Is this the new motto for autonomous vehicles? Move fast and break bones?
With these minor bugs, Tesla seems to be doing a solid job of poisoning the well for self-driving cars. I'd like to see them explain how their competitors should not be tarred with the same brush, once the political backlash hits.
It doesn't matter how many disclaimers you give before you turn on autopilot - a driver who focused on driving the car (As opposed to letting autopilot cruise) would have probably noticed a tractor driving across the road on a bright, sunny day.
It's a dangerous system. Instead of arguing about the trolley problem, I'd first like to see a car be good at making decisions that save its passengers.
I'm personally very worried about the poisoning the well angle. Tesla is playing fast and loose with this compared to Google and the results could strangle the whole field.
