I have no confidence that Tesla will fix this before the planned Robo-Taxi rollout in Austin in 2 weeks.

After all, they haven't fixed it in the last 9 years that self-driving Teslas have been on the road.

Well DUH! It's trained off of the asshats who drive them, and most of them blow right past flashing red school buses and stop signs.

Listen. If we cared about safety we do something about it. This is where we are.

Kids just gotta run faster is all.

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

ok maybe this is easier to address: is there any safety test that a self driving Tesla doesn't fail?

They're very effective at preventing pregnancy and STIs.

I heard it in health class a bajillion times, so as a reminder, abstinence is the only effective birth cont- oh wait, no, no, Teslas are very effective at preventing pregnancy and STIs.

What the fuck Tesla 🥲

[-] madcaesar@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago

How the fuck, will this get the go ahead? In the US you can sue anyone for anything, how long before a class action gets filed against Tesla and their death traps?

Tesla owns the gov rn, litigation against tesla will be domestic terorism

Kid should have moved for the musk mutilater 2.00.

only a tesla could collide with the very road it's driving on

I get that's not what "hit the road" means but I stand by what I said

It's a Tesla, so probably mistook the dummy for an immigrant. In other words: Within specs

They’re only following the Norm theory (rest in peace), helping us kill the dummies so as a specie we grow intellectually

Luckily you can sabotage a robot car the same way you can sabotage a normal car. Actually there's more ways than a normal car.
