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.

    I was front wheels off the road by the time my reaction time hit the mouse button.

    And a mouse button is faster to activate than a steering wheel :,|
