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.

Computation NOW cannot replicate what humans do with our rather limited senses.

"Self-driving" cars are being made NOW.

That means it's the NOW computation we worry about, not some hypothetical future computation capabilities. And the NOW computation cannot do the job safely with just vision.

Did I give you the impression that I was talking about some other time than NOW?

You were babbling about non-existent computing horsepower, yes.

Buh-bye. You're not worth engaging any further. Go kneel before Kaptain Ketamine and service to your heart's content.

Yes that was the point.

I don't know why you're upset when we seem to be in agreement.
