In case you were worried about the roads being too safe, you can rest easily knowing that Teslas will be rolling out with unsupervised “Full Self Driving” in a couple days.

It doesn’t seem to be going great, even in supervised mode. This one couldn’t safely drive down a simple, perfectly straight road in broad daylight :( Veered off the road for no good reason. Glad nobody got badly hurt.

We analyze the onboard camera footage, and try to figure out what went wrong. Turns out, a lot. We also talk through how camera-only autonomous cars work, Tesla’s upcoming autonomous taxi rollout, and how AI hallucinations figure into everything.

    I mean, look at airplanes and their autopilot and especially their auto landing systems.

    I think autonomous driving is limited by the quality and maintenance of rural roads, dirt and gravel roads, and the edge cases like going through drive thrus. Or really doing anything that isn’t “drive on road from a to b.” We use cars and trucks for all sorts of things in all sorts of places that aren’t “roads.”
