it be ok if used a small part of this video in my explainer? Specifically 0:51 - 1:04. Kind regards!

E.M. is a supervillain in disguise 😂

I think the main reason why they stopped developing a fully automated vehicle is the immense scale of potential job losses and the resulting disruption of social order. What would happen to all the millions of unemployed drivers? They need to be occupied/controlled to have order in society, and not many of those people can be re-integrated to the workforce. So, in order not to disrupt the fabric of society, the Big Tech has abandoned the project for now.

You have to think about every single cities type of street signs, pedestrian crossings, construction zone props, just every single scenario and road structure that’s different city to city and state to state. I don’t see there being fully autonomous cars unless there are more standard and universal road signs (that are kept up and not overgrown with vines or knocked down), universal road lines, pedestrian and bike lanes, parking, and even installing sensors in these objects for the autonomous cars to communicate with or something like for special situations for unique parking lots or very busy cities. It’s all just too varied and too much to program and code.

Like Fusion, complex engineering challenges don’t reveal true depths of complexity’s until significant capital is committed and countless failures are overcome. Perhaps the question to ask is why Tesla is allowed to profit selling Hope of successful software and why the Beta lab they are permitted to operate within (Real roads with unwilling / unknowing participants) is an acceptable Engineering practice? Yes this is cool technology, but let’s stop selling hype and be transparent with all the challenges learned.

It' not complicated. It has not stalled. You think it's stalled because you are looking at the wrong guy.

AI flopping is testament to how we impressive humans are.

The elephant in the room is that they failed to answer is how safe are self-driving vehicles compared to human beings behind the wheel? That is THE question. Also, why do self-driving vehicles have to be 99.999999% safe? 50,000 people die a year behind the vehicle of a car. We could save tens of thousands of lives by deploying self-driving cars TODAY with their imperfections. This point is obvious but I see nobody discussing it.

Why does the technology have to be 99.99999% safe? What is the percentage for human drivers?

Human drivers crashes, so does it matter automated cars crashes, IF they crashes less than human drivers?

In regard to traffic lights, they need to not rely on visual information that the AI might get misleaded by so instead of visual input of the traffic light it would get a fully accurate and reliable simple info data (sent to the car) of true/false of go/stop from the traffic light...that way such issue of car driving at red light would cease to exist, also to solve the issue of things the car might not be able to see they need to use special cameras every few meters that would be placed on the roads so then the car would be able to get info of unseen objects by proximity to these cameras, so then like 2-3 cameras that are close to the car would be sending info needed for the car to avoid crash with unseen objects that are obscured by another object (could be even another car).

I find this re-assuring.

2:17 "with the exception of tesla, most cars need multiple sensors". Who wrote this script? Teslas aren't powered by magic, they have 8 cameras and forward facing radar. They process this info with a computer the same way all self driving technology. The difference is tesla don't use lidar and the use of solely cameras and forward facing radar means there isn't a big sensor suite on the roof.

The first self-driving vehicles we see will be lorries, not cars. In a lorry it is no problem if the sensor equipment coast 20000€.

Nothing can reach the best intelligence ever created. However, we can always try to come closer

@nils9853

There is no real comparison possible, due to two reasons. First is: When autopilot is used and would crash, most of the time the human driver intervenes and nothing happens. So this autopilot crash is not counted. And the other thing is, if autopilot sense that there will be a crash and there is nothing it can do about it, it just deactivates and the crash is counted as "autopilot off" crash aka human caused crash.

Besides the technical and legal aspects, the human one is often neglected. Anyone who owns a car wants to drive it. If not, you might as well take a taxi or public transport. The very essence of driving a car, as on a bicycle, a motorbike, a paraglider, etc. means being in control, being responsible for your vehicle, as well as for your life. This freedom is a powerful driving force in a society increasingly controlled by robots and computers.

Well actually when you’re driving a car you’re not in as much control as you think. You may be driving 100% safely but another driver around you might not have slept enough or might be drinking under the influence of alcohol or drugs or might simply be in attentive and driving through that stop light or stop sign and then unfortunately a crash In the statistics in 2019 in United States if I remember rightly over 35,000 people died in a car crash because of the reasons as above. Some or most of these could be eliminated if people always drives safely but they do not but if a robot taxi was more reliable it would not be drinking alcohol or needing to sleep etc.

Self driving cars are the equivalent of making a robot change betamax cassettes over in a video player.

Can't wait to have a chauffeur ready to drive me anywhere I wish. It'll be so cool! I did have the opportunity to test out Tesla lane keeping etc and it's very impressive; albeit a little nerve racking...
