This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Insurance fraud is going to bankrupt Tesla robotaxis faster than an incompetent CEO ever could.
There will be too many ways to defeat the cameras and not having LiDAR unlike the rest of the industry may prove to be found to be a failure of duty of care.
Some cartoon shit
Meep meep!
New stuff to add to the car kit bag for the 21st century
That's some Wiley Coyote shit if I ever saw it.
I am very glad that Elon and Trump have overreached and now Tesla is suffering. I hope Starlink is the next domino to fall.
Yup plus the European Union is making their alternative to launch in a year or 2
Good.
I'm not rooting for America to fail, but I'm 100% rooting for Elon to fail.
This would be hilarious if it weren't for shitty cars causing deaths.
That said, I always wondered why we don't find a system like RFID that could penetrate concrete and asphalt, and plant passive receivers in roads? We re-pave roads so damn often in this country (the U.S.) it seems like we could've knocked it out in the past couple of decades, minus our most rural areas.
I know RFID itself isn't strong enough, but I imagine that would've been an easier problem than figuring our complete self driving. Not to mention making GPS a secondary system for U.S. road travel in most cases.
Maybe it's just a dumb shower thought?
Mark Rober's video of the six tests (the remaining section is about mapping Space Mountain as Mark wanted to do since he was a kid)
Painted walls, the natural enemy of the Tesla.
I remember elon saying something along the lines of his camera system being just as good and they thusly don't need to employ things like LIDAR.
They obviously pre-cut the wall, probably for safety reasons, and they were like, let's make it a silly cartoon impact hole while we're at it.
Good job.
Beep beep! Damn things are using ACME LiDAR!
