    You’re talking about a few different things, here.

    • AI could potentially use that info, yes. Teslas don’t use AI to drive
    • Self driving cars do have the potential to be significantly safer, this is true. Telsa’s cars, through a series of missteps, are not anywhere near that potential, and in fact are hazards on the road. This is bad for developing true self-driving cars!
    • The only obstacle to progress being discussed is covered by a picture of a road…

        I’ve seen some things suggesting they’re testing it, I’m not seeing that they’ve deployed anything.

        Honestly, I’d expect AI to make the same mistake as their current systems, though, for a similar reason

          It’s definitely what’s in there now. It was a noticeable improvement when the change happened last year. The main thing for me was that it can now do round abouts! But I don’t really let it drive in anything but simple situations as it’s easier to drive than to monitor it.

          I’ve actually driven one quite a lot and as a software engineer myself, I think it’s amazing what they’ve accomplished. But it’s certainly not ready to be unsupervised, and except on a near empty highway, I find it more work/stress to supervise it rather than just drive myself. Elon is an asshole and a liar and ill never buy another tesla while he’s a shareholder, but the T3 is quite an amazing product.
