OK, its just a deer, but the future is clear. These things are going to start kill people left and right.

How many kids is Elon going to kill before we shut him down? Whats the number of children we’re going to allow Elon to murder every year?

      The day he said that “ReGULAr CAmErAs aRe ALl YoU NeEd” was the day I lost all trust in their implementation. And I’m someone who’s completely ready to turn over all my driving to an autopilot lol

    Full speed in the dark, I think most people would failed to avoid that. What’s concerning is it does not stop afterwards

      Note that part of the discussion is we shouldn’t settle for human limitations when we don’t have to. Notably things like LIDAR are considered to give these systems superhuman vision. However, Tesla said ‘eyes are good enough for folks, so just cameras’.

      The rest of the industry said LIDAR is important and focus on trying to make it more practical.

        Hell, even not having lidar The thing was pretty clearly a large road obstacle a second and a half out. They had a whole left lane open At least enough time to do a significant speed reduction.

        Remember when they removed ultrasonic and radar sensors in favor of “Tesla Vision”? That decision demonstrably cost people their lives and yet older, proven tech continues to be eschewed in favor of the cutting edge new shiny.

        I’m all for pushing the envelope when it comes to advancements in technology and AI in its many forms, but those of us that don’t buy Teslas never signed up to volunteer our lives as training data for FSD.

    1. Vehicle needed lidar
    2. Vehicle should have a collision detection indicator for anomalous collisions and random mechanical problems

    I notice nobody has commented on the fact that the driver should’ve reacted to the deer. It’s not Tesla’s responsibility to emergency brake, even if that is a feature in the system. Drivers are responsible for their vehicle’s movements at the end of the day.

      Then it’s not “Full self driving”. It’s at best lane assistance, but I wouldn’t trust that either.

      Elon needs to shut the fuck up about self driving and maybe issue a full recall, because he’s going to get people killed.

      That would be lovely if it wasn’t called and marketed as Full Self-Driving.

      You sell vaporware/incomplete functionality software and release it into the wild, then you are responsible for all the chaos it brings.

      True but if Tesla keeps acting like they’re on the verge of an unsupervised, steering wheel-free system…this is more evidence that they’re not. I doubt we’ll see a cybercab with no controls for the next 10 years if the current tech is still ignoring large, highly predictable objects in the road.

      In regards to the deer, it looks like it might have been hard to see for the driver. I remember learning in driversED that it is better to hit the animal instead of swerving to miss it as it might hit a car to your side, so maybe that is what they were thinking?

        Drivers Ed does not however say to ignore the brakes, either trying to avoid a collision. Especially to ignore the brakes after having hit something.

    Tesla’s approach to automotive autonomy is a unique one: Rather than using pesky sensors, which cost money, the company has instead decided to rely only on the output from the car’s cameras. Its computers analyze every pixel, crunch through tons of data, and then apparently decide to just plow into deer and keep on trucking.

      I mean, to be honest…if you are about to hit a deer on the road anyway, speed up. Higher chance the scrawny fucker will get yeeted over you after meeting your car, rather than get juuuuust perfectly booped into air to crash through windshield and into your face.

      Official advice I heard many times. Prolly doesn’t apply if you are going slow.

      Edit: Read further down. This advice is effing outdated, disregard. -_- God I am happy I’ve never had to put it i to test.

        Haven’t read down yet, but I bet odds are a bit better if you let go of the brake just before impact, to raise the front up a bit.

    For the 1000th time Tesla: don’t call it “autopilot” when it’s nothing more than a cruise control that needs constant attention.

      Real Autopilot also needs constant attention, the term comes from aviation and it’s not fully autonomous. It maintains heading, altitude, and can do minor course correction.

      It’s the “full self driving” wording they use that needs shit on.

      SRSLY?

      Have you ever been in a car, going fast?

      You can see in the video that the car does NOT brake hard before the crash. Not even in the very last second.

      What did YOU think what happens in the next second?

        What I think doesn’t matter. I’d like to actually see the whole video though. Then I nor you would need to hypothesize about it either.

    If you want to motivate people to action, frame it in terms of the property damage they’ll experience to their car when it hits a child. We’ve already seen how far the American public is willing to go for children’s lives, and it’s not very far at all.
